متن کاملEffect of an Invasive Plant and Moonlight on Rodent Foraging Behavior in a Coastal Dune Ecosystem
Understanding how invasive plants may alter predator avoidance behaviors is important for granivorous rodents because their foraging can trigger ripple effects in trophic webs. Previous research has shown that European beach grass Ammophila arenaria, an invasive species in coastal California, affects the predation of other seeds by the rodents Microtus californicus, Peromyscus maniculatus, and ...
متن کاملRapid Evolution of an Invasive Plant
Exotic plants often face different conditions from those experienced where they are native. The general issue of how exotics respond to unfamiliar environments within their new range is not well understood. Phenotypic plasticity has historically been seen as the primary mechanism enabling exotics to colonize large, environmentally diverse areas. However, new work indicates that exotics can evol...
متن کاملA framework for determining the fitness consequences of antipredator behavior
A recent review by Lind and Cresswell (2005) noted some important difficulties with quantifying the fitness consequences of antipredator behaviors. In this paper, we discuss the conceptual and analytical tools available to behavioral ecologists for approaching the question of adaptive value in the broader context of whole organism performance and total fitness. Because these tools already exist...
متن کاملFirst report of the invasive plant Araujia from Iran
A sample collected from the citrus orchards of the Sari Township, Mazandaran province (N Iran), was determined as Araujia sericifera Brot. (Apocynaceae), according to Markgraf (1972). This species and the genus Araujia, is new to Iran and the region covered by Flora Iranica (Rechinger 1970, 1974).
