When biodiversity preservation meets biotechnology: The challenge of developing synthetic microbiota for resilient sustainable crop production

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 5-15, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Agriculture needs to develop novel strategies and practices to meet the increasing global food demand, in an ecological and economical sustainable framework. The plant‐associated microbiota is gaining increasing attention as part of these strategies since it strongly contributes to plant health, nutrition, and resilience to environmental ...

When are bacteria really gazelles? Comparing patchy ecologies with dimensionless numbers

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 25, Issue 5, Page 1323-1341, May 2022., 2022
From micro to planetary scales, patchiness is ubiquitous in ecosystems, but it is not always clear when it must be modelled explicitly or if there are general dynamics underlying the innumerable ecological interactions occurring in patchy environments. To address these questions, we applied a conceptual framework based on dimensional analysis (Grünbaum,

Sex, competition and mimicry: an eco‐evolutionary model reveals unexpected impacts of ecological interactions on the evolution of phenotypes in sympatry

open access: yesOikos, Volume 130, Issue 11, Page 2028-2039, November 2021., 2021
Phenotypic evolution in sympatric species can be strongly impacted by species interactions, either mutualistic or antagonistic. Heterospecific reproductive behaviours between sympatric species have been shown to favour phenotypic divergence of traits used as sexual cues. Those traits may also be involved in local adaptation or in other types of species

Biodiversity as insurance: from concept to measurement and application

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 5, Page 2333-2354, October 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT Biological insurance theory predicts that, in a variable environment, aggregate ecosystem properties will vary less in more diverse communities because declines in the performance or abundance of some species or phenotypes will be offset, at least partly, by smoother declines or increases in others.

A Lei de Lotka na bibliometria brasileira [PDF]

open access: yesCiência da Informação, 2002
Usando os dados reportados em artigos publicados em revistas brasileiras e trabalhos apresentados em congressos nacionais, replicaram-se as aplicações da Lei de Lotka à literatura brasileira em 10 campos diferentes. Utilizou-se o modelo do poder inverso pelos métodos do mínimo quadrado e probabilidade máxima.

A matter of time: Recovery of plant species diversity in wild plant communities at declining nitrogen deposition

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 7, Page 1180-1193, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim High levels of nitrogen deposition have been responsible for important losses of plant species diversity. It is often assumed that reduction of ammonia and nitrogen oxide emissions will result in the recovery of the former biodiversity. In Western Europe, N deposition peaked between 1980 and 1988 and declined thereafter.

Populations of high‐value predators reflect the traits of their prey

open access: yesEcography, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 690-702, May 2021., 2021
The extent to which prey traits combine to influence the abundance of predators is still poorly understood, particularly for mixed predators in sympatry and in aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we characterise prey use and distribution in iconic bird (grey wagtails and Eurasian dippers) and fish species (brown trout and Atlantic salmon) to assess ...

Self-organized patterns of coexistence out of a predator-prey cellular automaton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present a stochastic approach to modeling the dynamics of coexistence of prey and predator populations. It is assumed that the space of coexistence is explicitly subdivided in a grid of cells.
