Biomass production of tropical trees across space and time: The shifting roles of diameter growth and wood density

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 11, Page 3141-3158, November 2025.
Diameter growth is an important and good indicator of forest carbon production. However, size‐related changes in wood density, which are usually neglected, are critical for accurate short‐ and long‐term carbon assessments, especially in tropical humid sites.

Responses of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants to iron deficiency in the root zone [PDF]

, 2019
Iron deficiency induces a yellowing in the aerial part of plants, known as iron chlorosis, and reduces the growth, yield, and quality of the fruits. Understanding plant response to iron deficiency is essential for agronomic management. This study decoded

Environmental Requirements for Germination and Appressorium Formation of Ascospores and Conidia of Phyllosticta citricarpa, the Causal Agent of Citrus Black Spot

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 7, Page 2108-2120, September 2025.
Cardinal temperatures for both Phyllosticta citricarpa spore germination were estimated as ~10ºC (minimum) and ~40ºC (maximum), and the optimum temperatures were ~30ºC for ascospores and ~24ºC for conidia. ABSTRACT Phyllosticta citricarpa produces ascospores and conidia that infect citrus tissues and cause citrus black spot (CBS).

Vertebrate diversity and biomass along a recovery gradient in a lowland tropical forest

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 1, January 2025.
Deforestation of tropical forests has resulted in large areas of secondary forests with the potential for biodiversity to re‐establish to levels usually found in old‐growth forests. This study shows that diversity and biomass of mammals and birds in regenerating forests can recover to old‐growth levels within a relatively short time.

Common ant species dominate morphospace: unraveling the morphological diversity in the Brazilian Amazon Basin

Ecography, Volume 2024, Issue 11, November 2024.
Rare plant and vertebrate species have been documented to contribute disproportionately to the total morphological structure of species assemblages. These species often possess morphologically extreme traits and occupy the boundaries of morphological space.

The combination of a microbial and a non‐microbial biostimulant increases yield in lettuce (Lactuca sativa) under salt stress conditions by up‐regulating cytokinin biosynthesis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 10, Page 2140-2157, October 2024.
The combination of a microbial and a non‐microbial biostimulant increased yield of lettuce under salt stress. Application of the non‐microbial biostimulant triggered an abscisic acid‐dependent response and, when applied with the microbial biostimulant, potentiated the responses triggered by the microbial biostimulant and elicited a cytokinin‐dependent ...

Using fusion effects to decrease uncertainty in distance sampling models when collating data from different surveys

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 40, Issue 3, July 2024.
Abstract Estimates of population abundance are required to study the impacts of human activities on populations and assess their conservation status. Despite considerable effort to improve data collection, uncertainty around estimates of cetacean densities can remain large.

Pest risk assessment of African Leucinodes species for the European Union

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2024.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a quantitative risk assessment for the EU of African Leucinodes species (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), which are fruit and shoot borers, especially of eggplant type fruit.
