Selective seed abortion induced by nectar robbing in the selfing plant <i>Comastoma pulmonarium
New Phytologist, 192(1), 249–255.
TL;DR:
It is suggested that nectar robbing can have both negative and positive effects on the quantity and quality, respectively, of progeny produced in selfing plants, and challenge the view that robbing has no effect on selfing species.

TL;DR:
Ambient nutrient levels and nutrient content of seagrass were elevated in high human population density sites, and may be one mechanism driving higher abundance and size of Cassiopea spp.

Variation in nutrient limitation and seagrass nutrient content in Bahamian tidal creek ecosystems
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 407(2), 330–336.
author keywords: Estuary; Mangrove; Nitrogen; Nutrient availability; Nutrient enrichment; Phosphorus
TL;DR:
Assessing nutrient availability and limitation for primary producers along a spatial transect extending from the mouth to the terminal portion of three coastal mangrove-lined tidal creeks in The Bahamas suggests that even minor changes in nutrient loading rates can have significant implications for primary production in subtropical oligotrophic systems.

Energy flow to two abundant consumers in a subtropical oyster reef food web
Aquatic Ecology, 45(2), 267–277.
author keywords: Diet; Estuary; Lutjanus griseus; Lophogobius cyprinoides; Stable isotope analysis
TL;DR:
This work identified major trophic pathways to two abundant consumers, gray snapper and crested goby, from a subtropical oyster reef using stomach content and stable isotope analysis, and highlighted microphytobenthos, the most likely basal resource pool supportinggray snapper production on oyster reefs.

Effects of habitat heterogeneity at multiple spatial scales on fish community assembly
Oecologia, 167(1), 157–168.
author keywords: Artificial reef; Assembly rules; Landscape ecology; Habitat patch; Seagrass
MeSH headings : Animals; Bahamas; Body Size; Ecosystem; Fishes; Hydrocharitaceae
TL;DR:
Results of this study indicate that landscape features can drive differences in community assembly even within a general habitat type, and that human activities driving changes in seagrass cover may cause significant shifts in faunal community structure well before complete losses of seagRass habitat.

Translating Effects of Inbreeding Depression on Component Vital Rates to Overall Population Growth in Endangered Bighorn Sheep
CONSERVATION BIOLOGY, 25(6), 1240–1249.
author keywords: endangered species; fecundity; Ovis canadensis sierrae; population growth; recovery; Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep; crecimiento poblacional; especies en peligro; fecundidad; Ovis canadensis sierrae; recuperacion
MeSH headings : Animals; Conservation of Natural Resources; Endangered Species; Female; Fertility; Genetic Variation; Heterozygote; Inbreeding; Male; Microsatellite Repeats; Models, Genetic; Nevada; Population Density; Population Dynamics; Sexual Behavior, Animal; Sheep / genetics; Sheep / physiology
TL;DR:
Results suggest that inbreeding depression has reduced adult female fecundity in Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep, and the importance of quantifying inbreeding costs relative to population dynamics to effectively manage endangered populations is highlighted.

Influence of stand and landscape features on snowshoe hare abundance in fragmented forests
JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 92(3), 561–567.
author keywords: fecal pellets; forest fragmentation; landscape; Lepus americanus; relative abundance; snowshoe hare; Washington
TL;DR:
It is suggested that forest managers will have positive impacts on hare densities by managing both focal stands and the surrounding stands for the higher densities of large shrubs and saplings and medium trees that hares select.

Combining Measures of Dispersal to Identify Conservation Strategies in Fragmented Landscapes
CONSERVATION BIOLOGY, 25(5), 1022–1031.
author keywords: Atrytonopsis; connectivity; crystal skipper; habitat fragmentation; mark-recapture; population genetics; stepping stones
MeSH headings : Animals; Behavior, Animal / physiology; Butterflies / genetics; Butterflies / physiology; Conservation of Natural Resources / methods; Conservation of Natural Resources / statistics & numerical data; Demography; Ecosystem; Genetics, Population; Geography; North Carolina; Trees
TL;DR:
How the use of complementary approaches for studying animal dispersal in fragmented landscapes can help identify conservation strategies is highlighted, with results indicated natural features in the landscape, not urbanization, were barriers to dispersal.

Edge effects, not connectivity, determine the incidence and development of a foliar fungal plant disease
ECOLOGY, 92(8), 1551–1558.
author keywords: Cochliobolus heterostrophus; connectivity; conservation; corridors; edge effects; habitat fragmentation; pathogen dispersal; plant disease; Zea mays
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Biological; Ascomycota / physiology; Ecosystem; Host-Pathogen Interactions; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Zea mays / microbiology
TL;DR:
The results show that worries over the potentially harmful effects of conservation corridors on disease dynamics are misplaced, and that, in a conservation context, many diseases can be better managed by mitigating edge effects.

Can dispersal mode predict corridor effects on plant parasites?
ECOLOGY, 92(8), 1559–1564.
author keywords: Cercospora; Colletotrichum; dispersal; gall-inducing insects; habitat fragmentation; landscape corridors; Lespedeza spp.; movement ecology; pine plantation; plant disease; Solidago odora; Uromyces
MeSH headings : Animals; Ecosystem; Fungi / physiology; Insecta; Larva; Pinus / microbiology; Pinus / parasitology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Diseases / parasitology
TL;DR:
It is found that corridor impacts varied with parasite dispersal mode, and managers should focus on mitigating two potential negative effects: the indirect effects of narrow corridors in creating edges and direct effects of corridors in enhancing connectivity of biotically dispersed parasites.

Plant diversity and the stability of foodwebs
ECOLOGY LETTERS, 14(1), 42–46.
author keywords: Arthropods; biodiversity; consumers; herbivores; insects; long term; plant diversity; predators; stability; trophic structure
MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropods / physiology; Biodiversity; Food Chain; Minnesota; Plant Physiological Phenomena
TL;DR:
Results show that higher plant diversity provides more temporally consistent food and habitat resources to arthropod foodwebs, and actively managing for high plant diversity may have stronger than expected benefits for increasing animal diversity and controlling pest outbreaks.
