The geography of snake reproductive mode: a global analysis of the evolution of snake viviparity. Global Ecology and Biogeography.

Torres Carvajal, Lenin Omar (2015)

Aim: Although most reptiles are oviparous, viviparity is a common mode of reproduction in squamates and has evolved multiple times in different lineages. We test two prevailing hypotheses regarding the biogeography of ...
Temperature-dependent shift in herbivore performance and interactions drive non-linear changes in crop damages.

Dangles, Olivier Jacques (2013)

Understanding how and to what extent the influence of temperature on physiological performance scales up to interspecific interactions and process rate patterns remains a major scientific challenge faced by ecologists. ...
Using nutritional ecology to predict community structure: a field test in Neotropical ants.

Donoso, David (2012)

Nutritional ecology predicts consumer behavior based on the biochemistry of species and biogeochemistry of the environment. It is thus well suited as a tool for predicting the effects of specific nutrients on consumer ...
