Linking interspecific interactions (eg, mutualism, competition, predation, parasitism) to
macroevolution (evolutionary change on deep timescales) is a key goal in biology. The role …

The structure of ecological networks reflects the evolutionary history of their biotic
components, and their dynamics are strongly driven by ecoevolutionary processes. Here, we …

In light of the limited resources of phosphorus (P) fertilizer, investigating the response of
organic P (Po)-mineralizing microbial communities on the resource supply can be an …

Ecosystems with a mix of native and introduced species are increasing globally as extinction
and introduction rates rise, resulting in novel species interactions. While species interactions …

We present a case study report into nutritional competition between Trichoderma spp.
isolated from wild raspberries and fungal phytopathogenic isolates (Colletotrichum sp …

Mutualistic networks are vital ecological and social systems shaped by adaptation and
evolution. They involve bipartite cooperation via the exchange of goods or services between …

In aquatic ecosystems, large amounts of epiphytic bacteria living on the leaf surfaces of
submerged macrophytes play important roles in affecting plant growth and biogeochemical …

The large majority of 'facilitation studies' focus on benefactor–beneficiary interactions.
However, this may skew our view of the role of facilitation toward systems where it is most …

The study of ecological networks has progressively evolved from a mostly descriptive
science to one that attempts to elucidate the processes governing the emerging structure of …

Ecosystems face both local hazards, such as over-exploitation, and global hazards, such as
climate change. Since the impact of local hazards attenuates with distance from humans …
