Interspecific variability in seed germination and seedling emergence dynamics of cover crop species

open access: yes
Cover cropping holds the potential for spatio-temporal diversification of cropping systems, which can help address food security and enhance environmental sustainability (Quintarelli et al. 2022). Yet, the global adoption of cover crops (CCs) by farmers is limited.

Resource quantity affects infection success and impacts of a microsporidian on hosts

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Resource quantity in the environment often changes over time and influences the nutritional status of hosts that may encounter parasites. If resource availability significantly alters both infection success and within‐host growth of a parasite, fluctuations in resources may underlie the seasonal disease outbreaks that have been observed for some ...

Resource limitation and competition shape reproductive allocation and synchrony

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The dynamics of reproductive allocation (RA) in herbaceous plant communities, particularly in response to varying environmental conditions such as drought stress and competitive interactions, remain underexplored. This study aims to fill this gap by hypothesising that both belowground resource limitation and the presence of dominant species ...

Distilling food web dynamics: top–down and bottom–up drivers of extinction and trophic cascades

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Quantifying population dynamics is a fundamental challenge in ecology and evolutionary biology, particularly for species that are cryptic, microscopic, or extinct. Traditional approaches rely on continuous representations of population size, but in many cases, the precise number of individuals is unknowable.
