Adaptive rewiring and temperature tolerance shape the architecture of plant-pollinator networks globally

The paper models how temperature affects plant-pollinator networks by integrating temperature tolerance and adaptive rewiring, showing declines in specialization and increases in connectance and nestedness with rising temperatures.

Behavioral variation affects persistence of an experimental food-chain

This study shows that prey dropping behavior reduces food-chain persistence, with dropper treatments having higher extinction risk than mixed or non-dropper treatments.

Predicting recoverability of collapsed food webs through perturbation and dimension reduction

This study predicts the recoverability of collapsed food webs using dimension reduction and perturbation analysis, showing that topological features like connectance and predator links influence recovery.

Evolution of genetic variance and its consequences oneco-evolutionary response in complex mutualistic networks

This study shows that evolving genetic variance and network architecture enhance resilience of plant-pollinator networks to temperature shifts by promoting faster adaptation and reducing trait lag.
