Metapopulation Dynamics of the Tephritid Fly Urophora cardui: An Evaluation of Incidence-Function Model Assumptions with Field Data
Sabine Eber,Roland Brandl +1 more
TL;DR: Patch area is a reliable predictor for population size and the colonization probability of empty host plant patches was greater during years with low larval mortality and increased with patch size and neighbourhood density, while within the studied population system isolation was of minor importance for the colonization of empty patches.

Genotypic and Genetic Diversity of the Common Weed Cirsium arvense (Asteraceae)
TL;DR: Genotypic and genetic diversity within recently founded and established populations of the common weed Cirsium arvense was investigated and a considerable differentiation was found between populations.
Regional patch dynamics of Cirsium arvense and possible implications for plant-animal interactions
Sabine Eber,Roland Brandl +1 more
TL;DR: With decreasing patch sizes, U. cardui was faced with an increasingly dynamic landscape due to higher extinction rates of small patches, although the mean distance between host plant patches decreased, and patch density showed a consistent, non-random spatial pattern.

Ecological comparisons across geographical distributions: The thistle gall fly Urophora cardui (Diptera: Tephritidae) on two different Cirsium hosts
TL;DR: It is suggested that the synchronisation between the host plant species, the phytophage and the parasitoids is an important factor in the spatial ecology and evolution of this food web.
Endophagous insects and structural niches on plants: ecology and evolutionary consequences
TL;DR: The endophagous weevil Lixus elongatus was studied on two Carduus species in order to look for the impact of a structural gradient in host plant stem diameter on the life cycle and the genetic structure of this species.
