Invasive giant river prawns as opportunistic, generalist predators in the Amazon Delta: Insights from metabarcoding

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Invasive species alter habitats and biological communities. The giant river prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man 1879) was introduced to Brazil for aquaculture, and invasive populations have established in the Amazon Delta region where they are believed to pose a risk to the native aquatic fauna.

Can farmer organization membership improve household food security and nutrition? Evidence from Northern Ghana

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 180-202, November 2024.
Abstract We examine the impact of farmer organization (FO) membership on food and nutrition security among rural rice farmers, using cross‐sectional data from a household survey from Ghana. We employ an endogenous switching regression (ESR) model to account for selection bias from observed and unobserved factors. Our findings show that participation in

Diversified cropping strengthens herbivore regulation by providing seasonal resource continuity to predators

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1829-1840, August 2024.
Our results suggest that locally provided resource continuity through diversified cropping practices bolster biological pest regulation, thus underline the importance of lesser disturbance in arable ecosystems for the provision of ecosystem services. Enhanced predator species richness together with availability of alternative prey through the season ...

Early Colonial Diet in El Japón, Xochimilco, Mexico: Examining dietary continuity through stable isotope analysis of bone collagen and bioapatite

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 184, Issue 3, July 2024.
Location of the Colonial period site of El Japón (San Gregorio Atlapulco, Mexico City). Abstract Objectives Early colonial documents from central Mesoamerica detail raising and planting of European livestock and crops alongside native ones. The extent to which Indigenous people, especially of the rural commoner class, consumed newly introduced foods is

Food insecurity and dietary diversity among food aid recipients in urban and rural areas at the covid‐19 outbreak: An exploratory study

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 33-47, May 2024.
Abstract The covid‐19 pandemic has affected food aid. This paper reports an exploratory study to estimate the prevalence and degree of food insecurity, household dietary diversity score (HDDS), and the association with demographic, social, and economic characteristics of health status in a sample of food aid recipients in urban and rural areas of ...

Resource partitioning in a novel herbivore assemblage in South America

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 93, Issue 5, Page 606-618, May 2024.
DNA metabarcoding was used to reveal differences in herbivory strategy among large herbivores at an Argentinian rewilding site. Based on diet composition, we find little evidence for resource competition between species. Instead, recently reintroduced native species and historically introduced non‐natives are likely expanding the range of herbivory ...
