Different Dispersal Rates and Declining Climate Suitability Shape Future Vegetation Compositions Across the Arctic

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim We investigate how species‐specific dispersal abilities might influence future Arctic plant distributions and large‐scale dynamics at the boreal forest–tundra boundary until 2100. Location Circumpolar terrestrial Arctic (boreal forest, taiga and tundra). Taxon 1550 plant species.

Seed Traits and Salt Tolerance Contribute to the Range Expansion of Plantago coronopus Along Winter‐Salted Roads in Central Europe

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
Our aim was to investigate the role of seed dimorphism and seed traits in the successful roadside spread of P. coronopus, and to compare its salt tolerance to other species of the Plantago genus native to Central Europe. Our results show that winter‐salted roadsides are suitable habitats for P. coronopus and other salt‐tolerant Plantago species.

Analysis of the irrigated crop flora from the South West of Castilla y León

open access: yesAnales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2000
A study of the flora of irrigated crops in two Spanish provinces (Salamanca and Zamora, SW Castilla y León) has been carried out. After careful analysis of a catalogue comprising more than 344 taxa, we have found that 237 of them (68,9 %) belong to 8 ...

Many Plant Species in Europe Have Limited Capacity to Track Climate Change

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim No or unlimited dispersal capacities of species are commonly assumed in species distribution models (SDMs) used to assess potential impacts of climate change on biodiversity. However, these assumptions may lead to overly pessimistic or optimistic predictions.

Biological spectrum and dispersal syndromes in an area of the semi-arid region of north-eastern Brazil

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2015
The biological spectrum and diaspores dispersal syndromes of the species recorded in a stretch of vegetation in a semi-arid region within the Cariri Environment Protection Area, Boa Vista, Paraíba State (northeast) Brazil, are described. Collections were

Spatial pattern analysis and demography of two tropical trees in the Brazilian Caatinga

open access: yesPesquisa Florestal Brasileira, 2014
Aspidosperma pyrifolium (Apocynaceae) and Caesalpinia pyramidalis (Fabaceae) share the same habitat in the Brazilian Caatinga domain. In this paper, we investigate the intra and inter-species interactions between these two plants using spatial pattern ...

Hiding in plain sight: Reinvasion risk from retained seed after dispersal events in introduced conifers

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People
Non-native conifers are the most successful tree-weeds in the Southern Hemisphere, reproducing annually through seed-bearing cones. Rather than shedding cones, some conifer species retain cones on the tree indefinitely (e.g.

Floristic analysis and dispersal syndromes of woody species of the Serra de Maracaju, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
This paper presents a floristic survey of the wood component of cerrado s.s. (eastern face) and gallery forest (western face) areas carried out in the southern part of the Serra de Maracaju. The dispersal syndromes and floristic relations of this portion

On the reproductive ecology of Premna latifolia L. and Premna tomentosa Willd. (Lamiaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2018
Premna latifolia and Premna tomentosa shed their foliage during winter but produce foliage at different periods to avoid competition for nutrients, P. latifolia during the dry season while P. tomentosa during the wet season.
