Phylogenies and traits provide distinct insights about the historical and contemporary assembly of aquatic insect communities
(2016-05-01)
The assumption that traits and phylogenies can be used as proxies of species niche has faced criticisms. Evidence suggested that phylogenic relatedness is a weak proxy of trait similarity. Moreover, different processes can ...
Exploring community assembly through an individual-based model for trophic interactions
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-01-10)
Traditionally, the dynamics of community assembly has been analyzed by means of deterministic models of differential equations. Despite the theoretical advances provided by such models, they are restricted to questions ...

Detecting cell assemblies in large neuronal populations
(Elsevier, 2013-07)
Recent progress in the technology for single unit recordings has given the neuroscientific community theopportunity to record the spiking activity of large neuronal populations. At the same pace, statistical andmathematical ...
Filtering processes in the assembly of plant communities: Are species presence and abundance driven by the same traits?
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2007-12)
Question: Is the response of plant traits to environment at the community level similar when considering species abundance and when considering species presence only? Location: Mountain grasslands, central Argentina. ...
Ecological versatility and the assembly of multiple competitors: cautionary notes for assembly inferences
(2018-05-01)
The role of niche differences and competition is invoked when one finds coexisting species to be more dissimilar in trait composition than expected at random in community assembly studies. This approach has been questioned ...

The community-level effect of light on germination timing in relation to seed mass: a source of regeneration niche differentiation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-11-01)
Within a community, species may germinate at different times so as to mitigate competition and to take advantage of different aspects of the seasonal environment (temporal niche differentiation). We illustrated a hypothesis ...
