DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70123
Abstract: Abstract The equilibrium of sex ratios in sexually reproducing species is often disrupted by various environmental and genetic factors, including endosymbionts like Wolbachia. In this study, we explore the highly female‐biased sex ratio observed in… read more here.

Species‐specific plant‐mediated effects between herbivores converge at high damage intensity
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology"
DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3647
Abstract: Abstract Plants are often exposed to multiple herbivores and densities of these attackers (or corresponding damage intensities) often fluctuate greatly in the field. Plant‐mediated interactions vary among herbivore species and with changing feeding intensity, but… read more here.
