Niche partitioning among dead wood-dependent beetles [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Niche partitioning among species with virtually the same requirements is a fundamental concept in ecology. Nevertheless, some authors suggest that niches have little involvement in structuring communities.

Foraging niche partitioning in sympatric seabird populations [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Sympatric species must sufficiently differentiate aspects of their ecological niche to alleviate complete interspecific competition and stably coexist within the same area. Seabirds provide a unique opportunity to understand patterns of niche segregation

Trophic niche partitioning in giant clams
Communications BiologyEcosystems are influenced by competition for limited resources, a driver of niche partitioning. Over time, the emergence of novel traits facilitating new resource exploitation can reduce competition.

Ecological niche divergence or ecological niche partitioning in a widespread Neotropical bird lineage [PDF]
PeerJEcological niche divergence is generally considered to be a facet of evolution that may accompany geographic isolation and diversification in allopatry, contributing to species’ evolutionary distinctiveness through time.

Reproductive Interference and Niche Partitioning in Aphidophagous Insects
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2016 The range and quality of prey species differ greatly among closely related species of predators. However, the factors responsible for this diversified niche utilization are unclear.

Intraguild niche partitioning in granivorous birds from the late past
Avian Research, 2023 Niche partitioning is a widespread ecological strategy within trophic guilds, ensuring the coexistence of sympatric species by reducing interspecific competition.

Royal Society Open Science, 2023 A species may partition its realized ecological niche along bionomic and scenopoetic axes due to intraspecific competition for limited resources. How partitioning manifests depends on resource needs and availability by and for the partitioning groups ...

Niche partitioning in a guild of invasive mammalian predators
Ecological Applications, 2022 AbstractPredators compete aggressively for resources, establishing trophic hierarchies that influence ecosystem structure. Competitive interactions are particularly important in invaded ecosystems where introduced predators can suppress native prey species. We investigated whether niche partitioning exists within a guild of invasive mammalian predators

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Ecological theory suggests that the coexistence of species is promoted by the partitioning of available resources, as in dietary niche partitioning where predators partition prey.
