Residence time and functional traits shape conspecific plant–soil feedback but not inferred coexistence patterns of alien and native species

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Illustration of the study design and key findings on the effects of residence time and functional traits on conspecific plant‐soil feedback and inferred coexistence patterns in alien and native species. Abstract Plant–soil feedback (PSF) describes changes in a plant's performance when growing in soil previously occupied by another plant, often driven ...

The loss of an Indigenous‐maintained She‐Oak woodland in southeast Australia

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A 2600‐year multi‐proxy palaeoecological record (pollen, charcoal, and sediment) from Balfour Swamp, east Gippsland, reveals the persistence of an open, grassy She‐Oak woodland maintained by GunaiKurnai. This vegetation community, resilient to climatic variability and fire, was lost following the disruption of Aboriginal land management and replaced by

Mesoscale Covariation in the Plant–Soil Neighbourhood of a South African Montane Grassland

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant–soil relationships are the foundation of terrestrial life, sustaining global ecosystems through biomass and food production, nutrient cycling and microbial activity, and ecosystem regulation. To better understand plant–soil relationships in a changing world, we investigated mesoscale covariation in the plant–soil neighbourhood of a South

Long‐term surveillance reveals hybridization by nuclear reassortment and intercontinental spread as major evolutionary drivers in wheat yellow rust

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2091-2106, August 2026.
Documented incursions of Puccinia striiformis 2009–2023 based on sequential resampling of MLGs/pathogen races on different continents. Summary Evolutionary forces affecting crop pathogens, including hybridization and long‐distance dispersal (LDD), may have strong implications for food security and sustainable plant disease control at global scales ...

Seed pellets containing activated carbon increase emergence of native plant species used in dryland restoration following herbicide application

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 6, August 2026.
Abstract Introduction Over half of dryland ecosystems worldwide are degraded, making restoration a priority. Most dryland restoration efforts use seed‐based approaches, which often result in limited establishment of desirable species. The dual challenges of abiotic stressors and invasive species dominance are key barriers to native plant community ...
