ask for reference

[Yves Samyn]

Dear Colleague,

For your information: one of the latest issues of Nature captured such a
study.

Herewith the reference:
Moore P.D. 2005. Where slugs may safely graze. /Nature/ 436: 35-36.

Therein you'll find the original reference:
Buschmann /et al./ 2005. /J. Funct Ecol /19: 291-298

With kind regards,

Yves
