Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Towards Replacing the “Great Antifungal Wall”: Exploiting Synergies Between Sourdough Fermentation Protocols, Antifungal Plant Ingredients, and Contamination Control to Extend the Mold‐Free Shelf‐Life of Bread

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background “Clean label” antifungal ingredients and fermentation protocols are a promising strategy to meet shelf‐life requirements in the bread industry. Objectives This study evaluated the mold‐free shelf‐life of bread formulations incorporating sourdough combined with antifungal ingredients or additives.

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

Ecography, EarlyView.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.

Litter accumulation suppresses grass production but facilitates shrub expansion in a long‐term fenced grassland

Ecosphere
Shrub expansion is increasing in grasslands worldwide and has profound effects on biodiversity and ecosystem functions. Shrub expansion has primarily been explained by extrinsic factors such as climate change and human activities, yet the roles of ...

Environmental maternal effects mediate the resistance of maritime pine to biotic stress.

PLoS ONE, 2013
The resistance to abiotic stress is increasingly recognised as being impacted by maternal effects, given that environmental conditions experienced by parent (mother) trees affect stress tolerance in offspring.

Studying interspecific population synchrony: current status and future perspectives

Ecography, EarlyView.
Interspecific population synchrony, or co‐fluctuations in the population dynamics and demographic parameters of different species, is an important ecological phenomenon with major implications for the stability of communities and ecosystems. It is also central in the context of biodiversity loss, as interspecific synchrony can influence how ecological ...
