Ecology, Floristic–Vegetational Features, and Future Perspectives of Spruce Forests Affected by Ips typographus: Insight from the Southern Alps

Plants
In recent years, many spruce (Picea abies (L.) H. Karst., Pinaceae) forests have been severely affected by bark beetle (Ips typographus L., Coleoptera: Curculionidae) outbreaks in the Southern Alps, but their ecological impacts remain poorly studied.

The Long Arc of Forest Land Dispossession and Degradation—Firm and State Actions on Sámi Lands in the Wood‐Based Commodity Frontier in Northern Sweden, 1673–1955

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a new way of obtaining deep explanations of environmental problems. We expose the production strategies, corporate strategies and state actions that have been taken by firms and state agencies to facilitate the geographical expansion of the wood‐based commodity frontier at the expense of reindeer pastoralists among the ...

The Form of Agency

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

ULISSE: Parameter-efficient adaptation of earth vision models to monitor forest disturbance in sentinel-2 time series

Ecological Informatics
Europe is one of the most forest-rich regions in the world, with forestry mainly based on the management of coniferous trees. However, the spruce forest ecosystem is vulnerable to several disturbance agents. In particular, bark beetle outbreaks have been

Dodder seedlings benefit from apoplastic nutrition by inducing SWEET15‐mediated unloading of sucrose from the host's phloem

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Cuscuta reflexa infection sites. Summary Cuscuta species are holoparasitic plants that penetrate host stems with haustoria, connect to the vasculature and exhaust water, nutrients and carbohydrates. Parasite seedlings possess only limited maternal reserves and the development of a vascular connection takes several days.

Harnessing Bulk‐Segregant Mapping to Identify Trait‐Associated Genes in the Allopolyploid Model Plant Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forward genetics has been instrumental in identifying genes underlying desirable traits, yet its application to polyploid plants, many of which are key agricultural crops, remains challenging due to their genomic complexity. Therefore, we developed BenthMap, a bulk segregant analysis platform for high‐throughput trait mapping and gene ...

Landscape conservation forecasting to evaluate ecological condition and wildlife habitat suitability in eastern Nevada U.S.A.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Cooperation among managers of protected areas and federal multiple use lands with private inholdings to increase restoration success and economies of scale creates ecological and regulatory complexity best studied with state‐and‐transition simulation models (STSM).

Overwintering of Eight Toothed Spruce Bark Beetle (Ips typographus) in Spruce Forests of North Velebit

Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2011
The eight toothed spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) plays an important role in spruce forests of Croatia, in the same way as it does in the rest of Europe wherever spruce grows. The size and intensity of its outbreaks is considerably lower though, and
