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

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Stockpiled bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) can potentially provide nutritious forage and extend the grazing season in the upper southeastern US Coastal Plain. This multi‐location 1‐year study evaluated the effects of four N fertilizer rates (from 0 to 135 kg ha−1) and four harvest dates (from October to January) on leaf‐to‐stem ...

Journal of Cotton ResearchBackground Thidiazuron (TDZ) is a widely used chemical defoliant in commercial cotton production and is often combined with the herbicide Diuron to form the commercial defoliant mixture known as TDZ·Diuron (T·D, 540 g·L-1 suspension).

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.*Hyphantria cunea* is a highly invasive forest pest in China, and its parasitoid *Chouioia cunea* is widely used for biological control, though climate change may alter their spatial matching. Using ensemble species distribution models under multiple SSP scenarios, we found that suitable habitats for both species are projected to expand, with ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Plantations are the spearhead of adaptive silviculture, yet we do not understand how damage from abiotic and biotic agents relates to seedlings’ survival. In this study, we used multi‐state models, which originate from the medical field, to evaluate the relation between ‘damage history’, silvicultural treatments, and planted tree survival.

Overexploitation can counteract top‐down control and the paradox of enrichment in simple food chains
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Because of its high abundance or its high feeding intensity, a consumer can overexploit its resource by consuming it on a shorter timescale than resource regeneration. While this short‐term overexploitation is widespread in nature, its general implications for biotic control patterns and ecosystem stability are not clear.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Spatial synchrony of population fluctuations has major consequences for the impacts of forest insect pest outbreaks at regional scales. We tested the predictions that the strength and drivers of this synchrony would differ among species according to their dispersal abilities and feeding guilds.
