DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7448
Abstract: Abstract Character displacement that leads to divergent phenotypes between sympatric species has been hypothesized to facilitate coexistence and promote the accumulation of biodiversity. However, there are alternative evolutionary mechanisms that may also lead to the… read more here.

Seasonal competition between sympatric species for a key resource: Implications for conservation management
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Biological Conservation"
DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2019.03.013
Abstract: Abstract Competition often occurs between two or more sympatric species that use similar ecological niches. During competition, a superior species may exclude the competitor from parts of its fundamental niche or make it go extinct.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2020.e01221
Abstract: Understanding the relationships between giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) and their sympatric species is an important component in their conservation. In this study we evaluate the impact of sympatric species with three ranges of body size… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyy139
Abstract: Terrestrial echimyid rodents typically use subterranean cavities and hollow logs as refuges. We examined habitat characteristics at refuges used by 2 such species of rodents, Proechimys semispinosus and Hoplomys gymnurus, to better understand coexistence of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.13099
Abstract: Premating behaviors mediated by pheromones play pivotal roles in animal mating choices. In natural populations of the striped stem borer Chilo suppressalis and the rice leaf roller Cnaphalocrocis medinalis in the rice field habitat, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.13345
Abstract: Flagship species have been used widely as umbrella species (i.e., species with large home range whose protection often provides protection for sympatric species) in the management of China's nature reserves. This conflation of flagship and… read more here.

Comparative transcriptomics of sympatric species of coral reef fishes (genus: Haemulon)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.6541
Abstract: Background Coral reefs are major hotspots of diversity for marine fishes, yet there is still ongoing debate on the mechanisms that promote divergence in these rich ecosystems. Our understanding of how diversity originates in this… read more here.
