Ectomycorrhiza and ethylenediurea reduced the impact of high nitrogen and ozone stresses and increased the growth of Cedrus deodara [PDF]
Cedrus deodara is the central conifer plant affected by ozone and nitrogen pollutants among forest species worldwide. The growth of C. deodara depends upon the ectomycorrhizal (ECM) association, which is usually disturbed by these factors.

Non-Canonical, Somatic-Dependent Vertical Transmission of Wolbachia in an Aphid. [PDF]
We discovered a novel somatic‐associated Wolbachia transmission strategy in cedar bark aphids (Cinara cedri), contrasting with its typical maternal vertical transmission. This unique maternally retained somatic re‐acquisition strategy—a “piggybacking” on the highly efficient obligate symbiont transmission pathway—reveals diverse endosymbiont strategies

Floristic Diversity and Indicator Species Analysis Along Altitudinal Gradients of the Upper Indus Basin, Northern Pakistan. [PDF]
Altitudinal gradients substantially influence floristic diversity and indicator species. Three vegetation communities were identified, each shaped by specific environmental variables. Mantel test shows that altitude, Ca, K, Na are key drivers of species diversity and association.
