Distribution of pesticides in agroecosystem food webs differ among trophic groups and between annual and perennial crops
Michalko, Radek; Purchart, Luboš; Hofman, Jakub; Košulič, Ondřej (Springer France, 2024)Pesticides threaten biodiversity, but we know little about how they permeate food webs. Few studies have investigated the number, concentration, and composition of pesticides in agroecosystem food webs even though ... -
Epigeic spiders from lowland oak woodlands in the south Moravia region (Czech Republic)
Surovcová, Kamila; Košulič, Ondřej; Hula, Vladimír (Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2017)This paper presents spider faunistics from abandoned coppice oak forest stands located along the South Moravia region. Spiders were collected from May to July 2012 by pitfall trapping at eight different localities. We ... -
Faunistic Study on Spiders (Araneae) in the Špraněk National Nature Reserve with Suggestion to Conservation Management of the Locality
Košulič, Ondřej (Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2017)Spiders (Araneae) are a classic indicator taxon for evaluating the health of natural environments. Here, spiders from the forest ecosystems in Špraněk National Nature Reserve (Olomoucký Region) were investigated. A total ... -
Landscape and local factors drive pesticide distribution in perennial agroecosystems
Michalko, Radek; Purchart, Luboš; Košulič, Ondřej (Wiley-Blackwell, 2024)Pesticides constitute a major threat to biodiversity, but our understanding of the complex interactions between local and landscape factors influencing their distribution in agroecosystems remains limited. We conducted a ... -
Management Intensity and Forest Successional Stages as Significant Determinants of Small Mammal Communities in a Lowland Floodplain Forest
Suchomel, Josef; Šipoš, Jan; Košulič, Ondřej (MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2020)The conversion of forests from complex natural ecosystems to simplified commercial woodlands is one of the major causes of biodiversity loss. To maintain biodiversity, we need to understand how current management practices ... -
Trait diversity and spider community composition are associated with lower herbivory in young forest plantations
Khum, Warbota; Košulič, Ondřej; Michalko, Radek (Elsevier Science Inc., 2025)Spiders constitute a numerically dominant group of generalist predators in forest ecosystems, but their biocontrol function in forest plantations is not well understood. The biocontrol potential of spiders may depend upon ... -
Transformation of dry dipterocarp to dry evergreen forests alters food webs of web-building spiders and their prey
Michalko, Radek; Songsangchote, Chaowalit; Saksongmuang, Venus; Wongprom, Prasit; Trisurat, Yongyut; Košulič, Ondřej (Springer Netherlands, 2024)Anthropogenic habitat modification is a major contributor to global change. While the modification of natural habitats to agroecosystems attracts most of the attention, little is known about the conversion of one natural ...
