Trophic cascades are powerful indirect interactions that can control entire ecosystems. Trophic cascades occur when predators limit the density and/or behavior of their prey and thereby enhance ...

This study focused on exploring the distribution patterns, driving factors and microbial interaction patterns of methane-metabolizing microorganisms along the sedimentation gradient in the Yellow ...

As one of the most rapidly accumulating sedimentary regions globally, the Yellow River Delta is characterized by the rapid deposition of sediment near ...

The authors' demonstration that impaired olfactory perception reduces caterpillar performance and increases susceptibility to parasitism is solid. These findings highlight the ecological significance ...

Ecosystems face a combination of stressors that can interact in complex ways, leading to either synergistic (amplifying) or ...

Now we were interested in an endophytic fungus whose role in poplar-insect interactions is still largely unexplored," says first author Christin Walther, explaining the starting point of the study.

The research, conducted by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and Fundación MEDINA, focused on the utilisation of vermicomposted olive mill waste as a soil amendment and its consequence on ...
