Choosing natural enemies for conservation biological control: use of the prey detectability half‐life to rank key predators of Colorado potato beetle (2010, background): “Both the number and identity of species within a predator complex can determine the level of prey suppression (Root, 1973; Snyder et al., 2004; Ives et al., 2005).”
Why biodiversity is important to oceanography: potential roles of genetic, species, and trophic diversity in pelagic ecosystem processes (2006, background): “This could occur either by resource partitioning, as different predators suppress different prey, or by predator facilitation, in which one predator species alters prey behavior, making it more susceptible to a second predator (see Ives et al. 2005 for a fuller discussion).”
Biodiversity-Ecosystem Function Research: Is It Relevant to Conservation? (2005, background): “…in cases where consumers previously complemented each other in consumption efficiency (Norberg 2000, Sommer et al. 2001), or where high diversity allowed the most efficient predator species to persist (Fox 2004b, Holt & Loreau 2002), a type of sampling effect (Denoth et al. 2002, Ives et al. 2005).”
The Influence of Intraguild Predation on the Suppression of a Shared Prey Population: An Empirical Reassessment (2006, background): “Polis and Holt’s earliest models have been extended in a variety of ways, to include variable ecosystem productivity, stage structure, saturating functional responses, and immigration (Diehl and Feissel 2000, Mylius et al. 2001, Revilla 2002, Briggs and Borer 2005, Ives et al. 2005 ).”
Functional benefits of predator species diversity depend on prey identity (2005, background): “That said, the study of natural biocontrol and multiple enemy effects has remained largely distinct from the ongoing debate over how biodiversity affects ecosystem function (Cardinale et al., 2003; but see Ives et al., 2005).”
Species richness changes across two trophic levels simultaneously affect prey and consumer biomass (2005, background): “…al. 2002; Loreau et al. 2002 for overviews), it is not until recently that the multitrophic effects of diversity change have been analysed (Duffy 2002; Raffaelli et al. 2002; Duffy et al. 2003; Thébault & Loreau 2003; Fox 2004; Hillebrand & Cardinale 2004; Petchey et al. 2004; Ives et al. 2005).”
The relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in food webs (2005, background): “This requires merging biodiversity–ecosystem functioning and food-web theory (Ives et al. 2005).”
The functional role of biodiversity in ecosystems: incorporating trophic complexity. (2007, background): “…effects that are established by resource partitioning and sampling (Ives et al. 2005), which tend to be the principal mechanisms underlying diversity effects and are fundamentally similar across trophic levels (Holt & Loreau 2002; Fox 2003, 2004; Thébault & Loreau 2003, 2005; Ives et al. 2005).”
