Effects of Sphagnum Leachate on Competitive Sphagnum Microbiome Depend on Species and Time

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Constant Signarbieux, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Samuel Thomas Gabriel Hamard

Plant specialized metabolites play an important role in soil carbon (C) and nutrient fluxes. Through anti-microbial effects, they can modulate microbial assemblages and associated microbial-driven processes, such as nutrient cycling, so to positively or ne ...

Catchment land cover influences macroinvertebrate food-web structure and energy flow pathways in mountain streams

Tom Ian Battin, Christopher Robinson

Understanding how different food resources sustain stream food webs is fundamental towards increasing our knowledge on trophic structure and energy flow pathways in fluvial ecosystems. 2. Food webs in small mountain streams are sustained by autochthonou ...

Vibrio cholerae filamentation promotes chitin surface attachment at the expense of competition in biofilms

Alexandre Louis André Persat

Collective behavior in spatially structured groups, or biofilms, is the norm among microbes in their natural environments. Though biofilm formation has been studied for decades, tracing the mechanistic and ecological links between individual cell morpholog ...

A generalized definition of reactivity for ecological systems and the problem of transient species dynamics

Andrea Rinaldo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

Perturbations to an ecosystem's steady state can trigger transient responses of great ecological relevance. Asymptotic stability determines whether a generic perturbation will fade out in the long run, but falls short of characterizing the dynamics imme ...

Stability analysis of ecomorphodynamic equations

Paolo Perona, Benoît Crouzy

In order to shed light on the influence of riverbed vegetation on river morphodynamics, we perform a linear stability analysis on a minimal model of vegetation dynamics coupled with classical one- and two-dimensional Saint-Venant-Exner equations of morphod ...

The interaction of commensal intestinal bacteria with helminth parasites

Nicola Harris, Mario Michael Zaiss

Throughout evolution, both helminths and bacteria have inhabited our intestines. As intestinal helminths and bacteria inhabit the same environmental niche, it is likely that these organisms interact with, and impact on, each other. In addition, intestinal ...

Dispersal strategies, few dominating or many coexisting: the effect of environmental spatial structure and multiple sources of mortality

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Interspecific competition, life history traits, environmental heterogeneity and spatial structure as well as disturbance are known to impact the successful dispersal strategies in metacommunities. However, studies on the direction of impact of those factor ...

Complex interactions between spatial pattern of resident species and invasiveness of newly arriving species affect invasibility

Alexandre Buttler, Aurélie Thébault

Understanding the factors that affect establishment success of new species in established communities requires the study of both the ability of new species to establish and community resistance. Spatial pattern of species within a community can affect plan ...
