Influence of the use of complete denture adhesives on microbial adhesion and biofilm formation by single- and mixed-species. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
OBJECTIVES:To verify whether the Ultra Corega Cream and Corega Strip Denture Adhesive adhesives interfere in the microbial adhesion and biofilm formation by Candida albicans and Lactobacillus casei in single- and mixed-species settings, and observe ...

Seasonal drivers of mixed-species flocks from tropical savannas: insights from the Pantanal wetland

Journal of Field Ornithology, 2023
Birds participate in different types of multi-species groups (e.g., mixed-species flocks) occurring from temperate to tropical forest and also savannas.

Morph Composition Matters in the Gouldian Finch (Chloebia gouldiae): Involvement of Red-Headed Birds Increases Vigilance

Birds, 2021
Animals invest in costly vigilance to detect threats. Joining groups reduces these costs, which can be further reduced in mixed-species assemblages. In colour-polymorphic species, morphs often experience different predation pressure and vary in a variety

Foraging behaviour of an omnivorous bird varies in mixed-species groups

Ethology Ecology & Evolution, 2022
In mixed-species groups (MSGs), individuals from different species may locate and communicate about the presence of predators and prey quickly and accurately but may compete for food and favourable positions in the flock. Thus, foraging behaviour is likely to change when individuals participate in MSGs compared with single-species groups (SSGs).

Exploring mixed-species grouping effects through antipredator mechanisms

, 2022
Predation is an important selective force for prey organisms, which have also developed different antipredator adaptions. Individuals of many animal species live in the group, which is generally believed to offer prey benefits from reduced predation risk and/or increased foraging efficiency.

Integration of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Imagery and Machine Learning Technology to Map the Distribution of Conifer and Broadleaf Canopy Cover in Uneven-Aged Mixed Forests

Drones, 2023
Uneven-aged mixed forests have been recognized as important contributors to biodiversity conservation, ecological stability, carbon sequestration, the provisioning of ecosystem services, and sustainable timber production.

Using Social Network Analysis to Assess ‘Groupness’ in a Mixed-Species Zoo Exhibit of Tufted Capuchins (Sapajus apella) and Squirrel Monkeys (Saimiri sciureus)

Animals
Mixed-species groups have been recorded in various primates, including tufted capuchin and squirrel monkeys. Measures of their ‘groupness’ are typically based on factors such as group stability, social interactions, proximity, or behavioural coordination.

Predator Eavesdropping in a Mixed-Species Environment: How Prey Species May Use Grouping, Confusion, and the Cocktail Party Effect to Reduce Predator Detection

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
The field of predator eavesdropping concentrates on the detection by a predator or parasite of signals that prey direct at conspecifics, and the subsequent evolution by prey to avoid or lessen such detection.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
