(Sociedad de Biologia de Chile, 2009)Plant regeneration is strongly determined by light and soil moisture differences between habitats; both variables are modified by large-scale forest fragmentation. Several studies have indicated this alteration as the ...
-
(American Museum of Natural History, 2015)Darwin's naturalization hypothesis (DNH) states that the successful establishment of alien species is favored when the phylogenetic relationship between the colonizer and the recipient community is distant. From a population ...
-
(Universidad de Chile, 2021-07)La interacción antagónica que involucra a las plantas y sus insectos herbívoros es un proceso ecológico con un gran impacto sobre la biodiversidad y el funcionamiento de los ecosistemas terrestres. En distintas regiones ...
-
(2012)• Premise of the study: We isolated and characterized microsatellite markers for the California poppy, Eschscholzia californica, which is an invasive species in central Chile. • Methods and Results: A total of eight ...
-
(2004)Comparisons between regions with similar climates have traditionally helped to tackle big questions in evolutionary ecology and historical biogeography. We claim that plant invasion ecology can benefit greatly from further ...
-
(Elsevier, 2014)The utility of spatial conservation prioritization (SCP), could be limited by the biases produced by taxonomic uncertainty and by the lack of an accepted taxonomic checklist for a diverse group of species. Using information ...
-
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2015)Background: The explosive growth of urbanisation in Mediterranean ecosystems in Chile has favoured the rapid expansion of exotic plant species, yet factors driving these invasion patterns in adjacent natural areas remain ...
-
(2013)Natural protected areas (ASP) located in the south-central Chile (Región Metropolitana-Región de la Araucanía) are a conservation relict embedded in agricultural and silvicultural matrices. We compared the taxonomic diversity ...
-
(2017-11)En la relación parásito-hospedero se ha evidenciado que ciertos parásitos pueden producir distintos cambios en sus hospederos, incluyendo alteraciones fisiológicas, morfológicas y/o conductuales. Un ejemplo de lo anterior ...
-
(2011)Theory predicts that in more stressful environments, positive plant-plant interactions should be more important than negative ones. For instance, in arid and semiarid regions, amelioration of soil drought produced by the ...
-
(Wiley, 2012)Plant-animal interaction networks provide important information on community organization. One of the most critical assumptions of network analysis is that the observed interaction patterns constitute an adequate sample ...
-
(2011)The expression of phenotypically plastic traits in prey organisms, triggered by changes in the abundance of their predators, is customarily assumed to involve costs in some fitness components such as fecundity, growth or ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2014)©2014 Goncalves et al.Lantana camara, a native plant from tropical America, is considered one of the most harmful invasive species worldwide. Several studies have identified potentially invasible areas under scenarios of ...
-
(1995)Comparative studies of granivory intensity across different arid and semi‐and regions of the world have assumed homogeneity of conditions over large geographical areas, despite the existence of evident heterogeneities at ...
-
(2007)Forest fragmentation alters plant-animal interactions, including herbivory. Relying manipulative experiments, we test if the reduction in insect herbivory associated with forest fragmentation translates into increased ...
-
(2005)Forest fragmentation facilitates the invasion of exotic species. This threat may be especially severe if forest fragments are surrounded by plantations of exotic species like Pinus radiata, an aggressive colonizer and ...
-
(2009)Changes in landscape structure are generally associated to physical, biological and social factors. However, their integrated analysis is rarely done. The objective of this study was to determine the distribution patterns ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2019)Pine invasion is a global threat that is occurring in native forests of diverse regions of the world. This process is arising in a scenario of rapid forest deforestation and degradation. Therefore, elucidate which forests ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2018)© 2018 The Royal Entomological Society The Mediterranean recluse spider, Loxosceles rufescens (Dufour, 1820) (Araneae: Sicariidae) is a cosmopolitan spider that has been introduced in many parts of the world. Its bite can ...
-
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre, 2014)© 2014 REABIC. Aquatic invasive species are a major threat to native freshwater ecosystems and cause enormous ecological and economic damage worldwide. Didymosphenia geminata (Lyngbye) M. Schmidt is an emerging invasive ...
