Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.We show that complexity, but not nestedness or modularity, increase dynamical stability of mutualistic networks, mainly through a weakening in mutualistic dependencies with complexity. Abstract Mutualistic networks provide essential contributions to long‐term ecosystem functioning and food security, but Anthropocene stressors continue to alter their ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
