Biodiversity and the functioning of seagrass ecosystems (2006, background): “…of periphyton–grazer experiments (Hillebrand & Cardinale 2004), a metaanalysis of terrestrial trophic cascade experiments (Schmitz et al. 2000), data on parasitoid control in terrestrial food webs (Montoya et al. 2003), and an explicit experimental test in a seagrass system (Duffy et al. 2005).”
Food webs: reconciling the structure and function of biodiversity. (2012, background): “Achieving a mechanistic understanding of how biodiversity relates to ecosystem function is necessary for estimating the impacts of species loss and invasion, and in managing ecosystems for ecosystem services [10].”
GREATER PREDATION IN SHADED COFFEE FARMS: THE ROLE OF RESIDENT NEOTROPICAL BIRDS (2004, unknown): “…(Polis et al. 2000, Schmitz et al. 2000) indirect interactions (Schmitz 1998, Dyer and Letourneau 2003), functional biodiversity (Chapin et al. 1997), and complexity-begets-stability, redressed in the language of complex systems (McCann et al. 1998, Fussman and Heber 2002, Montoya et al. 2003).”
Network ecology: topological constraints on ecosystem dynamics (2004, background): “An approach complementing topology by both the strength and sign of interactions has been suggested recently for quantifying the interactions between parasitoids and herbivores (net interaction effect, NIE, (108)).”
The Various Effects of Insects on Ecosystem Functioning (2008, background): “…can only be unravelled through manipulative studies where the number of insects in the ecosystem is either augmented or reduced, yet such studies are still very rare (e.g. Mulder et al. 1999; Belovsky and Slade 2000; Cardinale et al. 2002; 2003; Mitchell 2003; Montoya et al. 2003; Schmitz 2003).”
Interaction strengths in food webs: issues and opportunities (2004, background): “Additionally, not only stability but also ecosystem functions might be strongly mediated by the arrangement of interaction strengths (Mikola & Setälä 1998; Duffy 2002; Montoya et al .”
Conservation of species interaction networks (2010, background): “Yet despite these positive impacts of interaction richness on ecosystem function, interference between consumer species can sometimes outweigh potential complementarity effects, leading to reduced ecosystem function with increasing consumer diversity (Montoya et al., 2003; Finke and Denno, 2004).”
Topological keystone species : measures of positional importance in food webs (2006, background): “1999), the clustering coefficient (Montoya and Solé 2002), the net interaction effect (Montoya et al. 2003) and medium articulation (Wilhelm 2003).”
Functional benefits of predator species diversity depend on prey identity (2005, background): “Determining the functional significance of species diversity in natural enemy assemblages has become an important issue to those studying the ecology of predator–prey interactions and those interested in the role of biodiversity in maintaining ecosystems services (Mooney et al., 1995; Rodriguez & Ha”
Are the conservation of natural enemy biodiversity and biological control compatible goals (2008, background): “Hawkins (2000) nd hyperparastoids attacking wasp larvae on Montoya et al. (2003)”
Characterization of topological keystone species: Local, global and “meso-scale” centralities in food webs (2007, background): “On the other hand, the total parasitism rates correlates negatively with the clustering coefficient of the food web (Montoya et al., 2003).”
