Optimal Control Analysis of Vertically Transmitted Infectious Diseases With Saturated Incidence and Nonlinear Treatment

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the proposed disease transmission model incorporating vertical transmission, saturated incidence, and nonlinear treatment. The study combines theoretical analysis, bifurcation and stability investigations, and optimal control techniques to evaluate prevention and treatment interventions.

Both density‐ and frequency‐dependent effects determine plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
We tested the hypothesis that both density‐ and frequency‐dependent interactions play important roles in determining plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem at several levels of available nitrogen. Plant growth was measured using the pin‐point method in a five‐block experiment with four nitrogen levels.

Suppression of soil microbiota rather than neighbours facilitates absinthe Artemisia absinthium invasion in native grasslands

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Many mechanisms can lead to successful plant invasion, but their importance is often context dependent. One such mechanism is allelopathy: chemical inhibition of neighbouring plants. The importance of allelopathy may be mediated by soil microbiota and environmental conditions, and depend upon the species or functional group affected.

Species diversity of natural enemy association on rice at two different locations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The experiments were conducted to compare the species diversity and abundance of natural enemies on rice by using light trap, pitfall traps, yellow pan traps and yellow sticky traps at Nyaungbingyisu (Nay Pyi Taw Council Area) and Hmawbi from February to

The disruption of seed dispersal networks: disentangling the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal by frugivores is a central process linking plant reproduction, animal foraging, population persistence, and ecosystem resilience. Currently, the spatial template sustaining these interactions is rapidly reconfigured by habitat loss and fragmentation promoted by human activity.

A Moveable Feast: Insects Moving at the Forest-Crop Interface Are Affected by Crop Phenology and the Amount of Forest in the Landscape.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Edges have become prevailing habitats, mainly as a result of habitat fragmentation and agricultural expansion. The interchange of functionally relevant organisms like insects occurs through these edges and can influence ecosystem functioning in both crop
