Trait-based modelling in ecology: a review of two decades of research
L Zakharova, KM Meyer, M Seifan - Ecological Modelling, 2019 - Elsevier
Trait-based approaches are an alternative to species-based approaches for functionally
linking individual organisms with community structure and dynamics. In the trait-based …

Symbiosis and host responses to heating
Virtually all organisms are colonized by microbes. Average temperatures are rising because
of global climate change–accompanied by increases in extreme climatic events and heat …

Ecological conditions predict the intensity of Hendra virus excretion over space and time from bat reservoir hosts
The ecological conditions experienced by wildlife reservoirs affect infection dynamics and
thus the distribution of pathogen excreted into the environment. This spatial and temporal …

Alternate patterns of temperature variation bring about very different disease outcomes at different mean temperatures
The dynamics of host-parasite interactions are highly temperature-dependent and may be
modified by increasing frequency and intensity of climate-driven heat events. Here, we show …

Effects of heavy metals and hyporheic exchange on microbial community structure and functions in hyporheic zone
The responses of microbial communities in hyporheic zone to the eco-hydrological process
have been a hotspot in river ecological health research. However, the impact of different …

Mechanistic models to meet the challenge of climate change in plant–pathogen systems
Evidence that climate change will impact the ecology and evolution of individual plant
species is growing. However, little, as yet, is known about how climate change will affect …

Groundwater microbial communities in times of climate change
A Retter, C Karwautz, C Griebler - Current issues in molecular biology, 2021 - mdpi.com
Climate change has a massive impact on the global water cycle. Subsurface ecosystems,
the earth largest reservoir of liquid freshwater, currently experience a significant increase in …

Within-host priority effects systematically alter pathogen coexistence
PA Clay, K Dhir, VHW Rudolf… - The American …, 2019 - journals.uchicago.edu
Coinfection of host populations alters pathogen prevalence, host mortality, and pathogen
evolution. Because pathogens compete for limiting resources, whether multiple pathogens …

Thermal limits in the face of infectious disease: How important are pathogens?
The frequency and severity of both extreme thermal events and disease outbreaks are
predicted to continue to shift as a consequence of global change. As a result, species …

Temperature modifies trait-mediated infection outcomes in a Daphnia–fungal parasite system
One major concern related to climate change is that elevated temperatures will drive
increases in parasite outbreaks. Increasing temperature is known to alter host traits and host …
