Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Identification of a Disease on Cocoa Caused by Fusariumin Sulawesi [PDF]

, 2013
A disease presumed to be caused by Fusarium was observed in cocoa open fields with few or without shade trees. Within the population of cocoa trees in the field, some trees had died, some had yellowing leaves and dieback, and the others were apparently ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Classification of decay resistance against white and brown rot fungi within the cultivated Calamus manan stems [PDF]

, 2013
The decay resistance classes of cultivated Calamus manan aged 10 and 13 years old were investigated. One stem of each age was divided into five different portions namely basal (1.5 metre), upper basal (5.5 metre), middle (13.5 metre), upper middle (17.5 ...

Mycorrhizal specificity of fully mycoheterotrophic Yoania in Taiwan and China and novel natural abundance stable isotope patterns

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Three species of the mycoheterotrophic orchid genus Yoania found in Taiwan and China are associated with a single taxonomic unit of white‐rot fungus from the genus Physisporinus and exhibit a stable isotope pattern distinct from other fully mycoheterotrophic (FMH) orchids associated with wood‐decaying fungi.

Plant and soil biodiversity reveals past and potential future states of naturally regenerating and planted native forests

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Forest restoration can be achieved by promoting natural regeneration or planting tree seedlings, but the relative benefits of these widely used approaches are questioned. Soil communities may influence restoration outcomes but are usually ignored by monitoring schemes.

Effects of White and Brown Rot Decay on Changes of Wood Ultrastructure

BioResources, 2014
Fungal decay results in gradual decomposition of compounds of wood cell walls. Mass loss of wood is usually applied to characterize the decay. However, mechanisms of brown and white rot decay are significantly different, resulting in different ...

Fungal ecological strategies reflected in gene transcription - a case study of two litter decomposers. [PDF]

, 2019
Microbial communities interplay with their environment through their functional traits that can be a response or an effect on the environment. Here, we explore how a functional trait-the decomposition of organic matter, can be addressed based on genetic ...
