Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

Pollinator community composition and pollen resource use in calcareous grasslands under different landscape contexts across Europe

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
In this paper, we show that pronounced differences in pollinator communities exist between grasslands embedded in contrasting agricultural landscape contexts. Opportunistic foraging strategies of most pollinators resulted in large interaction turnover, but these shifts did not translate into major changes in overall network structure, most likely as a ...

From individuals to networks: The role of variation in plant–pollinator communities' responses to global change

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper argues that variation among individuals—not just species differences—can shape the sensitivity, robustness and resilience of plant–pollinator communities under global change. By linking individual traits and interaction structure to network dynamics, it provides a new framework and future research directions for predicting community ...

Optimising daily sampling of plant–bee interaction networks

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Daily variation in ecological interaction networks is rarely quantified due to limited temporal sampling, yet network structure may change substantially within a single day. We show that plant–bee networks exhibit strong intraday shifts in composition and structure, and that sampling distributed across key daily periods better captures network ...

Functional traits explain responses of Appalachian birds to vertical and horizontal forest structure

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The study of bird–forest relationships dates back decades, but rarely have the relationships of functional traits to 3D forest structure responses been considered for dozens of species at regional scales. Abstract Species interact with habitat based on their functional traits, but it is unclear how specific traits interact with the multiple components ...
