Network position of hosts in food webs and their parasite diversity (2008, background): “These factors include the abundance of host species (Vázquez et al. 2005, 2007) and phylogenetic constraints (Mouillot et al. 2008).”
Ecological networks, nestedness and sampling effort (2007, background): “The cells within the matrix are used to indicate whether there is an interaction between the plant and the animal species that intersect in the matrix cell (Bascompte et al . 2003) (Fig. 1). Recent work has described the structure of both plant-pollinator and other types of mutualistic networks (Bas”
Species abundance and asymmetric interaction strength in ecological networks (2007, methodology): “As in Vázquez et al. (2005b), the speciesspecific probabilities were proportional to species’ relative abundances (probabilities are in fact approximately proportional and not equal to relative abundances because of the requirement that each species receives at least one interaction; this…”
Interaction frequency as a surrogate for the total effect of animal mutualists on plants (2005, background): “…studies have identified a number of topological features of species interaction networks, as well as a variety of potential mechanisms accounting for such structure (Pimm et al. 1991; Williams & Martinez 2000; Bascompte et al. 2003; Cohen et al. 2003; Vázquez & Aizen 2005; Vázquez et al. 2005).”
Network properties of an epiphyte metacommunity (2007, background): “Interactions between predators and prey (Pimm 1982), pathogens and hosts (Vazquez et al. 2005), and mutualists (Bascompte et al.”
