Indirect facilitation between prey promotes asymmetric apparent competition [PDF]
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2022 Abstract Apparent competition is one mechanism that can contribute to the complex dynamics observed in natural systems, yet it remains understudied in empirical systems. Understanding the dynamics that shape the outcome of processes like apparent competition is vital for appreciating how they influence natural systems.

Apparent competition drives community-wide parasitism rates and changes in host abundance across ecosystem boundaries [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 Species sharing a common enemy such as a parasitoid or predator can indirectly affect one another. Here, Frost et al. use quantitative food-web data from communities of caterpillar hosts to show experimentally that apparent competition is important in ...

Ladybird-Mediated Indirect Interactions between Two Aphid Species When Using a Banker Plant System
Agronomy, 2022 Banker plant systems have the advantages of introducing natural enemies preventively and maintaining by providing alternative prey, thus controlling the pests sustainably.

Predator discrimination of prey promotes the predator-mediated coexistence of prey species
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 The predator discrimination of prey can affect predation intensity and the prey density dependence of predators, which has the potential to alter the coexistence of prey species.

European Journal of Entomology, 2022 Non-native species pose a threat to native organisms. When non-native and native species are closely related, the former can often competitively exclude the latter. Many studies have focused on competitive exclusion of native insect species by non-native

Sperm‐dependent asexual species and their role in ecology and evolution
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Sexual reproduction is the primary mode of reproduction in eukaryotes, but some organisms have evolved deviations from classical sex and switched to asexuality.

Limnological Review, 2020 The indirect interactions among multiple prey sharing a common predator characterize apparent competition. In conservation biological control involving mosquitoes and controphic prey against generalist insect predators, apparent competition may be a ...
