Biotic resistance in marine environments

Ecology Letters, 2013
AbstractBiological invasions depend in part on the resistance of native communities. Meta‐analyses of terrestrial experiments demonstrate that native primary producers and herbivores generally resist invasions of primary producers, and that resistance through competition strengthens with native producer diversity.

Biotic resistance to plant invasions.

2020
Biotic resistance to plant invasions takes many forms: consumption by native herbivores, competition with native plants and infection by native pathogens. But how often does biotic resistance prevent the damaging monocultures that typify the most problematic plant invaders, and how often is biotic resistance overwhelmed by the direct and indirect ...

RESISTANCE TO BIOTIC STRESS IN FRUIT TREES

Acta Horticulturae, 2003
Resistance to pests and diseases is a highly desirable objective in fruit breeding but is a long-term endeavor. It requires appropriate tests for early screening and an analysis of host-parasite interactions for durability of resistance. Host resistance is considered durable when it remains effective for a long period despite an intensive exposure to ...

Genomic Designing for Biotic Stress Resistant Cocoa Tree

2022
Cocoa tree (Theobroma cacao L.) is cultivated mainly in tropical regions and produces beans that are used for chocolate manufacture. Worldwide, cocoa bean production is threatened by biotic stresses, mainly fungus, oomycetes, virus and other pests. The understanding of the determinism of the plant-pathogen interactions as well as the different and ...

Biotic resistance and island susceptibility hypotheses.

2018
Abstract The biotic resistance hypothesis sensu stricto is also known as the diversity-invasibility hypothesis. It proposes that ecosystems with high biodiversity are more resistant against non-native species than ecosystems with lower biodiversity.

Trophic rewilding revives biotic resistance to shrub invasion

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2020
Trophic rewilding seeks to rehabilitate degraded ecosystems by repopulating them with large animals, thereby re-establishing strong top-down interactions. Yet there are very few tests of whether such initiatives can restore ecosystem structure and functions, and on what timescales.
