Coexistence of plant species under harsh environmental conditions: an evaluation of niche differentiation and stochasticity along salt marsh creeks
BackgroundEcologists have achieved much progress in the study of mechanisms that maintain species coexistence and diversity. In this paper, we...

Long-run bacteria-phage coexistence dynamics under natural habitat conditions in an environmental biotechnology system
Bacterial viruses are widespread and abundant across natural and engineered habitats. They influence ecosystem functioning through interactions with...

Coexistence with an invasive species in the context of global warming lead to behavioural changes via both hereditary and ontogenetic adjustments to minimise conflict
Global warming and invasive species often act synergistically to threat native communities. The Neotropical Poeciliidae have extensively been...

Rinmaker: a fast, versatile and reliable tool to determine residue interaction networks in proteins
BackgroundResidue Interaction Networks (RINs) map the crystallographic description of a protein into a graph, where amino acids are represented as...

Effects of the salinity-temperature interaction on seed germination and early seedling development: a comparative study of crop and weed species
BackgroundWeeds represent a great constraint for agricultural production due to their remarkable adaptability and their ability to compete with...

Interaction between quinclorac and imidazolinones in the control of resistant Cyperus iria to ALS inhibitors
Herbicides belonging to the chemical group imidazolinones and the quinclorac herbicide are important to control weeds in flooded rice. The objective...

Differences among species in seed dispersal and conspecific neighbor effects can interact to influence coexistence
Seed dispersal is a critical mechanism for esca** specialist natural enemies. Despite this, mean dispersal distances can vary by an order of...

Plant-Microbe Interaction to Improve Soil Health
The rhizosphere constitutes an ideal example to study the natural interdependence of biological and physical factors. Health of this biologically... -
The effect of non-linear competitive interactions on quantifying niche and fitness differences
The niche and fitness differences of modern coexistence theory separate mechanisms into stabilizing and equalizing components. Although this...

The Challenge of Coexistence: Changes in Activity Budget and Ranging Behaviour of Brown Howler Monkeys in Response to the Presence of Conspecifics and Heterospecifics
The presence of other animals, both conspecifics and heterospecifics, is a major driving force for how animals organize themselves in space and time....

Warming alters the interaction of two invasive beachgrasses with implications for range shifts and coastal dune functions
Forecasting the effects of climate change on the distribution of invasive species can be difficult, because invaders often thrive under novel...
-
Density-dependent behavioural interactions influence coexistence between a native and a non-native mesopredator
The invasion of non-native species into an ecosystem can markedly alter the structure and functioning of the system. Yet, we have limited knowledge...
-
Functional dissimilarity correlates to the co-occurrence patterns of native and non-native species
Many theories have been created to explain the mechanisms driving species coexistence. They are mainly based on biotic interactions and abiotic...

Comprehensive molecular interaction map of TGFβ induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition in breast cancer
Breast cancer is one of the prevailing cancers globally, with a high mortality rate. Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is an advanced stage of cancer,...

Coexistence in multi-use landscape: linking human activities with functional traits of wild mammals in southern India
ContextHuman presence and land-use activities influence habitat use and activity of species. It is crucial to study the ecological and anthropogenic...

Ecological insights into the coexistence of dormancy and desiccation-sensitivity in Arecaceae species
• Key message Mechanisms controlling germination of > 2600 Arecaceae species adapted to the tropical forests are not clearly understood. This...

Interaction network structure explains species’ temporal persistence in empirical plant–pollinator communities
Despite clear evidence that some pollinator populations are declining, our ability to predict pollinator communities prone to collapse or species at...

Small-scale spatial structure affects predator-prey dynamics and coexistence
Small-scale spatial variability can affect community dynamics in many ecological and biological processes, such as predator-prey dynamics and immune...
-
Non-king elimination, intransitive triad interactions, and species coexistence in ecological competition networks
Ecological communities are characterized by the interactions among the species living within a given habitat and can be conveniently represented as...

Experiments determining if habitat mosaics include the refugia from succession theorized to promote species coexistence
Refugia within successional mosaics where localized conditions inhibit successional replacement may support large abundances of early colonizing...
