Floral species evenness is the major driver of wild bee communities in urban gardens
Urban gardens have the potential to contribute to urban bee biodiversity. However, studies considering the effects of habitat amount and floral...

Biodegradation of mixed litter-derived dissolved organic matter with varying evenness in a temperate freshwater wetland
Litter-derived dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an essential role in biogeochemical cycles. In wetlands, species relative abundance and its...

Metabolomic Evenness Underlies Intraspecific Differences Among Lineages of a Wetland Grass
The metabolome represents an important functional trait likely important to plant invasion success, but we have a limited understanding of whether...

Dominant species and evenness level co-regulate litter mixture decomposition in a boreal peatland
BackgroundIn boreal peatlands, climate warming and associated soil drying facilitate the growth of vascular plants at the cost of moss species,...

Determining the role of richness and evenness in alpine grassland productivity across climatic and edaphic gradients
Spatial heterogeneity of climatic and edaphic gradients can substantially affect the grassland productivity function. However, few studies have...

Richness, not evenness, varies across water availability gradients in grassy biomes on five continents
We sought to understand the role that water availability (expressed as an aridity index) plays in determining regional and global patterns of...

Intraspecific Competition Results in Reduced Evenness of Tuber melanosporum Mating-Type Abundance from the Nursery Stage
The highly prized black truffle is a fungus mostly harvested in orchards planted with mycorrhizal seedlings. It is an obligatory outcrossing fungus...

Evaluating the macro and micro geographic mechanisms that modulate the coexistence between sympatric Sturnira bat species
One of the key questions in ecology is to understand the mechanisms that modulate the coexistence between sympatric species. Climate and habitat...

Functional evenness and community-weighted mean traits have strong correlation with macrophyte community productivity
Biodiversity is declining globally at a rapid rate nowadays as a result of a variety of global changes, and estimating how biodiversity loss affects...

Enhanced carbon, nitrogen and associated bacterial community compositional complexity, stability, evenness, and differences within the tree-soils of Inga punctata along an age gradient of planted trees in reforestation plots
AimsThis study was designed to determine if planting the leguminous tree Inga punctata in previously cleared former tropical premontane wet forests...

Perennial plant species composition and diversity in relation to socioecological variables and agroforestry practices in central Ethiopia
Tropical deforestation and forest degradation have resulted in substantial losses of goods and services and a decline in the quality of life....

Diversity and Species Abundance of Spiders of Great Nicobar Biosphere Reserve
Spiders are extremely abundant throughout the country, but our knowledge of the Indian spiders is very fragmentary. Nonetheless only a few studies... -
Seasonal dominance of exotic ambrosia beetles compared to native species within deciduous and coniferous woodlots
Ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) are among the most successful invaders of trees on a global scale. Exotic species can...

Northwestern transboundary area of Bangladesh: a key to sustaining a quarter of the country’s avian species
In the face of global forest ecosystem decline, non-protected transboundary areas like agroforestry can play a crucial role for conserving avian...

Relationship between species diversity and tree size in natural forests around the Tropic of Cancer
Although numerous hypotheses have been proposed to explain the patterns of species diversity of forests at local and landscape levels, it is still...
