Current knowledge, status, and future for plant and fungal diversity in Great Britain and the UK Overseas Territories

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 2, Issue 5, Page 557-579, September 2020., 2020
We rely on plants and fungi for most aspects of our lives. Yet plants and fungi are under threat, and we risk losing species before we know their identity, roles, and potential uses. Knowing names, distributions and threats are first steps towards effective conservation action.

Including dynamics in the equation: Tree growth rates and host specificity of vascular epiphytes

Journal of Ecology, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 761-773, March 2020., 2020
Differences in tree growth rates have been a blind spot in studies on host specificity of vascular epiphytes. We compared epiphyte abundances on four tree species in a lowland moist forest. Host quality ranking depends hugely on whether tree size or age is used as a covariate.

Pest categorisation of Spodoptera eridania

EFSA Journal, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2020., 2020
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Spodoptera eridania (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) for the European Union (EU). S. eridania (southern armyworm) is a highly polyphagous pest native to the Americas which has spread to Africa being first reported there in 2016. There are multiple generations per year.

Fern spore dispersal: A methodological review and experimental field study

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.
Abstract Spore dispersal is one of the most important but perhaps the least investigated and understood processes in determining the geographical distribution of fern species. After a methodological review of the aerobiology of fern spores, we examined the impact of spore characteristics and meteorological factors on their airborne dispersal.

Climatic triggers of the phenophases of Elaphoglossum macrophyllum in Southern Brazil

Rodriguésia, 2023
Although ferns have a prominent floristic position with their richness center in Atlantic Forest in Brazil, the effect of climate on their phenophases is still poorly known.

Water availability and evolutionary similarity shape the global distribution of ferns with chlorophyllous spores

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
About 14% of all fern species have chlorophyllous spores, which lack dormancy, have thin walls, and have a shorter viability (only a few days in some species). These spores should have limited dispersal distances and be more susceptible to harsher climatic conditions, raising questions about the evolutionary and ecological significance of this trait ...
