Habitat heterogeneity and mammalian predatorprey interactions
1. In predator–prey theory, habitat heterogeneity can affect the relationship between kill rates and prey or predator density through its effect on the predator’s ability to search for, encounter, kill and consume its prey. Many studies of predator– prey interactions include the effect of spatial heterogeneity, but these are mostly based on species with restricted mobility or conducted in exper...
متن کاملVariation in predator foraging behaviour changes predatorprey spatiotemporal dynamics
1. Foraging underlies the ability of all animals to acquire essential resources and thus provides a critical link to understand population dynamics. A key issue is how variation in foraging behaviour affects foraging efficiency and predator–prey interactions in spatially heterogeneous environments. However, there is very little quantitative information available on this topic. 2. We evaluated t...
متن کاملInvIGOrating mRNAs during Quiescence.
In this issue of Molecular Cell, De Virgilio and colleagues (Talarek et al., 2010) identify the Igo1/2 proteins as factors that protect mRNAs from degradation during quiescence.
متن کاملEscaping death to quiescence
Cancer recurrence is associated with treatment failure and is the main cause of death, 1 and thus remains to be a major clinical challenge. elevated level of the cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) correlates with cancer recurrence and treatment resistance in patients with breast cancer or colorectal cancer. 2,3 it is proposed that defects in CDKs may lead to the accumulated genetic defects, which...
متن کاملModelling mammalian cellular quiescence.
Cellular quiescence is a reversible non-proliferating state. The reactivation of 'sleep-like' quiescent cells (e.g. fibroblasts, lymphocytes and stem cells) into proliferation is crucial for tissue repair and regeneration and a key to the growth, development and health of higher multicellular organisms, such as mammals. Quiescence has been a primarily phenotypic description (i.e. non-permanent ...
