Interspecific resource competition effects on fisheries revenue. [PDF]
In many fisheries multiple species are simultaneously caught while stock assessments and fishing quota are defined at species level. Yet species caught together often share habitat and resources, resulting in interspecific resource competition.

Intercropping of maize (Zea mays L.) and peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) often results in greater yields than the respective sole crops. However, there is limited knowledge of aboveground and belowground interspecific interactions between maize and peanut ...

Effects of Intra- and Interspecific Plant Density on Rhizosphere Bacterial Communities [PDF]
There have been very few studies on the effects of plant competition on the rhizosphere bacterial community. To investigate the impacts of intra- and interspecific plant competition, we analyzed the responses of rhizosphere bacterial communities to plant

Intraspecific Versus Interspecific Scaling of Metabolic Rate: Tests of the Metabolic Theory of Ecology Across Biological Hierarchies [PDF]
The Metabolic Theory of Ecology (MTE) proposes universal constants for the scaling of metabolic rate (BMR) with body mass and temperature. However, the validity of these constants across different biological hierarchies, specifically within versus ...

Roles of clonal parental effects in regulating interspecific competition between two floating plants
Parental effects can influence offspring fitness, which may further impact interspecific competition. However, few studies have tested the role of clonal parental effects in regulating interspecific interactions and examined the underlying mechanisms. We

Direct and indirect effects of climate change on a prairie plant community. [PDF]
Climate change directly affects species by altering their physical environment and indirectly affects species by altering interspecific interactions such as predation and competition.

Life-history traits are directly linked to fitness, and therefore, can be highly adaptive. Livebearers have been used as models for understanding the evolution of life histories due to their wide diversity in these traits.

Spatial co-occurrence patterns of sympatric large carnivores in a multi-use African system.
Interspecific interactions can be a key driver of habitat use, and must be accounted for in conservation planning. However, spatial partitioning between African carnivores, and how this varies with scale, remains poorly understood.

Habitat isolation reduces intra- and interspecific biodiversity and stability
Fragmentation is predicted to reduce biodiversity and stability by increasing habitat isolation and impeding dispersal among patches. These effects may manifest at both the interspecific and intraspecific levels, yet few studies have simultaneously ...
