1.
Kirse A, Wittenhorst M, Scherber C, Posanski M, Scherges A, Zizka V, et al.
J Anim Ecol . 2025 Jan; PMID: 39853776
Understanding insect behaviour and its underlying drivers is vital for interpreting changes in local biodiversity and predicting future trends. Conventional insect traps are typically limited to assess the composition of...
2.
Kruger J, Buchholz S, Schmitt S, Blankenhaus K, Pernat N, Ott D, et al.
Ecol Evol . 2024 Sep; 14(9):e70256. PMID: 39224153
Movement performance of insects is an important measure of physiological fitness and is likely affected by novel stressors associated with global change. Reduced fitness can lead to smaller foraging areas...
3.
Perkins D, Hatton I, Gauzens B, Barnes A, Ott D, Rosenbaum B, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Aug; 13(1):4990. PMID: 36008387
The ratio of predator-to-prey biomass is a key element of trophic structure that is typically investigated from a food chain perspective, ignoring channels of energy transfer (e.g. omnivory) that may...
4.
Bauer B, Berti E, Ryser R, Gauzens B, Hirt M, Rosenbaum B, et al.
Ecol Lett . 2022 Mar; 25(5):1225-1236. PMID: 35286010
Despite intensive research on species dissimilarity patterns across communities (i.e. β-diversity), we still know little about their implications for variation in food-web structures. Our analyses of 50 lake and 48...
5.
Pollierer M, Klarner B, Ott D, Digel C, Ehnes R, Eitzinger B, et al.
Oecologia . 2021 Apr; 196(1):195-209. PMID: 33852071
Forest soil and litter is inhabited by a diverse community of animals, which directly and indirectly rely on dead organic matter as habitat and food resource. However, community composition may...
6.
Gutierrez Y, Fresch M, Ott D, Brockmeyer J, Scherber C
R Soc Open Sci . 2020 May; 7(4):200100. PMID: 32431901
Nutrition is the single most important factor for individual's growth and reproduction. Consequently, the inability to reach the nutritional optimum imposes severe consequences for animal fitness. Yet, under natural conditions,...
7.
Gutierrez Y, Ott D, Scherber C
Sci Rep . 2020 May; 10(1):7300. PMID: 32350369
Widespread application of synthetic pesticides and loss of plant diversity are regarded as significant drivers of current global change. The effects of such phenomena on insect performance have been extensively...

Meyer M, Ott D, Gotze P, Koch H, Scherber C
Ecol Evol . 2019 Aug; 9(12):7307-7323. PMID: 31380052
Agricultural landscapes are globally dominated by monocultures under intensive management. This is one of the main reasons for biodiversity loss and insect population decline in many regions all over the...

Brose U, Archambault P, Barnes A, Bersier L, Boy T, Canning-Clode J, et al.
Nat Ecol Evol . 2019 May; 3(6):919-927. PMID: 31110252
Predator-prey interactions in natural ecosystems generate complex food webs that have a simple universal body-size architecture where predators are systematically larger than their prey. Food-web theory shows that the highest...

Gutierrez Y, Ott D, Topperwien M, Salditt T, Scherber C
Ecol Evol . 2018 Aug; 8(15):7717-7732. PMID: 30151184
Imaging techniques are a cornerstone of contemporary biology. Over the last decades, advances in microscale imaging techniques have allowed fascinating new insights into cell and tissue morphology and internal anatomy...
