Avian brood parasitism as a model system for studying multispecies interactions
… Through the examination of tractable interactions between one species of brood parasite and one species of host, important insights have been gained on the processes that shape and regulate the world’s biodiversity. While research has favoured the examination of simpler pairwise …

The effects of endophytic Fusarium verticillioides on the interactions of maize and its fungal pathogen Ustilago maydis.
… theoretical studies suggest that the outcomes of multispecies interactions are often different from those of pairwise interactions, most empirical studies have focused on pairwise plant-pathogen interactions. Using endophytic isolates of Fusarium verticillioides (Sacc.) Nirenberg, the corn smut …

Constraint-based modeling of host-microbe and microbe-microbe metabolic interactions in the human gut
… has been successfully applied to predict multispecies interactions but rarely in the context of host-microbe interactions. In this thesis, a framework for predicting metabolic interactions between a host and its gut symbionts was developed. As reconstructions of representative gut …

The effect of aphids in parasitoid-caterpillar-plant interactions
… considered only within the context of pairwise interactions even though a species' distribution and abundance may be determined by interactions with many species within and between trophic levels. Multiple herbivores often share the same host and may interact indirectly by altering the …
