Melanism in salamanders: effects of insularity, sex and size on dorsal colouration in Salamandra salamandra

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...

Temporal Dynamics of Auxins and Strigolactones in the Root Emergence Zone of Chestnut Cuttings During Adventitious Root Formation

open access: yesHorticulturae
Adventitious root (AR) formation is essential for the vegetative propagation of woody plants, yet recalcitrant species within Castanea spp. exhibit strong genotype-dependent differences in rooting ability.

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2778-2813, June 2026.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Endophytic and ectomycorrhizal, an overlooked dual ecological niche? Insights from natural environments and Russula species

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3946-3960, June 2026.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) are key components of temperate ecosystems, and recent studies suggest that they can also inhabit non‐EcM plant roots as endophytes. We aimed to (1) provide new evidence of EcMF colonization of non‐EcM hosts, (2) offer direct microscopic confirmation of such endophytism and (3) assess factors influencing ...

Does water vole diet meet the prerequisites of the “plant hypothesis” for explaining population cycles?

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Rodent population cycles are observed in highly seasonal environments. As most rodents are herbivorous, the availability and the quality of their food resources vary greatly across seasons. Furthermore, it is well documented that herbivore densities have a measurable effect on vegetation and, conversely, that vegetation dynamics can influence ...
