patterns of trophic niche divergence between invasive and native fishes in wild communities are predictable from mesocosm studies. | ecological theory attempts to predict how impacts for native species arise from biological invasions. a fundamental question centres on the feeding interactions of invasive and native species: whether invasion will result in increased interspecific competition, which would result in negative consequences for the competing species, or trophic niche divergence, which would facilitate the invader's integration into the community and their coexistence with native species. here, the feeding interacti ... | 2015 | 25732893 |
