[HTML][HTML] Variation in extrafloral nectary productivity influences the ant foraging
Extrafloral nectar is the main food source offered by plants to predatory ants in most land
environments. Although many studies have demonstrated the importance of extrafloral …

Influence of extrafloral nectary phenology on ant–plant mutualistic networks in a neotropical savanna
1.Temporal variation has been one remarkable feature of ecological interactions. In ant–plant
mutualism, this variation is widely known, although little is understood about the …

Climate seasonality drives ant–plant–herbivore interactions via plant phenology in an extrafloral nectary‐bearing plant community
Interactions between ants and plants bearing extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) are among the
most common mutualisms in Neotropical regions. Plants secrete extrafloral nectar, a …

[HTML][HTML] Ant-plant interaction in a tropical savanna: may the network structure vary over time and influence on the outcomes of associations?
D Lange, K Del-Claro - PLoS One, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Plant-animal interactions occur in a community context of dynamic and complex ecological
interactive networks. The understanding of who interacts with whom is a basic information, …

Loss and gains in ant–plant interactions mediated by extrafloral nectar: fidelity, cheats, and lies
All mutualistic plant–animal interactions are mediated by costs and benefits in relationships
where resources (from plants) are exchanged by services (from animals). The most common …

Optimal defense theory in an ant–plant mutualism: extrafloral nectar as an induced defence is maximized in the most valuable plant structures
Plants allocate defences in order to decrease costs and maximize benefits against herbivores.
The Optimal Defense Theory (ODT) predicts that continuously expressed (ie constitutive) …

Foliar anti-herbivore defenses in Qualea multiflora Mart.(Vochysiaceae): changing strategy according to leaf development
Abstract Knowledge about plant defense systems against herbivory is crucial to understanding
trophic relationships in terrestrial ecosystems. Distinct defenses may act either alone or in …

Adverse interaction effects of chronic and acute sleep deficits on spatial working memory but not on verbal working memory or declarative memory
E Hennecke, D Lange, F Steenbergen… - Journal of sleep …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
The accumulation of chronic sleep deficits combined with acute sleep loss is common in
shift workers and increases the risk of errors and accidents. We investigated single and …

Natural history and ecology of foraging of the Camponotus crassus Mayr, 1862 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
Ants are abundant in terrestrial ecosystems, especially in the Brazilian Cerrado, where they
can play several roles at different levels of the food chain, including protection of plants …
