Flexible foraging decisions made by workers of the social wasp Vespula germanica (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in response to different resources: influence of ontogenetic shifts and colony feedback
(Wiley, 2022-04)Decisions made by foraging animals conform a complex process based on the integration of information from multiple external environmental stimuli and internal physiological signals, which in turn are modulated by individual ... -
Temperature and host plant species affect the performance and immunocompetence of an outbreak defoliator in northwestern Patagonia
(Royal Entomological Society, 2022-03)1. Rising temperature has been associated with increased occurrence of herbivorous insect outbreaks, explained by several direct and indirect mechanisms. Whereas natural enemies are known key drivers of forest-defoliating ... -
Optimizing breeding structures and related management in community-based goat breeding programs in the Borana pastoral system of Ethiopia
(Elsevier, 2022)The study simulated different potential breeding programs to design the optimal breeding structure and operational management structure for Borana goat. It evaluated different scenarios using ZPLAN+ software to maximize ... -
Climatic determinants of photosynthetic activity in humid subtropical forests under different forestry activities
(Elsevier, 2022)Forests are key ecosystems providing a variety of contributions to societies that are based on the ecological processes occurring in them. Understanding the relationship between ecological processes and the climate system ... -
