Neofusicoccum luteum as a pathogen on Tejocote (Crataegus mexicana)
Tejocote (Crataegus mexicana), a small pome crab-apple-like fruit, is becoming economically important in California with increasing production, so consideration of diseases that hinder the yield is important.

Honeylocust Twig-gall Midge (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Michigan [PDF]
Emergence and oviposition data were gathered for Neolasioptera brevis, a recently described pest of honeylocust. In 1984 the insects first emerged on 21 May and first oviposited on 4 June; in 1985 they first emerged on 28 April and first oviposited ...

Scenarios and strategies for future‐proofing ecosystem management under climatic novelty
Abstract Climate change is driving unprecedented declines in dominant, habitat‐forming foundation species across marine and terrestrial ecosystems globally. As climatic novelty becomes the norm, ecosystem reassembly will become increasingly common. Predicting and understanding these transitions, and their implications for future ecosystem functioning ...

Variations in water use by a mature mangrove of Avicennia germinans, French Guiana [PDF]
In the tropical intertidal zones, little is known on water uptake by mangroves. Transpiration rates are generally measured at leaf level, but few studies exist on water use at tree or stand levels.

Botryosphaeria dieback of grapevine
Grapevine is one of the most important culture grown in the world. It is attacked by a large number of phytopathogenic fungi, of which species of the family Botryosphaeriaceae pose one of the most significant threats. Symptoms occur in the form of necrotic lesions, rot of fruits and decline of branches.

Slow Dieback of Grapevine: Association of Phialophora parasitica with Slow Dieback of Grapevines
Phialophora parasitica was consistently isolated from vines showing symptoms of slow dieback and decline. Pathogenicity tests were conducted on in vitro plantlets, grafted plants in a glasshouse and on graft unions. The fungus caused discolouration of wood as well as extensive plugging of xylem tissue.

Abstract Legally protecting areas of habitat is a common action for the conservation of threatened species and communities. However, protection on public land alone is inadequate to conserve many species and ecosystems. The inclusion of privately protected areas within the protected area network provides one mechanism to address this shortfall.

Climate change at the ecosystem scale: a 50-year record in New Hampshire [PDF]
Observing the full range of climate change impacts at the local scale is difficult. Predicted rates of change are often small relative to interannual variability, and few locations have sufficiently comprehensive long-term records of environmental ...

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...
