Functional traits explain growth response to successive hotter droughts across a wide set of common and future tree species in Europe

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Functional traits can explain significant tree growth reductions in response to the 2018–2020 drought for a wide set of 71 species including angiosperms and gymnosperms. Moreover, four distinct response types emerged: ‘Sufferer’, ‘Late sufferer’, ‘Recoverer’ and ‘Resister’, with gymnosperms predominately appearing as ‘Sufferer’ and ‘Late sufferer ...

Brazil Nut Flour as a Functional Ingredient: Effects on Texture, Composition and Sensory Profile of Reduced‐Sugar Gluten‐Free Cookies

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 185-196, March 2026.
Graphical abstract of the characterization of Brazil nut flour (BNF) and the impact of its addition on the nutritional and sensory properties of gluten‐free and low‐sugar cookies. The results show that BNF contributed to an improved nutritional quality of the cookies and enhanced overall product acceptance.

Investigation the Potential of Myopopone castanea Smith (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) as Bio-Agent of Oryctes rhinoceros (Coleoptera: Scarabaediae) in Oil Palm Plantations

Planta Tropika: Jurnal Agrosains
The Myopopone castanea Smith (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) is a predator of Oryctes rhinoceros Linn larvae, the main pest on oil palm plantations.  These predatory ants have potential as biological agents because they have similar niches to their prey.

Mapping the next forest generation reveals multiple regeneration gaps across German forests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our study provides the first nationwide, high‐resolution assessment of forest regeneration, offering a valuable baseline for monitoring forest development. The regeneration density and indicator maps enable forest managers and policymakers to identify regeneration deficits, prioritise adaptive management interventions and contribute to the development ...

Demographic and genetic factors affect the use of translocation for evolutionary rescue: A case study of American chestnut using simulation

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
These findings underscore the importance, complexity and flexibility of strategic translocations for ensuring the recovery of plant species limited by adaptive genetic diversity. Abstract For many plant species at risk, recovery depends on supplementing populations with adaptive genetic diversity through translocations but specific introduction ...
