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 ... -
Efficiency of pitfall traps and snap traps in small terrestrial mammals depends on their diet composition
Čepelka, Ladislav; Michalko, Radek; Kula, Emanuel (Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK), 2019)We compared the monitoring of small terrestrial mammals among forest stands by pitfalls and snap traps. The captures took place in the Czech Republic in the Moravskoslezske Beskydy Mts. (2007-2012) on 16 plots in adult ... -
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 ... -
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 ...
