Grow With the Flow? Impact of Experimental Floods on Riparian Vegetation in an Alpine River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 162-175, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Experimental floods have been proposed as a measure to mitigate effects of river flow regulation, primarily vegetation encroachment, streambed colmation, and loss of bed and channel mobility. In this study, we investigated the short‐ and long‐term biogeomorphic effects of an experimental flood programme conducted in the Spöl River (Swiss Alps)

Winter diet of Korean long‐tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus: natural foraging and post‐wildfire supplementary feeding revealed by DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Understanding the winter diets of endangered ungulates is critical for developing effective conservation strategies in temperate ecosystems, where seasonal fluctuations significantly affect food availability. The long‐tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus, an herbivorous ungulate listed as a category I ‘Endangered species' (EN) under the Korean Wildlife ...

Assessment of genetic diversity in natural European hophornbeam (Ostrya carpinifolia Scop.) populations in Turkey

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2016
Genetic diversity is a crucial component for plant survivability and fitness in terms of adaptation, genetic stability and variability. In this study, a total of 160 genotypes were investigated using 12 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers to ...

Leaf nitrogen and wood density, but not root traits, explain the growth and survival of temperate tree species

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
The relative importance of different root traits for tree growth and survival may be contingent on the soil environment, so that species' demographic strategies cannot be confidently inferred from below‐ground traits without biotic or abiotic environmental context.

Characterization of a Casuarina glauca Nodule-Specific Subtilisin-like Protease Gene, a Homolog of Alnus glutinosa ag12

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
In search of plant genes expressed during early interactions between Casuarina glauca and Frankia, we have isolated and characterized a C. glauca gene that has strong homology to subtilisin-like protease gene families of several plants including the ...

Attainment of reproductive competence, phase transition, and quantification of juvenility in mutant genetic screens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Plant development between seedling emergence and flowering is characterized by a series of successive qualitative phases: (1) a post embryonic photoperiodinsensitive phase, during which plants are insensitive to photoperiod; (2) a photoperiod ...

Measurement of Ungulate Palatability and Browsing Pressure on Japanese Flora

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Estimation of palatability and browsing pressure are key techniques for ecosystem management. We compared four methods to estimate palatability based on browsing scar survey and proposed the reference palatability values for the Japanese flora as plant ecological trait.
