In: Ecological Monographs, 2017, p. -

Although observations of species-rich communities have long served as a primary motivation for research on the coexistence of competitors, the majority of our empirical and theoretical understanding comes from two-species systems. How much of the coexistence observed in species rich communities results from indirect effects among competitors that only emerge in diverse systems remains poorly...

Nested species interactions promote feasibility over stability during the assembly of a pollinator community

Saavedra, Serguei ; Rohr, Rudolf P. ; Olesen, Jens M. ; Bascompte, Jordi

In: Ecology and Evolution, 2016, p. -

The foundational concepts behind the persistence of ecological communities have been based on two ecological properties: dynamical stability and feasibility. The former is typically regarded as the capacity of a community to return to an original equilibrium state after a perturbation in species abundances and is usually linked to the strength of interspecific interactions. The latter is the...
