Dynamics of infectious disease transmission: a particular expression of predator-prey dynamics Dinamica de transmisión de enfermedades infecciosas: una expresión particular de una dinámica depredador-presa.
(1993)
Infectious diseases in human populations are seldom seen as part of a permanently occurring phenomenon in natural ecosystems. Their relationships to predator-prey or host-parasite systems are not evident. The conceptual ...
Feeding strategy and prey selectivity in Cnesterodon decemmaculatus and Jenynsia multidentata in experimental enclosures: Importance for the biological control of mosquito populations
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019-05)
Mosquitoes pose a threat to human and animal health due they act as vectors for numerous pathogens and parasites which cause disease. Several methods are used to control mosquito populations. Chemical pesticides can be ...
Hunting practices of feral pigs (Sus scrofa) and predation by vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus) as a potential route of rabies in the Brazilian Pantanal
(2021-04-01)
Exotic species are known to cause an impact on native species and the environment through various ecological processes. Their impact on disease dynamics is not completely understood, but their relationship with the local ...
Dinâmica de um sistema presa-predador com predador infectado por uma doença
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBRMatemáticaUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Matemática, 2013-05-10)
The aim of this work is to study the temporal and spatiotemporal evolution of a threedimensional
system that describes a predator-prey dynamics, where the predator population
can develop an infectious disease.
Thus, the ...
Changes in intrapopulation resource use patterns of an endangered raptor in response to a disease-mediated crash in prey abundance
(WILEY-BLACKWELLHOBOKEN, 2012)
1. A long-standing question in ecology is how natural populations respond to a changing environment. Emergent optimal foraging theory-based models for individual variation go beyond the population level and predict how its ...
Voracity, reaction to stings, and survival of domestic hens when feeding on the yellow scorpion (Tityus serrulatus)
(2022-01-01)
Background: Scorpionism is a worldwide problem that has already made thousands of victims, and multi-disciplinary approaches for controlling their populations are to be more successful. Hens are often mentioned as tools ...
