MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropods / physiology; Biodiversity; Extinction, Biological; Food Chain; Plant Development; Plants; Population Density
TL;DR:
The results demonstrate that, over the long term, the loss of plant species propagates through food webs, greatly decreasing arthropod species richness, shifting a predator-dominated trophic structure to being herbivore dominated, and likely impacting ecosystem functioning and services.

The movement ecology and dynamics of plant communities in fragmented landscapes
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 105(49), 19078–19083.
author keywords: corridors; dispersal; diversity; life-history traits; species richness
MeSH headings : Biodiversity; Ecology / methods; Ecosystem; Models, Biological; Plants; Population Dynamics
TL;DR:
This framework was modified to generate predictions for species richness dynamics of fragmented plant communities and found that two external factors affected species colonization and recolonization in habitat fragments and their effects varied and depended on motion capacity.

Low-quality habitat corridors as movement conduits for two butterfly species
ECOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS, 15(1), 250–257.
author keywords: butterfly; connectivity; conservation; corridor; dispersal; Euptoieta claudia; fragmentation; gene flow; habitat quality; Junonia coenia; landscape experiment; small populations
TL;DR:
It is shown that open-habitat corridors can serve as dispersal conduits even when corridors do not support resident butterfly populations, and that for species that can traverse corridors within a generation, corridor habitat may be lower in quality than larger patches and still increase dispersal and gene flow.

Predicting which species will benefit from corridors in fragmented landscapes from population growth models
AMERICAN NATURALIST, 161(5), 808–820.
author keywords: conservation; corridor; model; metapopulation
MeSH headings : Conservation of Natural Resources; Ecosystem; Emigration and Immigration; Environment; Models, Biological; Time Factors
TL;DR:
A model of two logistically growing populations connected by migration in which both emigration and migration success were determined by the presence or absence of a corridor found that in the short run, corridors are most effective for species with fast‐growing populations that have low survivorship when dispersed through unsuitable habitat.

Corridors affect plants, animals, and their interactions in fragmented landscapes
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 99(20), 12923–12926.
MeSH headings : Animals; Birds; Butterflies; Conservation of Natural Resources; Ecology; Ecosystem; Environment; Plant Physiological Phenomena; Population Dynamics
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that corridors not only increase the exchange of animals between patches, but also facilitate two key plant–animal interactions: pollination and seed dispersal, and suggested that increased plant and animal movement through corridors will have positive impacts on plant populations and community interactions in fragmented landscapes.

author keywords: Papilio troilus; Sassafras albidum; host preference; landscape variation; oviposition
TL;DR:
The negative effects of pubescence on adult oviposition, larval growth rate, and larval survivorship suggest that the population size of P. troilus will reflect availability of nonpubescent hostplants, and may have unintended negative impacts on this butterfly population.
