Ecological intensification seeks to achieve crop yield increases by intensifying complementary or facilitative interactions between plant species or v...

Ecological theories suggest that higher plant genetic diversity can increase productivity in natural ecosystems. So far, varietal mixtures, that is, t...

Life tables and intrinsic rates of increase were obtained for Myzus persicae (Sulz.), Brachycaudus helichrysi (Kalt.) and Macrosiphoniella sanborni (G...

Habitat degradation and fragmentation are growing concerns in ecology, yet distinguishing between the effects of these processes can be a challenging ...

Understanding the nature and characteristics of contact heterogeneities is crucial for predicting the epidemic behaviour of infectious diseases. Nonet...

Diversifying agricultural systems by growing more than one crop species in an area can decrease pest and disease pressure and increase crop yields. Ho...

Traditional small-holder agricultural landscapes in southern China are being consolidated to increase mechanisation levels in agriculture, but it is u...

Understanding patterns of species abundance is essential for planning landscape-level conservation. The complex hierarchies of dendritic ecosystems re...

The current human-induced intensification of grazing pressure and the aridity increase as a result of climate change are unprecedented and have been i...

Intensifying agricultural production in sustainable ways is pivotal to increasing food production while reducing environmental impacts. Ecological int...
