Curr Biol
. 2025 Feb;
PMID: 39986282
Maritime shipping is vital for commercial trade and well recognized as a main pathway for the spread of non-native species. For over a century, the Panama Canal in Central America...

PMID: 39480095
The rise of the Isthmus of Panama separated the populations of many marine organisms, which then diverged into new geminate sister species currently living in the Eastern Pacific Ocean and...

Biogeographic and seasonal differences in consumer pressure underlie strong predation in the tropics
Repetto M, Torchin M, Ruiz G, Schloder C, Freestone A
Proc Biol Sci
. 2024 Jul;
291(2026):20240868.
PMID: 38955327
Biotic interactions play a critical role in shaping patterns of global biodiversity. While several macroecological studies provide evidence for stronger predation in tropical regions compared with higher latitudes, results are...

Tepolt C, Blakeslee A, Fowler A, Darling J, Torchin M, Miller A, et al.
J Biogeogr
. 2024 Jan;
47(11):2532-2542.
PMID: 38269398
Aim: Genetic structure has proven difficult to predict for marine and estuarine species with multi-day pelagic larval durations, since many disperse far less than expected based on passive transport models....

Sharpe D, Valverde M, De Leon L, Hendry A, Torchin M
Ecology
. 2023 Sep;
104(12):e4173.
PMID: 37768609
Biological invasions are expected to alter food web structure, but there are limited empirical data directly comparing invaded versus uninvaded food webs, particularly in species-rich, tropical systems. We characterize for...

Science
. 2022 Jun;
376(6598):1215-1219.
PMID: 35679394
Early naturalists suggested that predation intensity increases toward the tropics, affecting fundamental ecological and evolutionary processes by latitude, but empirical support is still limited. Several studies have measured consumption rates...

Davidson T, Smith C, Torchin M
Ecology
. 2021 Dec;
103(3):e3604.
PMID: 34897657
The enemy release hypothesis (ERH) posits that introduced species often leave their enemies behind when introduced to a new range. This release from enemies may allow introduced species to achieve...

PLoS Biol
. 2021 Aug;
19(8):e3001322.
PMID: 34411089
Marine multicellular organisms host a diverse collection of bacteria, archaea, microbial eukaryotes, and viruses that form their microbiome. Such host-associated microbes can significantly influence the host's physiological capacities; however, the...

Mol Ecol
. 2021 Jun;
30(17):4321-4337.
PMID: 34162013
By shuffling biogeographical distributions, biological invasions can both disrupt long-standing associations between hosts and parasites and establish new ones. This creates natural experiments with which to study the ecology and...
