The greenhouse diet : gypsy moth performance in a CO2-enriched world [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Rising atmospheric CO2 is regarded as the main driver of global warming (Crowley, 2000). While temperature changes directly affect plants and animals (Root et al., 2003; Parmesan, 2006), the effects of CO2 on herbivores are mediated through changes in ...

Phenological responses to climate change: advancing mating and calving in wild and semi‐captive Caspian red deer

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Species respond to climate change through phenological and spatial shifts. Herbivorous mammals, in particular, are vulnerable due to their direct dependence on seasonal vegetation and the potential misalignment between their reproductive cycles and shifting food availability.

Species identity and neighbor size surpass the impact of tree species diversity on productivity in experimental broad-leaved tree sapling assemblages under dry and moist conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Species diversity may increase the productivity of tree communities through complementarity and/or selection effects, but it is not well known how this relationship changes under water limitation.

Edges as ecological filters: Asymmetrical orientation‐specific arthropod activity across forest boundaries

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Weekend Overload: Day‐to‐Day Fluctuations of Outdoor Recreation Affect Wild Mammals' Space‐Use in a Popular Forest Reserve Near Florence, Italy

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an urban‐adjacent forested area, we investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of the wild mammal community in relation to day‐to‐day fluctuations of human presence occurring between working days and weekends. We deployed 52 camera‐traps systematically within an EU Natura 2000 area located within the metropolitan area of Florence, central ...

Seasonal variations of triterpene acid contents in Viscum album L. on typical host trees of Hyrcanian forests

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Viscum album L. (mistletoe) is a semiparasitic plant of the Santalaceae family. A valuable group of bioactive compounds in mistletoe are triterpene acids (TTAs), which possess anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties.

The tree‐parasitic fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola discovered on European chestnut and European hornbeam in Azerbaijan

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract The ascomycetous fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola is typically found in its asexual form on the European hornbeam, and its sexual state has only recently been discovered in deadwood of different Carpinus species in Japan. Recently, this fungus has been added to the EPPO Alert List due to its increasing incidence in the EPPO region and a ...
