Interspecific assistance: fiddler crabs help heterospecific neighbours in territory defence.
Theory predicts that territory owners will help established neighbours to repel intruders, when doing so is less costly than renegotiating boundaries with successful usurpers of neighbouring territories. Here, we show for the first time, to our knowledge, cooperative territory defence between heterospecific male neighbours in the fiddler crabs Uca elegans and Uca mjoebergi. We show experimental...
متن کاملCompetitive environments sustain costly altruism with negligible assortment of interactions
Competition hinders the evolution of altruism amongst kin when beneficiaries gain at the expense of competing relatives. Altruism is consequently deemed to require stronger kin selection, or trait-selected synergies, or elastic population regulation, to counter this effect. Here we contest the view that competition puts any such demands on altruism. In ecologically realistic scenarios, competit...
متن کاملCompetitive and cooperative metabolic interactions in bacterial communities.
Revealing the ecological principles that shape communities is a major challenge of the post-genomic era. To date, a systematic approach for describing inter-species interactions has been lacking. Here we independently predict the competitive and cooperative potential between 6,903 bacterial pairs derived from a collection of 118 species' metabolic models. We chart an intricate association betwe...
متن کاملThe Interactions between the Lending Rates, Deposit Rates and Money Market Rates
T he present paper investigates the impact of the financial crisis on the interaction between the lending rates, deposit rates and money market rates through the process of retail bank interest rate pass-through in the countries of the Euro area. Among our findings is the heterogeneity of bank rate adjustments across sectors, loans and deposits. That was mainly marked during the pre-...
