Plant diversity accurately predicts insect diversity in two tropical landscapes.
Plant diversity surely determines arthropod diversity, but only moderate correlations between arthropod and plant species richness had been observed until Basset et al. (Science, 338, 2012 and 1481) finally undertook an unprecedentedly comprehensive sampling of a tropical forest and demonstrated that plant species richness could indeed accurately predict arthropod species richness. We now requi...
متن کاملArthropod Diversity and Pest Suppression in Agricultural Landscapes
Research at the Kellogg Biological Station Long-Term Ecological Research site (KBS LTER) is focused on understanding the ecological interactions underlying the productivity of row-crop ecosystems. Within these systems, insect pests and weeds represent two major groups of organisms that farmers must consistently and effectively manage. Since its inception in 1989, entomologists associated with K...
متن کاملDurable strategies to deploy plant resistance in agricultural landscapes.
The deployment of resistant crops often leads to the emergence of resistance-breaking pathogens that suppress the yield benefit provided by the resistance. Here, we theoretically explored how farmers' main leverages (resistant cultivar choice, resistance deployment strategy, landscape planning and cultural practices) can be best combined to achieve resistance durability while minimizing yield l...
متن کاملConservation planning in agricultural landscapes: hotspots of conflict between agriculture and nature
AIM Conservation conflict takes place where food production imposes a cost on wildlife conservation and vice versa. Where does conservation impose the maximum cost on production, by opposing the intensification and expansion of farmland? Where does conservation confer the maximum benefit on wildlife, by buffering and connecting protected areas with a habitable and permeable matrix of crop and n...
متن کاملAcoustic Observations in Agricultural Landscapes
Sounds emanating from various habitats and ecosystems provide a rich source of information to interpret ecological phenomena at multiple scales. Acoustic communication is a fundamental property of many animals for breeding and defending territories (Fletcher 1953, Peterson and Dorcas 1994), and acoustic signatures can be used to measure the spatial and temporal distributions of vocal organisms ...
