Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Classic theory on geographical gradients in plant-herbivore interactions assumes that herbivore pressure and plant defences increase towards warmer and more stable climates found at lower latitudes. However, the generality of this trend… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Environmental Entomology"

DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvab026

Abstract: Abstract Interseeding cover crops into standing grains can promote both agronomic and environmental benefits within agroecosystems. Producers must decide which cover crops are the best fit for their goals, and whether diverse cover crop mixtures… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Biology Letters"

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2022.0095

Abstract: Invasive species threaten ecosystems globally, but their impacts can be cryptic when they occur indirectly. Invader phenology can also differ from that of native species, potentially causing seasonality in invader impacts. Yet, it is unclear… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Insects"

DOI: 10.3390/insects11100665

Abstract: Simple Summary Bruchid beetles are the pests of many plant species worldwide. One or more grubs can develop inside a seed by consuming it and impairing its germination. Vachellia trees are important for preserving diverse… read more here.
