Altered nutrient cycling functionality in seagrass meadows under a simulated future marine heatwave event

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 2616-2629, September 2025.
Summary Seagrasses are important contributors to environmental nutrient cycling in marine ecosystems and can improve water quality by absorbing excess nitrogen (N). However, these ecosystems are vulnerable to human‐mediated pressures, including marine heatwaves (MHWs), particularly those of longer duration. We performed an experiment simulating a 30‐d,

Seed–Habitat Thermal Interactions Contribute to the Mosaic Distribution Patterns of Invasive Chromolaena odorata and Ageratina adenophora in South Yunnan, China 种子与生境之间的热相互作用促成飞机草和紫茎泽兰在中国云南南部的镶嵌式分布

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 85-94, March 2025.
Chromolaena odorata and Ageratina adenophora are invasive species in Southern Yunnan, China; they have very differing, yet overlapping, climate niches. Both invaders produce a large number of small pappus‐bearing achenes every year. They grow in, and their seeds are dispersed to, both suitable and marginal habitats.

A higher tissue fraction of parenchyma in secondary xylem supports growth recovery of angiosperm trees after drought

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 12, Page 2709-2719, December 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Resilience to drought represents an important focus for trees during climate change, with the aim of predicting the resistance and recovery of species worldwide. Previous studies mainly linked tree growth resilience to plant functional traits that are related to ...

Multiple‐stressor effects on leaf litter decomposition in freshwater ecosystems: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page 1523-1536, July 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Recent years have witnessed a surge in research on the effects of multiple stressors in freshwater ecosystems. While studies have increased, the synthesis of their findings into a broader understanding of ecosystem‐level effects remains an ongoing endeavour. Leaf litter

Can local ecological knowledge establish conservation baselines for the Critically Endangered Blue‐crowned Laughingthrush?

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 1262-1276, June 2024.
Abstract Designing conservation interventions for rare species can be hindered by a lack of relevant data. Local ecological knowledge (LEK) has potential to provide rapidly collected, cost‐effective data across large spatio‐temporal scales, but has rarely been used as a source of conservation‐relevant information for the Asian Songbird Crisis. The Blue‐

Identifying global conservation priorities for terrestrial vertebrates based on multiple dimensions of biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract The Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity calls for an expansion of the current protected areas (PAs) to cover at least 30% of global land and water areas by 2030 (i.e., the 30×30 target). Efficient spatial planning for PA expansion is an urgent need for global conservation practice. A spatial

Effects of nutrient pulses on exotic species shift from positive to neutral with decreasing water availability

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Temporal fluctuation in nutrient availability generally promotes the growth of exotic plant species and has been recognized as an important driver of exotic plant invasions. However, little is known about how the impact of fluctuating nutrients on exotic species is dependent on the availability of other resources, although most ecosystems are ...

水杨酸对水分胁迫下小麦根交替途径的影响

open access: yes四川大学学报. 自然科学版, 2009
研究了水杨酸(SA)处理对水分胁迫下小麦抗氰交替途径容量(V(alt)、实际运行活性(ρV(alt))与交替氧化酶 AOX 表达量的影响.结果表明:未经 SA 处理的小麦在胁迫与非胁迫的条件下均存在抗氰呼吸,水分胁迫可使小麦呼吸活性及基因转录水平下降.水杨酸可以缓解水分胁迫的影响,增加抗氰交替途径活性,使 Valt与ρValt显著提高,SA 对小麦氰呼吸起到了诱导作用.Western 杂交分析结果显示,小麦在不同处理下 Valt与ρValt的差异与 AOX 蛋白水平的变化相关,水杨酸(SA)处理时 ...

不同土壤水分条件下侧柏幼苗的生理活动及氮素分配策略

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2020
以北京地区3年生侧柏幼树为研究对象,采用温室内盆栽试验,设置5个不同土壤含水量水平,采用15N同位素自然丰度法研究不同水分条件下侧柏幼苗的生理活动、生物量分配及氮素吸收和分配情况。结果表明:(1)在水分胁迫下,侧柏单株净光合速率、呼吸速率、蒸腾速率均表现为最低值,随着干旱胁迫解除,含水量增加到正常值,各指标分别增加为原来的4.86,3.74,7.29倍,叶片含水量和叶面积分别增加了24.37%,23.69%;之后当土壤含水量超过正常值时,随着土壤水分含量的进一步增加,各指标略有下降。(2)在水分胁迫下 ...

台湾桤木种源对水分胁迫的光合响应及其抗旱性

open access: yesShuitu Baochi Xuebao, 2004
台湾桤木(Alnus formosana)原产台湾,是台湾地区重要的先锋造林树种,以及优良的水土保持和水源涵养树种.本文采用PEG6000渗透胁迫处理,研究了4种台湾桤木种源和2种四川桤木种源苗木光合作用对水分胁迫的反应,结果表明(1)随着水分胁迫程度的增加,叶片相对含水量明显下降,各种源叶片相对含水量下降程度为AC1>AC2>AF1>AF4>AF3>AF2;(2)与对照相比,在轻度(PEG10%)水分胁迫下,台湾桤木种源叶绿素含量呈上升趋势;而四川桤木种源叶片在整个水分胁迫过程中,叶绿素含量呈下降趋势;
