Neutral effects of low‐intensity dog training on northern bobwhite vital rates

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Indirect effects of hunting can lead to changes in population dynamics, which can be caused by trait‐mediated effects such as, but not limited to, changes in behavior, reproduction, and physiological responses. Our understanding of the effects of activities associated with hunting such as dog training may incur trait‐mediated effects, and ultimately ...

Plant–plant nitrogen transfer is prevalent in a semi‐arid shrubland and affects the foliar N content of recipient plants

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In agroecosystems, it is well known that nitrogen (N) can be transferred below‐ground among plants, especially between legumes and forage crops. However, we still lack a deep mechanistic understanding of this ecological process and its implications in plant communities,
