Interspecific Interactions I: Predation and Parasitism
2020Predation and parasitism are dominant forms of interspecific interactions in aquatic ecosystems. Predation effects have been more commonly quantified in aquatic ecosystems than disease. Diet studies documenting predation are substantially more common that routine monitoring for disease in aquaculture systems.

Interspecific Interactions Among Asian Honeybees
2010The behavioural relationships of mixed-species colonies are reviewed and attempts made to uncover those features of their behaviour that are conserved subsequent to speciation. Both Apis cerana and Apis mellifera in mixed-colonies exhibited typical retinue behaviour towards heterospecific queens.

Interspecific Interactions II: Competition and Mutualism
2020Competition and mutualism are important forms of biotic interaction in aquatic communities. Quantification of the population and community-level effects of these interactions has historically been less common in fisheries analyses than predation. In part, this reflects the difficulties in conducting controlled experiments for larger-bodied organisms in

Interspecific Interactions among Tropical and Subtropical Freshwater Fungi
Microbial Ecology, 1999> Abstract Twenty-seven species of tropical and subtropical fungi isolated from freshwater were examined for evidence of interspecific interactions, which are important in determining the ecological roles of fungi. Evidence for interspecific interactions was examined by inoculating paired fungi 25 mm apart on the surface of agar plates.

Interspecific interactions in a methane‐utilizing mixed culture
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1980AbstractA two‐member methane‐utilizing mixed culture of bacteria, formed by combining two pure cultures isolated from a naturally occurring methane‐utilizing mixed culture, was studied in continuous culture. From the nutritional requirements and substrate ranges of the pure cultures, a mechanism for the interspecific interactions occurring in the mixed

Heterogenous interspecific interactions in a host–parasite system
International Journal for Parasitology, 2006Macroparasites of vertebrates usually occur in multi-species communities, producing infections whose outcome in individual hosts or host populations may depend on the dynamics of interactions amongst the different component species. Within a single co-infection, competition can occur between conspecific and heterospecific parasite individuals, either ...

Predicting rates of interspecific interaction from phylogenetic trees
Ecology Letters, 2014AbstractIntegrating phylogenetic information can potentially improve our ability to explain species' traits, patterns of community assembly, the network structure of communities, and ecosystem function. In this study, we use mathematical models to explore the ecological and evolutionary factors that modulate the explanatory power of phylogenetic ...

Replacement interaction diagrams in interspecific competition experiments
Australian Journal of Ecology, 1980Abstract Replacement interaction diagrams offer a new approach in displaying results of interspecific competition experiments. They allow visual assessment of both actual and relative responses of two species in a replacement series to treatments arranged in a factorial array.

Modifying modifiers: what happens when interspecific interactions interact?
The Journal of animal ecology, 20121. The strength of the trophic link between any given pair of species in a food web is likely to depend on the presence and/or densities of other species in the community. How these trophic interaction modifications (TIMs) interact with one another to produce a net modifying effect is an important but under-explored issue. 2. We review several specific

Interspecific interactions in the marine rotifer microcosm
Hydrobiologia, 1997Copepods and protozoans often co-exist in marine rotifer mass cultures. Interspecific interaction between the rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis Tschugunoff and eight other zooplankton species, namely Brachionus plicatilis O. F. Muller (rotifer), Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin (cladoceran), Tigriopus japonicus Mori, Acartia sp. (copepod), Euplotes sp.,
