Modeling the herd prey response to individualistic predators attacks

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 46, Issue 12, Page 13436-13456, August 2023., 2023
In this paper, we consider predators hunting on prey gathered in groups and in such way exhibiting the possibility of reducing the predators pressure. To model this feature, however, we depart from the Holling type II (HTII) response function, in that we assume that a sufficiently large set of prey could respond to individualistic attacks and therefore

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

Journal 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

Ecology 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

Oikos, 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

Biological 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.
