DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2693
Abstract: Plants cannot simply flee from an unbidden guest. To survive the attacks from their many natural enemies, plants have instead evolved some strategies of defense, some of which are highly complex. One such strategy works… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10886-017-0908-y
Abstract: Within a species, individual animals adopt various defensive strategies to resist natural enemies, but the defensive strategies that are adopted in response to variations in predation risk are poorly understood. Here, we assessed consecutive foraging… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/g16060059
Abstract: Linear programming and polyhedral representation conversion methods have been widely applied to game theory to compute equilibria. Here, we introduce new applications of these methods to two game-theoretic scenarios in which players aim to secure… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/toxins16020094
Abstract: Cone snails are carnivorous marine animals that prey on fish (piscivorous), worms (vermivorous), or other mollusks (molluscivorous). They produce a complex venom mostly made of disulfide-rich conotoxins and conopeptides in a compartmentalized venom gland. The… read more here.
