Bacillus thuringiensis and its pest control potential as endophyte
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) systemically colonizes tomato plants as endophyte, inducing midgut damage, fitness reduction and immune suppression in Spodoptera littoralis larvae feeding on Bt‐colonized leaves. The immune suppression enhances the susceptibility to Bt treatments, allowing a synergistic dual use of Bt commercial formulations, by combined ...

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Experimental assessment of large mammal population estimates from airborne thermal videography
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Wildlife resource management requires reliable, fast, and affordable methods of surveying wildlife populations to develop and adaptively adjust policies. Thermal video from drones can yield high rates of detection over large areas with relative speed and safety.

Generalized Error Exponents For Small Sample Universal Hypothesis Testing
, 2014 The small sample universal hypothesis testing problem is investigated in this paper, in which the number of samples $n$ is smaller than the number of possible outcomes $m$.

Functional divergence drives the prevalence of low‐abundance species in bat assemblages
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are structured by a few common species, while most occur at low abundance. Understanding the drivers of this widespread pattern raises fundamental questions about community assembly rules and is important for applied ecology for identifying ...

Computational StatisticsAbstract We introduce a simple and efficient sampling strategy for the Dirichlet process mixture model (DPM) and its two-parameter extension, the Poisson-Dirichlet process mixture model, also known as the Pitman-Yor process mixture model (PYM).

Moderate deviations of minimum contrast estimators under contamination [PDF]
, 2001 Since statistical models are simplifications of reality, it is important in estimation theory to study the behavior of estimators also under distributions (slightly) different from the proposed model.

Wild large herbivores promote plant diversity and functional redundancy by reducing dominance
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Large herbivores can strongly shape plant communities, yet studies report contrasting effects on species richness, and how they affect plant functional diversity remains largely unknown.
