Orchids in the Open: Understanding Biodiversity Beyond Madagascar's Forests
ABSTRACT Aim Orchids make up 8% of Madagascar's vascular plant species richness and are typically associated with the island's forests. Yet most of the island is covered by open ecosystems, long dismissed as degraded. This perception has contributed to their neglect, limiting our understanding of species ecology and hindering conservation action in ...

Is Nocturnal Pollination Important for Crop Production? Experimental Evidence From Small Fruit Crops
ABSTRACT Insect‐mediated pollination is essential for crop production but is mainly studied considering diurnal pollinators only. Here, we use pollinator exclusion techniques to prevent either diurnal or nocturnal insect visits in small fruit crops: raspberry (Rubus idaeus), over 1 year, and red currant (Ribes rubrum) and black currant (Ribes nigrum ...

Mapping and Nutrient Profiles of Commercially Produced Complementary Foods in West Africa
ABSTRACT Commercially produced complementary foods (CPCFs) are increasingly preferred over home‐prepared foods but do not always comply with international recommendations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the compliance of CPCFs sold in West Africa with the World Health Organization (WHO) European Nutritional and Promotional Profile Model (NPPM ...

Beyond species means – the intraspecific contribution to global wood density variation
Summary Wood density is central for estimating vegetation carbon storage and a plant functional trait of great ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the global extent of wood density variation is unclear, especially at the intraspecific level. We assembled the most comprehensive wood density collection to date, including 109 626 records from
