The interacting effects of precipitation and microhabitat on non‐native seed predation are contingent on temporal dynamics

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how different drivers of global change interact to shape ecological processes remains a major challenge in ecology. Climate change is reshuffling the interactions that structure communities, with major implications for biological invasions.

The importance of wild meat and freshwater fish for children's nutritional intake in the Congo Basin

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat and freshwater fish are widely consumed in the Congo Basin, but in some areas, they are at risk of disappearing due to unsustainable hunting and fishing and changes in their habitat. Wild meat is also at risk of being eliminated from local diets due to potential policy changes such as wild meat bans.

Inferences on the population structure and colonization process of the invasive oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel).

open access: yes, 2007
The phytophagous insects of the Tephritidae family offer different case histories of successful invasions. An example is Bactrocera dorsalis sensu stricto, the oriental fruit fly which has been recognized as a key pest of Asia and the Pacific.

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Chaotic Fruit Fly Optimization Algorithm

open access: yes, 2014
Fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA) was a novel swarm intelligent algorithm inspired by the food finding behavior of fruit flies. Due to the deficiency of trapping into the local optimum of FOA, a new fruit fly optimization integrated with chaos ...
