A hydroalcoholic extract from the renewable periderm of Pinus pinea is characterized through integrated phytochemical, biological and elemental analyses. The extract exhibits a phenolic‐rich composition, significant antioxidant activity and preliminary protection against oxidative stress in SH‐SY5Y cells, while elemental profiling indicates low levels ...

Effects of Simulated Herbivory on the Thermal Resilience of Two Temperate Seagrass Species
This study investigates how reduced leaf size via simulated herbivory influences the thermal performance of temperate seagrasses. Simulated herbivory enhanced physiological performance and resilience under elevated temperatures in Posidonia australis, but not in Heterozostera tasmanica.

From the Ground Up: Can Root Traits Help Understand Invasion Dynamics?
Although root traits are known to influence invasion success, few studies have examined how invader roots differ from those of native plants. In this mini‐review, we present the Root Trait–Environment Invasion (RTEI) framework, which outlines hypotheses for how invader root traits differ from native species across disturbance regimes and nutrient ...

Abstract Resource subsidies, or the flow of energy across ecosystem boundaries, can influence community structure and function and act as important nutrient sources to less productive ecosystems, particularly in marine and coastal zones. Coastal dunes, connected to the nearshore through sandy beaches, likely depend on the delivery of marine subsidies ...

Cattle and bison grazing decreases monarch egg and larval abundance in the Central United States
Abstract Monarch butterflies have experienced massive population declines and have been proposed to be listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. Milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) are the sole host plant for monarch larvae, and milkweed abundance has dramatically declined in the past 25 years due to increased usage of herbicides and the ...
