Isotopic evidence for the consumption of Galliformes by the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in rural southern England

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic resource subsidies can drive mesopredator population growth, altering predator–prey dynamics. The red fox Vulpes vulpes is a generalist canid that can readily exploit such subsidies. In the UK, tens of millions of pheasants Phasianus colchicus and red‐legged partridges Alectoris rufa are released annually for sport shooting, potentially ...

Multielemental Analysis in Rice Grains by Total Reflection X‐Ray Fluorescence

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice (Oryza sativa) is a staple food cultivated worldwide and represents a significant source of essential nutrients for humans. However, this cereal may also contain potentially toxic elements including chromium, arsenic, and lead typically present at trace concentrations (ng.g−1).

Ecosystem openness to nitrogen and phosphorus controlled by fertilisation, mowing and plant diversity in a grassland

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem openness to nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is determined by the balance of N and P inputs (e.g. fertiliser) and outputs (biomass removal). Plant biodiversity enhances nutrient use efficiency due to species' complementary uptake driven by their variation in ...

Reduced fertilization regimes could boost biocontrol service without reducing crop yield

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Fertilization level influences pest control effectiveness in tomato crops. High fertilization increases plant growth and aphid density but reduces the performance of the parasitoid Aphidius ervi. In contrast, the predator Adalia bipunctata maintains consistent aphid suppression regardless of fertilization regime.

Differences in Habitat Quality Drive Behavioral Contrasts in Two Family Groups of the Critically Endangered Hainan Gibbon (Nomascus hainanus)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Habitat quality variation drove distinct behavioral strategies: GC (resource‐rich group) behaviors were influenced by food availability, safety and stability, while GE (resource‐scarce group) behaviors relied more on topography, food, and nutrients. Seasonal behavioral flexibility was demonstrated, with food variables dominating in the dry season and ...
