ASSESSMENT OF MAJOR HERBACEOUS FORAGE SPECIES FOR THEIR FEED QUALITY: THE CASE OF NORTH SHEWA ZONE OF OROMIA REGIONAL STATE, ETHIOPIA

Natural Resources and Sustainable Development
The study was aim to identify major indigenous herbaceous forage species for their nutritional values from Degem and Wachale districts, used to compare dry and wet seasons forage quality. A total of 180 plots were used to collect forage samples.

A pipeline to compile expert‐verified datasets of digitised herbarium specimens for automated plant identification to accelerate taxonomy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding and protecting plant life is essential for tackling the twin challenges of biodiversity loss and climate change. To support this, we have developed a new digital approach that helps identify plant species more quickly and accurately.

Functional traits predict changes in floral phenology under climate change in a highly diverse Mediterranean community

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants are shifting their flowering phenology in response to climate change, but trends differ between species and communities. Functional traits can largely explain how different species respond to climate change by shifting their phenology, and can therefore help ...

To converge or diverge? Phenological shifts driven by plant genome size and functional traits under nitrogen deposition and mowing

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Linkages between genome size (GS) and phenology underscore the diversification of functional traits, which are indicative of life‐history and resource acquisition strategies.

Living by the lake: Plant food diversity in a prehistoric lake‐dwelling community in the Republic of North Macedonia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...

Fluctuating asymmetry in spider‐hunting wasps as a possible indicator of stress in Brazilian Atlantic Forest landscapes Assimetria flutuante em vespas caçadoras de aranhas como possível indicador de estresse em paisagens da Mata Atlântica brasileira

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural cover was positively associated with fluctuating asymmetry in Trypoxylon opacum, suggesting a possible increase in developmental instability in intensively managed landscapes. Wing size was positively related to forest cover and negatively related to agricultural cover, indicating that forested landscapes may promote larger body size ...
