Effects of manakin gut passage on germination of a neotropical melastome shrub (Melastomataceae)
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 1, January 2025.In a paired germination experiment, we found that manakin gut passage accelerated germination of a common and widespread Melastome shrub, Miconia rubescens, which may function as an important pioneer in regenerating rainforest. Manakin species varied in their gut passage effects and within species, body mass correlated with greater and earlier ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 12, Page 3040-3052, December 2024.Our study shows that stressful conditions may trigger individual‐level trade‐offs in resource allocation and population‐level compensation among demographic rates. Demographic shifts arising from reintroductions in different environmental conditions may be considered by managers as a potential mechanism of resilience against environmental change ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 11, Page 2798-2808, November 2024.Our findings suggest that the spatial distribution of flowering wild plants can inform movement patterns of lacewings and other flower‐visiting insects in agricultural landscapes. In addition, the location of floral resources in the landscape is important for its capacity to sustain natural enemies. Given the strong reliance of lacewings on pollen from

Suppression of reed canarygrass by assisted succession: A sixteen‐year restoration experiment
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1805-1816, August 2024.Invasive species management and the restoration of target plant communities can be aided by assisting successional trajectories that have stalled. We document a restoration strategy for forests invaded by shade‐intolerant invaders that is both effective and economical, as only a simple site preparation and single planting effort is required ...
