Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.We show that nutrient excretion by vertebrates and invertebrates varies nonlinearly with dissolved organic matter concentration and composition and by taxonomic rank, with stronger patterns at the individual compared to the community level. Our findings highlight the importance of examining animal‐mediated nutrient cycling across taxa and ecological ...

PLOS ONE, 2017 Riptortus pedestris (Fabricius) et Halyomorpha halys (Stål) causent des blessures au soja en perçant et en suçant les gousses et les graines. Les producteurs estiment que les nouveaux dégâts diminuent à proximité de la récolte malgré l'apparition de ces insectes à ce moment-là. Comme cette question n'a jamais été évaluée, nous avons évalué deux régimes

Animal‐Mediated Dispersal and Clonal Growth Drive Prunus cerasus Invasion in Andean Temperate Forest
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Prunus cerasus reproduces by clonality and by seed dispersal and germination. P. cerasus is invading Patagonian protected areas. The relative relevance of germination and clonal reproduction changes along the time of P. cerasus arrival at a site. Seed dispersal by foxes is primarily responsible for the spread of P. cerasus to new areas.
