Reunion overseas: introduced wild boars and cultivated orange trees interact in the Brazilian Atlantic forest [PDF]

, 2019
Little is known concerning novel interactions between species that typically interact in their native range but, as a consequence of human activity, are also interacting out of their original distribution under new ecological conditions.

Forest structure and connectivity drive the functional recovery of seed rain

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
Local forest structure and landscape‐scale connectivity shape distinct but complementary pathways of the functional recovery of seed rain in tropical forests. Structural complexity promotes functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions locally, while connectivity facilitates the arrival of late‐successional seeds from external sources.

Fruit function beyond dispersal: effect of fruit decomposition on the plant microbiome assembly

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1442-1455, February 2026.
Summary The evolutionary role of fruits has primarily been linked to seed dispersal. However, their influence on the soil and plant microbiomes subsequent to their decomposition has received no attention. We hypothesized that fruit decomposition alters the soil microbiome, and consequently the plant microbiome and performance.

Importancia de las interacciones semilla-mamífero para Heteroflorum (Leguminosae), un género monoespecífico endémico de México

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2018
Se identificaron algunas interacciones entre los frutos/semillas de Heteroflorum sclerocarpum (Leguminosae) y los mamíferos terrestres de un bosque tropical caducifolio de México. Usando cámaras trampa se detectaron los mamíferos que consumen los frutos

Posibles dispersores de Psidium guajava en la Isla San Cristobal, Galapagos - Ecuador [PDF]

, 2013
The guava tree, Psidium guajava, is considered an invasive species in the Galapagos Islands. This species was introduced in 1869 and it is estimated that it has invaded more than 40.000 ha, including most of the highlands of San Cristobal and some areas ...

Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1124-1144, February 2026.
Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

Isopod feces–mediated shifts in germination timing enhance seedling establishment

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1909-1919, February 2026.
Summary Seedlings are particularly vulnerable to herbivory because their defenses are underdeveloped and their capacity to tolerate damage is limited. However, how seedlings cope with such threats remains poorly understood. Animal feces may provide important chemical cues that influence plant responses to herbivory.
