BACKGROUND
There are 500,000 cases per year of visceral leishmaniasis, which occurs primarily in the Indian subcontinent. Almost all untreated patients die, and all the effective agents have been… Expand

Effects of agricultural intensification (AI) on biodiversity are often assessed on the plot scale, although processes determining diversity also operate on larger spatial scales. Here, we analyzed… Expand
Small mammals in agricultural landscapes: Opposing responses to farming practices and landscape complexity
- C. Fischer, C. Thies, T. Tscharntke
- Geography
- 1 March 2011
Abstract Organic farming often counteracts the decline of various taxa owing to agricultural intensification, but little is known about the relative importance of local management and landscape… Expand
Species’ traits influence ground beetle responses to farm and landscape level agricultural intensification in Europe
- C. Winqvist, J. Bengtsson, +11 authors R. Bommarco
- Biology
- Journal of Insect Conservation
