Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Effect of container size and larval competition on adult fitness of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

, 2016
Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae), co-occur in a variety of water-filled containers where they compete for limited resources. Aedes albopictus larvae often outcompete those of Ae.

Nitrogen dynamic in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) agroecosystem as influenced by intra- and interspecific competition [PDF]

Planta Daninha
Background: The study of both intra- and interspecific competitions in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) agroecosystem is quite complex and it is essential to understand the influence of nitrogen in these competitions.

Competition from sea to mountain: Interactions and aggregation in low‐diversity monogenean and endohelminth communities in twospot livebearer Pseudoxiphophorus bimaculatus (Teleostei: Poeciliidae) populations in a neotropical river

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The role of interspecific interactions in structuring low‐diversity helminth communities is a controversial topic in parasite ecology research. Most parasitic communities of fish are species‐poor; thus, interspecific interactions are believed to be ...

Species assembly in model ecosystems, II: Results of the assembly process [PDF]

, 2010
In the companion paper of this set (Capitan and Cuesta, 2010) we have developed a full analytical treatment of the model of species assembly introduced in Capitan et al. (2009).

Competition for nitrogen between Fagus sylvatica and Acer pseudoplatanus seedlings depends on soil nitrogen availability

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Competition for nitrogen (N), particularly in resource-limited habitats, might be avoided by different N acquisition strategies of plants. In our study, we investigated whether slow-growing European beech and fast-growing sycamore maple seedlings avoid ...

Apparent competition through facilitation between Melanoides tuberculata and Biomphalaria glabrata and the control of schistosomiasis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2003
Interactions between two species that result in reduced growth rates for both and extinction of one of the species are generally considered cases of asymmetric interspecific competition.

Changes in locusts diversity, niche and interspecific association at different altitudes in the Ili River basin of China

Ecological Indicators
Species diversity at different altitudes exhibits different variation patterns. In alpine ecosystems, species migration from low to high altitudes has changed the intensity of interspecific competition and association, inevitably adjusting or changing ...

Injuries in deep time: interpreting competitive behaviours in extinct reptiles via palaeopathology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For over a century, palaeopathology has been used as a tool for understanding evolution, disease in past communities and populations, and to interpret behaviour of extinct taxa. Physical traumas in particular have frequently been the justification for interpretations about aggressive and even competitive behaviours in extinct taxa.
