Comparing single- and mixed-species groups in fruit flies: differences in group dynamics, but not group formation [PDF]
Journal of Heredity, 2021 AbstractMixed-species groups describe active associations among individuals of 2 or more species at the same trophic level. Mixed-species groups are important to key ecological and evolutionary processes such as competition and predation, and research that ignores the presence of other species risks ignoring a key aspect of the environment in which ...

Correlations between morphological fruit types, fruit and seed colors, and functional groups [PDF]
Biota Neotropica, 2021 Abstract: The associations between morphological fruit types, fruit and seed colors, and functional plant traits: life forms, epiphytism, physiology, nutritional relationships, fruit phenology, and successional stage, were determined for 1,139 plant species from contrasting plant communities. Texture and dehiscence were closely related.

Risk of Extreme Early Frosts in Almond
Horticulturae, 2022 In almond, late frost is the main factor determining the viability of the culture in cold areas, and late flowering remains the key factor in addressing this issue. Climate change is causing an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events. In 2021,

Transfer of radionuclides to fruits : The activities of the biomass fruits working group [PDF]
Radioprotection, 2002 Given the potential radiological significance of the transfer of radionuclides to fruit, a Fruits Working Group was set up in 1997 within the framework of the Programme on BIOsphere Modelling and ASSessment (BIOMASS), promoted by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and in co-operation with the International Union of Radioecology (IUR).
