DOI: 10.1002/ece3.71379

Abstract: ABSTRACT Mite–plant defense mutualisms are among the most common defense mutualisms in the world—yet studies providing basic information on their prevalence in plant communities remain rare. Here, we systematically surveyed common woody plants in a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-77995-y

Abstract: Ant-plants produce hollow structures called domatia to host protecting ants. Although size variation in domatia is well documented between related species, intraspecific variation is little explored. The central African ant-plant Barteria dewevrei exibits strong variation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2309475121

Abstract: Mutualisms are mediated by adaptive traits of interacting organisms and play a central role in the ecology and evolution of species. Thousands of plant species possess tiny structures called “domatia” that house mites which protect… read more here.
