Bottleneck effect on intra- and interspecific competition in Drosophila malerkotliana.

, 1999
Intra- and interspecific competition experiments involving control and bottleneck lines of monomorphic and polymorphic populations of D. malerkotliana with D. nasuta nasuta were carried out. Productivity and population size were evaluated in these lines.

Intra- and Interspecific Competition Between Ile1781Leu ACCase-Resistant and Susceptible Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense) Populations and Corn or Sunflower

Agronomy
The evolution of herbicide resistance can increase, decrease, or have no effect on the growth rate, competitive ability, and fitness of field-selected populations. The growth response of an ACCase-resistant (R) johnsongrass [Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers.]

Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

Interspecific Competition Among Hawaiian Forest Birds

, 1985
The object of this study was to determine whether interspecific competition modified local geographic distribution, after taking into account the effect of habitat structure. The tendencies for 14 passerine birds to have positive or negative associations

Preharvest supplemental lighting enhances productivity and modulates postharvest quality in hydroponically grown Apulian unripe melon ‘Scopatizzo’ (Cucumis melo L.)

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preharvest light management is increasingly used to enhance yield and fruit quality in soilless systems, yet its effects on unripe melon fruits remain poorly understood. This study evaluated the impact of supplemental red–blue light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting applied during cultivation in a closed‐cycle hydroponic system on ...

Community composition mediates interannual shifts in pollinators' roles within networks

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plant–pollinator networks are complex structures that describe interactions between plants and pollinators within ecological communities. Understanding how these networks are organized is crucial for the preservation of populations, communities, and ecosystem services, because network structure is linked to the function and resilience of communities ...

Sexual reproduction in invasive Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) in south Sweden

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
To understand the potential for northward expansion of knotweeds into currently uninvaded regions, it is crucial to assess the potential for sexual reproduction alongside the ongoing vegetative spread. For that reason, we tested viability in Reynoutria japonica seeds in south Sweden, a region where viable seeds had not been previously reported ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

Oikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

The alteration of interspecific interaction responded to various relative sowing time in wheat/maize intercropping

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionAn interspecific interaction is an important reason for the yield advantage of interspecific cropping compared with sole cropping, and the relative sowing time of species is an important factor affecting interspecific competitiveness.
