Under drought stress, temperate forest understorey forbs prioritize biomass and leaf area retention, while graminoids enhance water‐use efficiency and photoprotection for survival. Abstract Drought stress can profoundly affect plant growth and physiological vitality, yet there is a notable scarcity of controlled drought experiments focused on ...

CAREx: context-aware read extension of paired-end sequencing data
Background Commonly used next generation sequencing machines typically produce large amounts of short reads of a few hundred base-pairs in length. However, many downstream applications would generally benefit from longer reads.

Abstract Introduction Peatlands are crucial for carbon storage and biodiversity but face increasing human degradation. The Moss Layer Transfer Technique (MLTT) has emerged as an effective method for restoring Sphagnum‐dominated vegetation in post‐extracted horticultural peatlands. Objectives This study evaluates vegetation restoration trajectories over

Rehabilitated richness: biodiversity recovery in Germany's gypsum post‐mining landscapes
In light of European and international mandates to protect natural areas in order to preserve biodiversity, all unused or abandoned areas become invaluable resources. We examined the botanical and structural diversity of post‐mining areas and surrounding landscapes across four major mining regions in Germany over a year‐long study.

Palaeoenvironment of a mesolithic peat bed from Austin Friars, Leicester [PDF]
A mesolithic peat bed, dated to 9920±100 bp (HAR-4260) (bp = radiocarbon years before the present calculated from A.D. 19S0 within + or - of 100 years in this case. Ed.) was recovered from Austin Friars, Leicester.

Restoration practitioners often seek to reestablish native plant communities through seed sowing; however, the effectiveness can vary across species and soil resource gradients. We asked how seeding density and first‐year, plot‐level soil moisture affect the abundances of 11 tallgrass prairie species 4 years after seeding and whether species‐level ...

In a 16‐year Tibetan alpine meadow experiment, it was found that long‐term snow addition drove a shift in phylogenetic structure from random to overdispersed, due to the selective loss of resource‐conservative species phylogenetically close to residents. In contrast, functional structure remained consistently clustered, decoupling from the phylogenetic

The identity of a neglected smut fungus, Cintractia disciformis, described from Carex hirtella in the Western Himalaya, India is reassessed. The species is excluded from Cintractia and is confirmed as a distinct species of Anthracoidea.
