DOI: 10.1111/afe.12346
Abstract: Carabid beetles may play a role in the regulation of arable weeds, when seed predation is directly density‐dependent and consumption increases more than proportionally with seed density. We quantified the effect of seed and carabid… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.7650
Abstract: The long-term use of herbicides to remove weeds in fallow croplands can impair soil biodiversity, affect the quality of agricultural products, and threaten human health. Consequently, the identification of methods that can effectively limit the… read more here.
