The resilience of plant–pollinator networks
J Bascompte, M Scheffer - Annual Review of Entomology, 2023 - annualreviews.org
There is growing awareness of pollinator declines worldwide. Conservation efforts have
mainly focused on finding the direct causes, while paying less attention to building a …

[HTML][HTML] Nestedness in complex networks: observation, emergence, and implications
MS Mariani, ZM Ren, J Bascompte, CJ Tessone - Physics Reports, 2019 - Elsevier
The observed architecture of ecological and socio-economic networks differssignificantly

Coexistence in diverse communities with higher-order interactions
A central assumption in most ecological models is that the interactions in a community
operate only between pairs of species. However, two species may interactively affect the …

Intraspecific variation in species interactions promotes the feasibility of mutualistic assemblages
Patterns of resource use observed at the species level emerge from the way individuals
exploit the range of available resources. Hence, accounting for interindividual differences in …

A keystone gene underlies the persistence of an experimental food web
MA Barbour, DJ Kliebenstein, J Bascompte - Science, 2022 - science.org
Genes encode information that determines an organism's fitness. Yet we know little about
whether genes of one species influence the persistence of interacting species in an …

Experimental evidence of the importance of multitrophic structure for species persistence
I Bartomeus, S Saavedra, RP Rohr… - Proceedings of the …, 2021 - National Acad Sciences
Ecological theory predicts that species interactions embedded in multitrophic networks
shape the opportunities for species to persist. However, the lack of experimental support of …

On the consequences of the interdependence of stabilizing and equalizing mechanisms
We present an overlooked but important property of modern coexistence theory (MCT),
along with two key new results and their consequences. The overlooked property is that …

The assembly and dynamics of ecological communities in an ever‐changing world
Alternative perspectives on the maintenance of biodiversity and the assembly of ecological
communities suggest that both processes cannot be investigated simultaneously. In this …

Towards a probabilistic understanding about the context-dependency of species interactions
Observational and experimental studies have shown that an interaction class between two
species (be it mutualistic, competitive, antagonistic, or neutral) may switch to a different …

Structural asymmetry in biotic interactions as a tool to understand and predict ecological persistence
A Allen‐Perkins, D García‐Callejas… - Ecology …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
A universal feature of ecological systems is that species do not interact with others with the
same sign and strength. Yet, the consequences of this asymmetry in biotic interactions for …
