From apparent competition to facilitation, impacts of consumer niche construction on the coexistence and stability of consumer-resource communities

2018-05-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> In addition to their direct trophic effects, some consumers have a positive indirect effect on their resource, due to niche construction. A predator can facilitate its prey resource acquisition, through prey transport, or through modifications of nutrient cycling. Other predators defend their prey against other predators, or actively manage it, as in agriculture, which is found in numerous taxa s...
