Assessing the effects of native plants on the pollination of an exotic herb, the blueweed Echium vulgare (Boraginaceae)
(2013)
The impacts of exotic plants on the pollination and reproductive success of natives have been widely reported; however, in spite of its importance for the invasive process, the role of native plants in the pollination and ...

Native plants in experimental urban green roofs sustain more diverse communities of hemiptera than exotics
(Entomology Society of America, 2020)
Green roofs could promote insect biodiversity conservation in cities, but the effects of roof vegetation origin on insect communities are still poorly understood. We experimentally evaluated the effect of native and exotic ...
Differences in effects of pyrrolizidine alkaloids on five generalist insect herbivore species
(2005)
The evolution of the diversity in plant secondary compounds is often thought to be driven by insect herbivores, although there is little empirical evidence for this assumption. To investigate whether generalist insect ...

Behavioural complementarity among frugivorous birds and lizards can promote plant diversity in island ecosystems
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-01)
The behavioural complementarity of fruit-eating animals is thought to exert a key role in plant community assembly. However, a mechanistic understanding of the causal links between the two processes is still lacking. This ...
Genetic Structure and Molecular Variability Analysis of Citrus sudden death-associated virus Isolates from Infected Plants Grown in Brazil
(Mdpi Ag, 2016-12-01)
Citrus sudden death-associated virus (CSDaV) is a monopartite positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus that was suggested to be associated with citrus sudden death (CSD) disease in Brazil. Here, we report the first study ...
Fine-scale Beta-diversity Patterns Across Multiple Arthropod Taxa Over a Neotropical Latitudinal Gradient
(2015-09-01)
Documenting how diversity patterns vary at fine- and broad scales may help answer many questions in theoretical and applied ecology. However, studies tend to compare diversity patterns at the same scale and within the same ...
