Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) can influence soil carbon (C) accrual and loss. The mechanisms and environmental controls of this balance are unclear, and direct evidence is needed. We assessed the influence of atmospheric CO2 and inorganic nitrogen (N) on the impact of two ECM fungi on the cycling of native and new soil C. We inoculated Eucalyptus

Summary The macroevolutionary drivers for disparities in plant species richness across Australia are understudied, hindered by lack of densely sampled comparative phylogenetic data. Here, we address this gap by analysing plant diversification dynamics and quantifying macroevolutionary trajectories of 22 plant clades (4289 species in 14 families) across

Genetic variation among progeny shapes symbiosis in a basidiomycete with poplar
Summary Forest trees rely on ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi for acquiring scarce resources such as water and nutrients. However, the molecular mechanisms governing ECM traits remain inadequately understood, particularly the role of intraspecific fungal variation in root‐tip colonisation and trophic interactions.

Exploring the importance of aromatic plants' extrafloral volatiles for pollinator attraction
Summary Aromatic plants occur in many plant lineages and have widespread ethnobiological significance. Yet, the ecological significance and evolutionary origins of aromatic volatile emissions remain uncertain. Aromatic emissions have been implicated in defensive interactions but may also have other important functions.

ABSTRACT Homeodomain‐leucine zipper (HD‐ZIP) transcription factors, particularly subfamily I genes, are associated with drought stress responses. However, the functional roles of HD‐ZIP subfamily II genes, particularly in pepper (Capsicum annuum), remain inadequately studied, and their involvement in abscisic acid (ABA) signalling is not fully ...
