Elastases from Human and Canine Granulocytes, II. Interaction with Protease Inhibitors of Animal, Plant, and Microbial Origin

Hoppe-Seyler's Zeitschrift Für Physiologische Chemie, 1977
Inhibitors of animal, plant, and microbial origin were tested against human and canine granulocytic elastases. The trypsin-chymotrypsin inhibitors from dog submandibular glands, from soybeans (Bowman-Birk) and from chickpeas show strong interaction with these proteases (Ki = 10(-8) - 10(-9)M).

An Unusual Animal-Plant Interaction: Feeding of Schomburgkia tibicinis (Orchidaceae) by Ants

American Journal of Botany, 1989
The hollow pseudobulbs of Schomburgkia tibicinis (Orchidaceae; Central America) serve as domatia for many species of ants. The ants pack many of the pseudobulbs with debris including dead insects, plant material, and sand. Ants were fed 14C‐labelled D‐glucose in honey, killed, and placed in the pseudobulbs for up to eight weeks. Samples of plant tissue

Animal–plant interactions

2009
Population dynamics of plant species of coastal sand dunes is influenced directly, both above and below the soil surface, by a wide variety of organisms. Plants serve as sources of carbon and pathogens including viruses, insects, bacteria, fungi, birds, and mammals of various kinds.

Indirect interactions mediated by leaf shelters in animal–plant communities

Population Ecology, 2001
AbstractLeaf shelters indirectly mediate interactions in animal–plant communities by providing the occupants with several kinds of benefits, as physical ecosystem engineering. The occupants benefit from favorable microhabitat, reduction in antiherbivore defense, and protection from natural enemies. The primary shelter maker has to spend energy and time

Animal-Plant Interaction, Volume V

The intricate relationships between animals and plants havefascinated humans for centuries. From the majestic pollinationof flowers by birds and bees to the humble symbiosis betweenfungi and tree roots, these interactions form the backbone ofecosystems worldwide.

Animal-Plant Interaction, Volume 4

We quote a statement from Einstein about bees “If the bees disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would have only 4 years of life left; no more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man”, but we never think about the basic interactions between plant and animals.
