Factors affecting the biological control of the spiralling whitefly Aleurodicus dispersus (Hemiptera:Aleyrodidae) in banana plantations in Costa Rica: a study case
(2018)
A study was conducted to reveal the causes for Aleurodicus dispersus outbreak in commercial banana plantations in Costa Rica. Biotic and abiotic factor affecting affecting the abundance of the spiralling whitefly were ...
Biotic interaction between spionid polychaetes and bouchardiid brachiopods: Paleoecological, taphonomic and evolutionary implications
(2008-12-01)
Shells of Bouchardia rosea (Brachiopoda, Rhynchonelliformea) are abundant in Late Holocene death assemblages of the Ubatuba Bight, Brazil, SW Atlantic. This genus is also known from multiple localities in the Cenozoic ...

Rodent seed predation as a biotic filter influencing exotic plant abundance and distribution
(Springer, 2014-05)
Biotic resistance is commonly invoked to explain why many exotic plants fail to thrive in introduced ranges, but the role of seed predation as an invasion filter is understudied. Abiotic conditions may also influence plant ...
Testing the role of biotic stress in the stress gradient hypothesis. Processes and patterns in arid rangelands
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2011-06)
Since many arid ecosystems are overstocked with domestic herbivores, biotic stress could have a stronger influence in modulating the balance of species interactions than expected from the stress gradient hypothesis (SGH). ...
Mutualism influences species distribution predictions for a bromeliad-breeding anuran under climate change
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-11-01)
Ecological niche models, or species distribution models, have been widely used to identify potentially suitable areas for species in future climate change scenarios. However, there are inherent errors to these models due ...
Influence of agricultural practices on biotic production potential and climate regulation potential: a case study for life cycle assessment of soybean (Glycine max) in Argentina
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2015-04)
The aim of this study is to determine the impact potential of land use on biotic production and climate regulation in the agricultural phase of a product, taking into account the varied soil and crop management. Land ...
Plant interactions with other organisms: molecules, ecology and evolution
(Wiley, 2014-09-18)
The plant sciences, during much of the 20th century, evolved as a group of disciplines that sought to explain plant responses to factors of the abiotic environment, such as water, mineral nutrients and light. In the last ...
Influence of biotic and abiotic factors on the structure of burrows of the cavy Microcavia australisInfluencia de los factores bióticos y abióticos sobre la estructura de las cuiseras de Microcavia australis.
(Sociedad Argentina para el Estudio de los Mamíferos, 2009-08)
Las cuiseras proveen de un microclima estable y dan protección a pequeños mamíferos de temperaturas extremas del ambiente y de depredadores. El objetivo fue determinar la influencia de los factores bióticos y abióticos ...
