1. Dynamics of the aphid-ant mutualism
Sammanfattning : An appreciation of the role of mutualism is essential when studying ecology and evolution in most ecosystems. Information covering aspects of mutualistic interactions can serve as a complement to the somewhat one-sided perspective from the 1950’s and 60’s that is used when teaching biology. LÄS MER
2. Predator psychology and mimicry evolution - a theoretical analysis
Sammanfattning : The evolution of Müllerian mimicry depends on many factors, among which predator psychology is the most important one. Predator avoidance learning, generalization and discrimination are primary selective agents during the evolutionary process. LÄS MER
3. Pollination adaptations in the Cimicifugae and the evolutionary origin of pollinator-plant mutualism
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Behaviour of Lycaenid butterfly larvae in their mutualistic interactions with ants
Sammanfattning : Interspecific mutualism often involves partners trading different kinds of services. The cost and benefits of the trade may differ from one interaction to the next, or fluctuate over time in a single interaction, due to factors both internal and external to the mutualism itself.

5. Plant Inducible Responses to Damage: Evolution and Ecological Implications
Sammanfattning : Abstract Inducible plant responses to damage, i.e. inducible defence responses and compensatory growth responses, are theoretically examined in an evolutionary and ecological context. Inducible defences are generally considered to be beneficial under conditions of low risk of herbivory and when initial damage is moderate. LÄS MER
