Abstract:
... Elton’s classic diversity-invasibility hypothesis posits that diversity of resident communities increases resistance against invaders. We tested whether the diversity-invasibility relationsip might be mediated by allelopathic effects of the resident species. In a large germination experiment, we exposed seeds of six alien and six native test species to leachates of one, three, six or twelve specie ...

Abstract:
... As climates change, species with locally adapted populations may be particularly vulnerable as specialization narrows the range of conditions under which populations can persist. Populations adapted to local climate as well as other site‐specific characteristics like soils present challenges for inferring how changing climates affect fitness, as climatic and nonclimatic variables that constitute l ...

Abstract:
... Traits enabling seeds to survive post‐dispersal desiccation and subsequently germinate are important aspects of plant regeneration for species with desiccation‐sensitive seeds. However, how desiccation and germination‐related traits co‐vary and relate to patterns of climate variation are unknown. We investigated physiological traits related to desiccation and germination of desiccation‐sensitive s ...

Abstract:
... A critical factor in the success of fungal growth is spore adhesion to host surfaces. Generating spores capable of rapid and firm bonding to their hosts is not only important for keeping spores from prematurely detaching from the host surface but can also serve as a trigger for spore germination and the development of infection structures. In this paper fungal spore adhesion mechanisms are reviewe ...

Abstract:
... While cheating can cause the degradation or collapse of mutualisms, mutualisms may theoretically stabilize or strengthen if the cheating is mutual. Here, we present an asymmetric two‐player game model to explore the evolutionary dynamics of mutual cheating in a mutualistic interaction. We found that the interaction evolved toward mutual cheating if cheating can help both partners obtain higher ben ...
