Multitrophic Level Interactions
2002The multitrophic level approach to ecology addresses the complexity of food webs much more realistically than the traditional focus on simple systems and interactions. Only in the last few decades have ecologists become interested in the nature of more complex systems including tritrophic interactions between plants, herbivores and natural enemies ...

Nutrient enrichment and plant diversity loss: belowground multitrophic interactions [PDF]
Trends in Plant ScienceHuman-induced nutrient enrichment impacts negatively on plant diversity in terrestrial ecosystems. The decline in plant diversity under nutrient enrichment primarily results from species-specific responses and their interactions, which subsequently drive their survival or loss within the community.

Multitrophic interactions and management of the diamondback moth: a review
Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1996AbstractThe diamondback moth,Plutella xylostellaLinnaeus (Yponomeutidae), remains one of the most serious pests of crucifers in many parts of the world, particularly in South East Asia. This paper reviews the wide array of strategies which have been used in attempts to controlP.

Ecological impacts of treated effluent on multitrophic biodiversity and their interactions
Environmental ResearchThe reuse of water, particularly treated effluent from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), is a crucial and sustainable strategy for mitigating water scarcity, especially in megacities with high water demand and limited resources. However, the ecological risks associated with effluent discharge into receiving waterbodies have gained significant global

Chemically mediated multitrophic interactions and their role in crop protection
Current Opinion in Insect ScienceAgricultural production is primarily constrained by biotic stresses, with insect pests being the most significant contributors. Effective pest management is essential for sustainable crop protection and relies on understanding how plants interact with pests (herbivores), their natural enemies (predators and parasitoids), other plants, and beneficial ...

Multitrophic interactions in a potato-aphid system
2010In interactions between plants, insect herbivores and natural enemies, resistant plant varieties and soil abiotic/biotic factors can affect natural enemies through changes in the plant or host insect. Interactions can be negative, neutral or positive in relation to herbivore populations.

Fungal endosymbionts of grasses, and their effects on multitrophic interactions
2007The general topic of my thesis concerns the world of invisible microorganisms or, more specifically, that of endophytic fungi. Endophytic fungi live asymptomatically within the tissues of many plant species. In association with cool-season grasses, these fungi produce herbivore toxic alkaloids.
