Species-specific plant-mediated effects between herbivores converge at high damage intensity. [PDF]

open access: yesEcology, 2022
Abstract Plants are often exposed to multiple herbivores and densities of these attackers (or corresponding damage intensities) often fluctuate greatly in the field. Plant‐mediated interactions vary among herbivore species and with changing feeding intensity, but little is known about how herbivore identity and density interact to determine plant ...

Density‐dependent reproductive success among sympatric dipterocarps during a major mast fruiting event

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 742-754, July 2023., 2023
Our study highlighted the density‐dependent variation in reproductive success between abundant and non‐abundant dipterocarp species at the pre‐dispersal stage. Non‐abundant species achieved greater reproductive success by synchronizing reproduction with the masting of abundant species, which might be an important mechanism for sustainability of rare ...

The value of hybrid and non‐native ash for the conservation of ash specialists is limited following late stages of emerald ash borer invasion

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 355-370, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Widespread mortality of native North American ash caused by emerald ash borer (EAB; Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) threatens native arthropod biodiversity, but hybrid ash populations with resistance to EAB may serve a role in supporting threatened communities of arthropods in managed landscapes impacted by EAB.

A trait‐based plant economic framework can help increase the value of reforestation for conservation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
The functional relationship between plant diversity and diversity of organisms in higher trophic levels is a fundamental ecological question of what is important for understanding the contribution of restoration of plant communities for conservation.

Invasion disharmony in the global biogeography of native and non‐native beetle species

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 11, Page 2050-2062, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim The concept of “island disharmony” has been widely applied to describe the systematic over‐ and under‐representation of taxa on islands compared to mainland regions. Here, we explore an extension of that concept to biological invasions. We compare biogeographical patterns in native and non‐native beetle (Coleoptera) assemblages from around

Biological Flora of the British Isles: Crataegus monogyna

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 541-571, January 2021., 2021
Crataegus monogyna is a shrub or small tree native to almost the whole of Britain, and to Europe generally excepting its northern and southern margins. Hawthorn has a wide ecological range and is an important component of hedges. It can colonize derelict or abandoned arable land forming dense scrub and thicket.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paroplapoderus tentator Faust (Coleoptera: Attleabidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
For the first time, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of Paroplapoderus tentator Faust, which is 163,47 bp in length. The total number of genes in the genome was 41, including 13 PCGs; 2 rRNA genes; 19 tRNA genes; and 7 replication initiation ...
