Soil Physical Properties in Estimating the CO2 Emissions in Drained Peatland Forests

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Peatland drainage aims at enhancing tree growth by improving soil aeration and nutrient availability through the lowering of water table, but it also accelerates peat decomposition and increases CO2 emissions. CO2 emission estimates of drained peatlands are typically based on surface‐level measurements, whereas studies on peat decomposition ...

Tree species diversity drives above‐ground carbon sequestration through light‐related trait shifts

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1656-1675, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Functional traits can vary in response to tree species mixing, which in turn might influence biomass production and, consequently, carbon (C) sequestration in diverse forests.

Red‐listed species under threat: Unexpectedly high deadwood thresholds for their presence in managed boreal forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
We show that deadwood volume is a reliable, taxon‐specific indicator of the presence of red‐listed bryophytes and fungi but not lichens. By explicitly focusing on threatened species and deriving statistically defined thresholds from managed boreal forests, our study provides empirical benchmarks that go beyond commonly used biodiversity indicators. The

Benthic Biodiversity in Subarctic Stream Networks: Headwaters as Upholders of Variation Through Space and Time

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Headwaters often contribute disproportionately to network‐scale benthic biodiversity as differences in community composition between separate headwater streams (β‐diversity) can be high although local (α) diversity may be low. Most research on stream β‐diversity has adopted a spatial perspective, whereas temporal β‐diversity remains largely ...

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 270-283, June 2026.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

Understanding Ancient Moose Populations in the Southern Rocky Mountains

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Moose (Alces alces) are an iconic symbol of contemporary Rocky Mountain ecosystems, and their growing abundance in Colorado and other portions of the Southern Rockies has inspired debate around their regional prehistory prior to their 20th century translocation. The Early Holocene biogeography of moose in North America is poorly characterised,

Contrasting Genomic Signatures of Climate Adaptation and Adaptive Plasticity Across the Distribution Ranges of Sessile Oak and European Beech

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The persistence of organisms in changing climates depends on both phenotypic plasticity and adaptation. However, despite extensive research, it remains largely unclear how forest trees will genetically adapt or phenotypically acclimate to future climates.
