Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Die skrifbeskouing van feministiese teoloë, in die besonder dié van Fiorenza, Brenner en Van Dijk-Hemmes – beoordeel in die lig van die gereformeerde teologie

open access: yesIn die Skriflig, 2013
Dit wil voorkom asof die feministiese Skrifbeskouing op die beginsel van selektiewe Skrifgesag berus. Dit beteken dat slegs dié dele in die Bybel wat met die feministiese ideologie ooreenstem, as gesaghebbend aanvaar word.

How Do M&A Rumours Influence Deal Completion? The Role of Board Gender Diversity and Language Differences

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study, we apply the upper echelons theory (UET) lens to investigate how M&A rumours influence deal completion. Based on our findings, we propose a two‐stage channel that drives the rumour‐specific effect. In doing so, we provide theoretical arguments and empirical support for the relationship between M&A rumours and deal completions ...
