Influence of Temperature on Intra- and Interspecific Resource Utilization within a Community of Lepidopteran Maize Stemborers. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Competition or facilitation characterises intra- and interspecific interactions within communities of species that utilize the same resources. Temperature is an important factor influencing those interactions and eventual outcomes. The noctuid stemborers,

Impacts of Interspecific Interactions on Crop Growth and Yield in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)/Maize (Zea mays L.) Strip Intercropping under Different Water and Nitrogen Levels

Agronomy, 2022
Interspecific interactions and recovery growth play an important role in crop growth, development and ultimately yield in intercropping systems. However, the impact of different water and nitrogen levels on intercropping production, interspecific ...

Interactions between carnivore species: limited spatiotemporal partitioning between apex predator and smaller carnivores in a Mediterranean protected area

Frontiers in Zoology, 2023
Background There is need of information on ecological interactions that keystone species such as apex predators establish in ecosystems recently recolonised.

Diet quality determines interspecific parasite interactions in host populations [PDF]

, 2014
The widespread occurrence of multiple infections and the often vast range of nutritional resources for their hosts allow that interspecific parasite interactions in natural host populations might be determined by host diet quality. Nevertheless, the role

Volatiles in inter-specific bacterial interactions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The importance of volatile organic compounds for functioning of microbes is receiving increased research attention. However, to date very little is known on how inter-specific bacterial interactions effect volatiles production as most studies have been ...

Mouse Lemurs in an Assemblage of Cheirogaleid Primates in Menabe Central, Western Madagascar – Three Reasons to Coexist

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Ecological communities are structured by interactions between coexisting species that mutually influence their distribution and abundance. Ecologically similar species are expected to exclude one another from suitable habitat, so the coexistence of two ...

Duration of Exposure to Elevated Temperature Affects Competitive Interactions in Juvenile Reef Fishes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Climate change will affect key ecological processes that structure natural communities, but the outcome of interactions between individuals and species will depend on their thermal plasticity.

Expanding the concept of social behavior to interspecific interactions [PDF]

, 2021
In pretty much any species, an individual's survival and reproduction depends crucially on the outcome of interactions with other individuals. Key interactions may take place between individuals of the same species but also between individuals belonging

Influence of Temperature on the Interaction for Resource Utilization between Fall Armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), and a Community of Lepidopteran Maize Stemborers Larvae

Insects, 2020
Intra- and interspecific interactions within communities of species that utilize the same resources are characterized by competition or facilitation.

Daily Temperature Fluctuations Alter Interactions between Closely Related Species of Marine Nematodes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
In addition to an increase in mean temperature, climate change models predict decreasing amplitudes of daily temperature fluctuations. In temperate regions, where daily and seasonal fluctuations are prominent, such decreases in daily temperature ...
