Loss of resource‐conservative species affects plant phylogenetic and functional structure under long‐term snow addition

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
In a 16‐year Tibetan alpine meadow experiment, it was found that long‐term snow addition drove a shift in phylogenetic structure from random to overdispersed, due to the selective loss of resource‐conservative species phylogenetically close to residents. In contrast, functional structure remained consistently clustered, decoupling from the phylogenetic

Seed germination traits reveal naturalization potential: Global insights from temperate European herbaceous species

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study provides global‐scale evidence that the naturalization of European herbaceous species is related to specific germination traits acquired in the native range. The findings indicate that traits such as high germinability, low stratification requirements and responsiveness to scarification act as preadaptations that facilitate naturalization by

Inverse effects of soil moisture and litter quality on litter decomposition along a gradient from hyper‐arid to temperate climate

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
We hypothesized that litter decomposition (H1) and litter quality (H2) increase with increasing soil humidity, therefore litter from the wetter sites to have the highest litter quality and decompose fastest in each site, and fastest on the wet end of the gradient (H3).
