Journal ArticleDOI
Population dynamics : new approaches and synthesis
Naomi Cappuccino,Peter W. Price +1 more
TL;DR: Novel Approaches to the Study of Population Dynamics: P.W. Cappuccino, Using Density-Manipulation Experiments to Study Population Regulation and Novelty and Synthesis in the Development ofpopulation Dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel chemistry of invasive exotic plants.
Naomi Cappuccino,J.Thor Arnason +1 more
TL;DR: A comparison of exotic plant species that are highly invasive in North America with exotics that are widespread, but non-invasive revealed that the invasive plants were more likely to have potent secondary compounds that have not been reported from North American native plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Herbivory, time since introduction and the invasiveness of exotic plants
David Carpenter,Naomi Cappuccino +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that exotics suffered less herbivory than natives and this may indicate that a plant possesses potent defensive chemicals that are novel to North America, which may confer resistance to pathogens or enable allelopathy in addition to deterring herbivorous insects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invasive exotic plants suffer less herbivory than non-invasive exotic plants
Naomi Cappuccino,David Carpenter +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that invasive plants may possess novel phytochemicals with anti-herbivore properties in addition to allelopathic and anti-microbial characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spruce budworm impact, abundance and parasitism rate in a patchy landscape.
TL;DR: The tachinid Actiainterrupta, a parasitoid of fifth and sixth instar larvae, as well as the ichneumonid pupal parasitoids Itoplectesconquisitor, Ephialtesontario and Phaeogenesmaculicornis, caused higher mortality in the habitat islands than on true islands or in extensive stands.
