Granivore abundance shapes mutualism quality in plant–scatterhoarder interactions
Conditional mutualisms involve costs and benefits that vary with environmental factors, but
mechanisms driving these dynamics remain poorly understood. Scatterhoarder–plant …

[HTML][HTML] Avian dispersal of an invasive oak is modulated by acorn traits and the presence of a native oak
Successful invasions of non-native plants often depend on establishing mutualistic
interactions with native organisms. Animal seed dispersers can greatly enhance the spread …

Host body mass, not sex, affects ectoparasite loads in yellow-necked mouse Apodemus flavicollis
We investigated the presence and potential causes of sex bias in ectoparasite infestations in
the yellow-necked mouse Apodemus flavicollis. We compared the natural tick and flea …

Small mammal controls on the climate‐driven range shift of woody plant species
Climate change is resulting in shifts in species' ranges as species inhabit new climatically
suitable areas. A key factor affecting range‐shifts is the interaction with predators. Small …
