Is the composition of phytophagous insects and parasitic fungi among trees predictable? 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We explore the relationship between the pairwise similarity of assemblages of exploiters (phytophagous insects and parasitic fungi) and pairwise genetic distance, range overlap, niche overlap as well as habitat overlap of host trees. Presence of exploiters was extracted from published literature for 23 tree genera occurring in central Europe (6164 host records of phytophagous insects and 860 host records of parasitic fungi). Across all pairs of tree genera, we found a strong negative correlation between the pairwise similarity of assemblages and genetic distances of hosts. This close correlation is due to deep differences in the composition of assemblages on coniferous and deciduous tree genera. Range, niche and habitat overlap were always of much less importance than genetic distance to explain the variation of pairwise similarity of assemblages of exploiters, although some correlations were significant. Therefore in general host switches of exploiters between related hosts are more important that host switches between hosts co-occurring in the same habitat. We found a robust relationship of the pairwise similarity of assemblages of insects and the pairwise similarity of assemblages of fungi which points to the possibility that insects are vectors for parasitic fungi which promotes correlated switches of insects and fungi. 相似文献
