Global warming increases the aggressiveness of soil fungal pathogens, disrupts the structure of local microbiota, and reduces the suppressive capacity of agroecosystems.
Despite the fact that grooming has been studied for many decades, the extent to which its structure depends on the animal's circumstances has remained unclear.
The results are important for predicting ecosystem resilience, preserving biodiversity, and developing ecologically sound approaches to managing natural and agricultural areas.
