Plant-pollinator population dynamics.
We formulate and analyze a multi-generation population dynamics model for pollinators' mutualism with plants. The centerpiece of our model is an analytical expression for population-level plant-pollinator interactions extrapolated from a model of individual-level flowers and bees interactions. We also show that this analytical expression can be productively approximated by the Beddington-DeAnge...
متن کاملInsect Herbivores and Plant Population Dynamics
It is one thing to show that herbivorous insects affect plant performance. It is an entirely different matter to demonstrate that insect herbivory affects plant population dynamics. There is a vast literature on insect pests of crop plants that shows how attack by defoliating, sucking, stem-mining, and gall-forming species can delay seed ripening, reduce seed production and individual seed weig...
متن کاملPlant Population Dynamics in a Patchy System*
Patchiness has been increasingly recognized by ecologists as a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature. Therefore, substantial research has been directed at modeling the dynamics of metapopulations in patchy habitat settings (e.g., den Boer, 1968; Levins, 1969, 1970; Levins and Culver, 1971; Roff, 1974a,b; Levin, 1976b, 1978; Hastings, 1982, 1991; Hanski, 1983, 1985, 1991; Fahrig and Merriam, 1985; DeA...
متن کاملPlant pathogen population dynamics in potato fields.
Modern technologies incorporating Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), remote sensing, and geostatistics provide unique opportunities to advance ecological understanding of pests across a landscape. Increased knowledge of the population dynamics of plant pathogens will promote management strategies, such as site-specific management, and cultural practices mini...
متن کاملStochastic functional population dynamics with jumps
In this paper we use a class of stochastic functional Kolmogorov-type model with jumps to describe the evolutions of population dynamics. By constructing a special Lyapunov function, we show that the stochastic functional differential equation associated with our model admits a unique global solution in the positive orthant, and, by the exponential martingale inequality with jumps, we dis...
