Rethinking Biological Invasions as a Metacommunity Problem
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Perhaps more than any other ecological discipline, invasion biology has married the practices of basic science and the application of that science. The conceptual frameworks of population regulation, metapopulations, supply-side ecology, and community ...

Differential Efficacy of Glycoside Hydrolases to Disperse Biofilms
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Chronic wounds will impact 2% of the United States population at some point in their life. These wounds are often associated with a reoccurring, chronic infection caused by a community of microorganisms encased in an extracellular polymeric substance ...

Woodpeckers can act as dispersal vectors for fungi, plants, and microorganisms
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Bird‐mediated dispersal is presumed to be important in the dissemination of many different types of organisms, but concrete evidence remains scarce. This is especially true for biota producing microscopic propagules.

Historic Wooden Shipwrecks Influence Dispersal of Deep-Sea Biofilms
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Wood arrives on the seabed from natural and anthropogenic sources (e.g., wood falls and wooden shipwrecks, respectively) and creates seafloor habitats for macro-, meio- and microbiota.

Connectivity of Striped Marlin From the Central North Pacific Ocean
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Striped marlin, Kajikia audax, have been in overfished condition in the Western and Central North Pacific, and overfishing is still occurring, prompting an urgent need to devise conservation and management measures based on the best, current information ...

Testing the Resource Hypothesis of Species–Area Relationships: Extinction Cannot Work Alone
Microorganisms, 2022 The mechanisms that underpin the species–area relationship (SAR) are crucial for both the development of biogeographic theory and the application of biodiversity conservation.
