Reconstructing Cenozoic grasslands in North America and western Eurasia: evidence for cold‐season grasses from 3D phytolith morphology

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Pie charts illustrate the composition of fossil grass silica short‐cell phytolith (GSSCP) assemblages at investigated fossil sites in the United States and Türkiye and representative 3D meshes of classified phytoliths. Summary Pooideae, the largest grass subfamily, radiated in the Northern Hemisphere from the Paleocene onward and today dominates cold ...

Navigating through complexity: a roadmap to disentangle multi‐level drivers of intraspecific seed‐trait variability and prioritise research efforts

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Examples of hierarchical drivers of intraspecific variation in seed traits. Summary Seed traits underpin plant regeneration and are central to predicting species' responses to environmental change, yet their intraspecific variability remains poorly integrated into trait‐based frameworks.

Divergent structure–function coordination shapes leaf thermal tolerance in Mediterranean tree species

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Tcrit (critical temperature) may reflect early, adaptive photoprotective downregulation of PSII in Quercus ilex, whereas in Acer campestre and Fraxinus ornus, it may more closely correspond to the onset of thermal PSII vulnerability. Abstract Increasing temperatures impair photosynthetic apparatus by damaging photosystem II (PSII) efficiency.

Performance of planted native seedlings in felled strips within Pinus radiata plantation forest

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Exotic plantations could facilitate native forest restoration through a managed transition utilizing partial harvest, poisoning, or natural senescence of the plantation. Objectives To explore canopy gap creation and herbivore exclusion in a Pinus radiata plantation on planted seedlings of three native tree species.
