Neutral interactions among non‐native plants are common

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Global distribution of studies and overall effect of co‐invasion for all metrics of non‐native plant performance combined. Summary Globalization has accelerated the establishment of non‐native plant species, increasing the prevalence of multispecies co‐invasions; yet interactions among co‐invaders remain poorly understood.

Effects of Long‐Term Thinning on Soil Nematode Communities in Pinus taiwanensis Plantations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Moderate thinning (20% tree removal) optimizes soil resource distribution and boosts soil nematode community diversity and stability in Pinus taiwanensis plantations. Fungivorous and omnivorous‐predatory nematodes are enriched under moderate thinning, indicating trophic cascading effects in soil food webs. Moderate thinning drives nematode life‐history

What controls forest litter decomposition? A coordinated distributed teabag experiment across ten mountains

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Litter decomposition in mountainous forest ecosystems is an essential process that affects carbon and nutrient cycling. However, the contribution of litter decomposition to terrestrial ecosystems is difficult to estimate accurately because of the limited comparability of different studies and limited data on local microclimatic and non‐climatic factors.
