Species‐level controls of foliar methane and nitrous oxide fluxes: roles of traits and microbes in temperate trees

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Species‐level variation in temperate tree foliar greenhouse gas exchange, showing consistent foliar CH4 uptake, N2O emission, stronger CH4 uptake in fall leaves, and contrasting methanotroph communities between the high‐CH4‐oxidizing species Tilia americana and the low‐CH4‐oxidizing species Prunus virginiana. Summary The contribution of tree foliage to

Effects of Pistacia lentiscus Leaf‐Twig and Resin (Mastic) Oils on Salivary Flow in Healthy Individuals

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Pistacia lentiscus L. tree is known for its aromatic mastic gum containing terpenes α‐pinene and β‐myrcene, and has been applied as a traditional remedy in oral care for centuries. Previously, intranasal exposure to mastic resin volatiles increased salivary flow in healthy and dry‐mouth individuals. This study assessed the biological

Effects of Temperature Peaks and Water Stress on Tropical Seed Germination: Experimental Trials With Species From Brazil's Northeastern Coastal Zone

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the effects of high temperatures and water deficit on germination provides valuable insights into seed stress tolerance, guiding the use of native seeds in ecological restoration. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of (1) temperature peaks and (2) water stress treatments and post‐stress recovery on the germination of some ...

Selecting for Seed Size Diversity Can Support a Variety of Plant Colonization Strategies in Caatinga Restoration

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Seed traits offer valuable insights into colonization strategies under climatic unpredictability. In seasonally dry tropical forests, such traits help explain species adaptations to water availability, which is critical for effective restoration.

Zagros Restoration: Smart Choices for Oak Forests

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10284-10307, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Widespread forest degradation across the northern Zagros region of Iran driven by both human activity and natural processes has created an urgent need for targeted afforestation and forest enrichment strategies. Hence, the aim of this study was identifying the most suitable native tree and shrub species for restoring degraded forest areas in ...
