Element accumulation capacity of Vaccinium myrtillus from Montenegro: Comparison of element contents in water and ethanol extracts of bilberry plant parts [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2019 Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L., Ericaceae) is a rich source of different mineral elements that are important as essential trace elements, or that can be potentially toxic, depending on their concentration.

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.This graphical abstract compares four fermentation strategies for D. nobile rice wine: simultaneous inoculation without D. nobile (SW), simultaneous inoculation with D. nobile (DnSW), sequential inoculation without D. nobile (WS), and sequential inoculation with D. nobile (DnWS). Simultaneous inoculation (SW/DnSW) enhanced volatile compound content (up

Effects of Biochar and Nitrogen‐Enriched Biochar on Tree Growth in Scots Pine Stands
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.Tree growth in middle‐aged Scots pine stands was unaffected by biochar alone, while nitrogen‐enriched biochar and conventional nitrogen fertilization resulted in comparable positive growth responses. ABSTRACT Biochar, a carbon‐rich product of pyrolysis, is increasingly considered for soil amendment and climate change mitigation due to its potential to ...

Both density‐ and frequency‐dependent effects determine plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.We tested the hypothesis that both density‐ and frequency‐dependent interactions play important roles in determining plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem at several levels of available nitrogen. Plant growth was measured using the pin‐point method in a five‐block experiment with four nitrogen levels.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Niche partitioning is important for the coexistence of closely related species, allowing species to reduce overlap in resource use despite shared ecological requirements. In alpine environments, harsh climatic conditions and low habitat complexity constrain opportunities for ecological segregation, making seasonal resource fluctuation especially ...

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.We combined field research and satellite data to learn more about wildfire regimes in England and Wales. Our results show significant variation in fire size, severity, and timing between areas dominated by different vegetation types. Abstract Wildfires are an increasing concern worldwide, as climate change extends periods with the necessary conditions ...
