Is top-down control by predators driving insect abundance and herbivory rates in fragmented forests?
(2012)
The effects of forest fragmentation on ecological interactions and particularly on food webs have scarcely been analysed. There is usually less herbivory in forest fragments than in continuous forests. Here we hypothesize ...
Predicting evolution of insect resistance to transgenic crops in within-field refuge configurations, based on larval movement
(2016-12-01)
The selection pressure imposed by the widespread use of transgenic technologies can lead to the evolution of insect resistance, and the availability of refuge areas that allow susceptible homozygous insects to survive is ...
