Interactions between Micro- and Macroparasites Predict Microparasite Species Richness across Primates

Creator:

Nunn, Charles L., Brezine, Carrie, Jolles, Anna E., and Ezenwa, Vanessa O.

Abstract:

Most wild animals face concurrent challenges by multiple infectious organisms, and immunological responses triggered by some parasites may increase susceptibility to other infectious agents. Immune-mediated interactions among parasites have been investigated among individuals in a population, but less is known about broader comparative patterns. We investigated the “macro-micro facilitation hypothesis”...

On Nonparametric Estimation: With a Focus on Agriculture

Creator:

Färe, Rolf, Grosskopf, Shawna, Pasurka, Carl, and Martins-Filho, Carlos

Abstract:

We review nonparametric estimation of efficiency and productivity, by which we mainly mean activity analysis, or data envelopment analysis (DEA). The review covers topics that we hope will be of special interest to those doing research in the realm of agriculture. We also include a brief appendix addressing nonparametric estimation...
