le Roux P, Shaw J, Chown S
New Phytol
. 2013 Jun;
200(1):241-250.
PMID: 23738758
Environmental conditions and plant size may both alter the outcome of inter-specific plant-plant interactions, with seedlings generally facilitated more strongly than larger individuals in stressful habitats. However, the combined impact...

le Roux P, Lenoir J, Pellissier L, Wisz M, Luoto M
Ecology
. 2013 May;
94(3):671-82.
PMID: 23687893
Studies of species range determinants have traditionally focused on abiotic variables (typically climatic conditions), and therefore the recent explicit consideration of biotic interactions represents an important advance in the field....

VAN DER Mescht L, le Roux P, Matthee S
Parasitology
. 2012 Oct;
140(3):368-77.
PMID: 23101765
Habitat fragmentation can adversely impact biodiversity, although where remnant fragments of natural vegetation provide favourable conditions the negative effects of fragmentation may be mitigated. Host-parasite systems in fragmented areas have...

Chown S, le Roux P, Ramaswiela T, Kalwij J, Shaw J, McGeoch M
Biol Lett
. 2012 Oct;
9(1):20120806.
PMID: 23097460
Climate change leads to species range shifts and consequently to changes in diversity. For many systems, increases in diversity capacity have been forecast, with spare capacity to be taken up...

Born C, le Roux P, Spohr C, McGeoch M, van Vuuren B
Mol Ecol
. 2011 Dec;
21(1):184-94.
PMID: 22129220
Climatic conditions and landscape features often strongly affect species' local distribution patterns, dispersal, reproduction and survival and may therefore have considerable impacts on species' fine-scale spatial genetic structure (SGS). In...

J Exp Biol
. 2011 Oct;
214(Pt 22):3713-25.
PMID: 22031735
The acute thermal tolerance of ectotherms has been measured in a variety of ways; these include assays where organisms are shifted abruptly to stressful temperatures and assays where organisms experience...

Am J Bot
. 2011 May;
98(5):909-14.
PMID: 21613188
Premise Of The Study: In abiotically severe habitats, intraspecific aggregations can increase species' fitness by ameliorating stressful environmental factors. However, the difficulty of identifying individual plants in some growth forms...

Ecol Appl
. 2009 Dec;
19(8):2038-48.
PMID: 20014577
The estimation of species abundances at regional scales requires a cost-efficient method that can be applied to existing broadscale data. We compared the performance of eight models for estimating species...

le Roux P, McGeoch M
Oecologia
. 2008 Feb;
155(4):831-44.
PMID: 18253754
The stress-gradient hypothesis predicts that the intensity of interspecific positive interactions increases along environmental severity (i.e. stress and disturbance) gradients faster than the intensity of negative interactions. This study is...
