Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Grassy wetlands of the Cerrado provide key ecosystem services but remain largely overlooked and are rapidly disappearing, threatened by land use change and climate‐driven changes in hydrological cycles. As restoration initiatives are urgent, reference ecosystems and robust indicators are essential to guide conservation and ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Invasions by Pinus represent major challenges for conservation and ecological restoration, especially in open ecosystems of tropical South America, such as the Brazilian neotropical savanna (Cerrado). Objective We evaluated whether the clear‐cutting and manual removal of Pinus caribaea reduce the impacts of invasion on woody plant

The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 2053-2076, August 2026.ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 7951-7960, August 2026.Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...

The loss of an Indigenous‐maintained She‐Oak woodland in southeast Australia
Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.A 2600‐year multi‐proxy palaeoecological record (pollen, charcoal, and sediment) from Balfour Swamp, east Gippsland, reveals the persistence of an open, grassy She‐Oak woodland maintained by GunaiKurnai. This vegetation community, resilient to climatic variability and fire, was lost following the disruption of Aboriginal land management and replaced by

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.We evaluated the accuracy of the e‐Surveyor mobile application, which includes automated identification for plant species and habitat prediction. We compared species lists collected by citizen scientists using the application in the field with data recorded by expert botanists. Most citizen scientists were able to accurately identify almost half of the

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.In this study, we first sequenced and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of Aster lautureanus and conducted comprehensive analyses of genome structure, codon usage, repeat sequences, phylogeny, and divergence time. ABSTRACT The genus Aster represents an important group of flowering plants with complex evolutionary relationships, yet genomic ...
