Antipredator behaviours of a spider mite in response to cues of dangerous and harmless predators

open access: yesExperimental & applied acarology, 2016
Prey are known to invest in costly antipredator behaviour when perceiving cues of dangerous, but not of relatively harmless predators. Whereas most studies investigate one type of antipredator behaviour, we studied several types (changes in oviposition ...

The use of plant, bacterial and fungal resources in soil food webs of ecto‐ and arbuscular mycorrhiza‐dominated deciduous forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil food webs, driven by complex interactions among plants, microbes and invertebrates, are crucial for carbon and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Over the last decade, it has become evident that forests dominated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) or ...

Drones: Innovative Technology for Use in Precision Pest Management. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Arthropod pest outbreaks are unpredictable and not uniformly distributed within fields. Early outbreak detection and treatment application are inherent to effective pest management, allowing management decisions to be implemented before pests are well ...

Wild ungulates and salvage logging modulate disturbance effects on moth communities in spruce‐dominated forests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
In an area of massive forest disturbance, taxonomic and functional moth diversity currently benefit from a re‐opening of dense, dark forests. At a landscape scale, management should aim at diverse management strategies creating vegetation heterogeneity, that is, combining unlogged and salvage‐logged sites.

High-resolution QTL mapping in Tetranychus urticae reveals acaricide-specific responses and common target-site resistance after selection by different METI-I acaricides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Arthropod herbivores cause dramatic crop losses, and frequent pesticide use has led to widespread resistance in numerous species. One such species, the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, is an extreme generalist herbivore and a major worldwide

International Biological Flora: Tsuga canadensis*

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Eastern Hemlock is a long‐lived forest tree of eastern North America known for its deep shade and home given to many organisms. Despite surviving large‐scale clearing for agriculture when Europeans arrived, it returned to dominate when the land was abandoned in the mid 1800s.
