Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Context‐dependent decision‐making in seed sourcing for restoration: reply to Beck et al. (2025)
Determining the best seed sources for restoration can be a challenge for practitioners, especially under climate change. The number of variables and the spectrum of potential solutions can be daunting. No singular seed sourcing strategy, “local‐is‐best” or otherwise, is appropriate for all species and restoration efforts.

Subcellular Distribution of Cadmium in Mining Ecotype Sedum alfredii
The mining ecotype Sedum alfredii Hance could tolerate and grow normally in a nutritive solution containing cadmium (Cd) as high as 400 µmol/L. Under such a high Cd concentration, the subcel-lular accumulation of Cd in root, stem and leaf of this plant ...

First assessment of brush‐harvested native seed mixes in southern Brazilian grasslands
Abstract Introduction The restoration of grassland ecosystems in southern Brazil remains limited by the absence of a structured supply chain for native seeds and seedlings. Objectives Here, we present the first evaluation in Brazil of mechanized, multi‐species seed harvesting from native grassland remnants using a brush harvester.

Leaf economics and tissue turnover dynamics in four perennial C4 grasses
Abstract Warm‐season perennial grasses are important components of pasture systems in the United States, yet their functional characteristics and relationships with productive attributes remain poorly understood. This study evaluated tissue flow dynamics and leaf economic traits in four C4 forage grasses: eastern gamagrass (Tripsacum dactyloides (L.) L.

Screening bermudagrass genotypes for improved forage production
Abstract Cynodon is a diverse genus of great economic importance to the southeastern United States. However, the bermudagrass stem maggot (BSM; Atherigona reversura Villeneuve) is threatening bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) throughout the region. Long‐term solutions require the development and release of BSM‐tolerant bermudagrass genotypes.

Three interventions aimed at restoring perennial ryegrass populations and the herbage production of run‐out dairy pastures based on mid‐season or late‐season heading perennial ryegrass cultivars were compared with a control (CON) treatment over 3 years in Waikato. The treatments were: short deferral of grazing (47–48 days) in spring (SD); long deferral
