Pesticide resistance development is an example of rapid contemporary evolution that poses
immense challenges for agriculture. It typically evolves due to the strong directional …

Forbs are a culturally and ecologically important yet poorly studied component of the Pacific
Northwest Bunchgrass (PNB) ecosystem of western North America. Because many PNB …

Introduction Grasslands are home to complex bacterial communities whose dynamic
interactions play a crucial role in organic matter and nutrient cycling. However, there is …

We aimed to analyse the effects of Cryptostegia madagascariensis' invasion on soil biota
community composition from a tropical Fluvisol at the Brazilian Northeast. We collected soil …

Migratory shorebirds are one of the fastest declining groups of North American avifauna. Yet,
relatively little is known about how these species select habitat during migration. We …

Temperate grasslands are one of the most altered ecosystems on Earth. Consequently,
conservation of important characteristics of such ecosystems (eg, biodiversity) is uncertain …

Woody plants are proliferating in grassland ecosystems worldwide, altering distributions and
demography of many imperiled species. The transition from grassland to shrubland is …

Invasive alien trees transform landscapes and subsequent ecosystem function. For
grassland ecosystems, fragmentation following invasion by alien woody species is of …

We studied the effects of vegetation species richness, diversity, and structure on grassland
arthropod communities of 23 sites in northeastern South Dakota and southeastern North …

Invasive plants can impact ecosystem services, such as by reducing availability of nutritional
resources for detritivorous arthropods that are valued for juvenile fish production. We …
