Accounting for relatedness and spatial structure to improve plant phenotypic selection in the wild Fontúrbel, Francisco E.; Ferrer, Pedro F.; Vega Retter, Caren; Medel Contreras, Rodrigo (Springer, 2020)Identifying natural selection in wild plant populations is a challenging task, as the reliability of selection coefficients depends, among other factors, on the critical assumption of data independence. While rarely examined, ...

Salazar, Daniela A.; Fonturbel, Francisco E. (2016)Habitat structure determines species occurrence and behavior. However, human activities are altering natural habitat structure, potentially hampering native species due to the loss of nesting cavities, shelter or movement ...

Fonturbel, Francisco E.; Cordero Osorio, Felipe Andrés; Riffo Donoso, Valentina; Carvallo, Gastón O.; Rydin, Hakan (Wiley, 2020)1. Ecological interactions are the glue of biodiversity, structuring communities and determining their functionality. However, our knowledge about ecological interactions is usually biased against cryptic interactions ...

Fonturbel, Francisco E.; Murua, Maureen M.; Vega Retter, Caren (Springer, 2016-05)Tristerix corymbosus (Loranthaceae) is a keystone mistletoe from the South American temperate rainforests. As most mistletoes, T. corymbosus relies on biotic pollination and seed dispersal, which may cause population ...

Botto Mahan, Carezza; Bacigalupo Bacigalupo, Antonella; Correa Galaz, Juana; Fonturbel, Francisco E.; Cattan Ayala, Pedro; (The Royal Society, 2020)Vector-borne infectious disease dynamics result mainly from the intertwined effect of the diversity, abundance, and behaviour of hosts and vectors. Most studies, however, have analysed the relationship between host-species ...

Rodríguez Gómez, Gloria; Fonturbel, Francisco E. (Oxford University Press, 2020)Habitat structure may have a significant influence on the occurrence, abundance, and activity patterns of forest mammals. However, anthropogenic habitat disturbance changes habitat structure, which may alter those patterns ...

Fonturbel, Francisco E.; Rodríguez Gómez, Gloria B.; Fernández, Nerea; García, Benat; Orellana, José I.; Castaño-Villa, Gabriel J. (Elsevier, 2020)Point counts are widely used to assess bird diversity. However, this method has some limitations and can be affected by observer bias. For this reason, it is commonly complemented with other methods (e.g., mist-nets, sound ...

Donoso, M. Isabel; Fonturbel, Francisco E.; Cares, Rocio A.; Oda, Esteban; Ramírez, Patricia A.; Botto Mahan, Carezza (Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)Small mammals use plant species for gathering food resources and for shelter. Preferences for certain plant species are related to nutritional restrictions and behavioural patterns, which could be altered in the presence ...
