The East-Atlantic flyway represents one of the main bird migration routes worldwide, comprising the Bay of Biscayas an inherent geographical barrier. So far, the significance of the Bay of Biscay for migrants and its ...
Nitrogen Source and External Medium pH Interaction Differentially Affects Root and Shoot Metabolism in Arabidopsis
(Frontiers Media, 2016-02-01)
Ammonium nutrition often represents an important growth-limiting stress in plants. Some of the symptoms that plants present under ammonium nutrition have been associated with pH deregulation, in fact external medium pH ...
Climate and Human Pressure Constraints Co-Explain Regional Plant Invasion at Different Spatial Scales
(Public Library Science, 2016-10-14)
Alien species invasion represents a global threat to biodiversity and ecosystems. Explaining invasion patterns in terms of environmental constraints will help us to assess invasion risks and plan control strategies. We aim ...
Habitat Complexity in Aquatic Microcosms Affects Processes Driven by Detritivores
(Public Library Science, 2016-11-01)
Habitat complexity can influence predation rates (e.g. by providing refuge) but other ecosystem processes and species interactions might also be modulated by the properties of habitat structure. Here, we focussed on how ...
