Can species adapt to drought using multiple strategies? Lessons from the California poppy

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2918-2932, June 2026.
Summary Plants can escape drought by completing life cycles early, tolerate drought by increasing physiological limits, or avoid drought stress by obtaining or using water more efficiently. It remains unclear whether strategies vary within species across their distributional ranges due to trade‐offs, and whether species can exhibit plasticity in ...

A broad typology of dry rainforests on the western slopes of New South Wales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dry rainforests are those communities that have floristic and structural affinities to mesic rainforests and occur in parts of eastern and northern Australia where rainfall is comparatively low and often highly seasonal.

Effect of a Trench Combined With Exclosure on Recovery of Herbaceous Biomass in Degraded Mountain Areas in Hawasa Watershed, Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 8, Page 3372-3379, 15 May 2026.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the restoration of herbaceous biomass in degraded mountain lands by comparing the impact of trenches established alongside exclosures (EX‐SWC) to exclosures alone (EX). To achieve the objective, herbaceous biomass was collected from areas restored using EX‐SWC and EX over three consecutive years ...

Phylogenetic Diversity and Community Assembly of Vascular Plants Along Environmental Gradients in the Western Pamir–Alay: A Case Study From Surkhandarya Province, Southern Uzbekistan

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using extensive field, herbarium, and database records, we examine patterns of species richness, phylogenetic diversity, and community assembly along elevational and climatic gradients in an understudied region of Central Asia. ABSTRACT Biodiversity plays a fundamental role in ecosystem structure, function, and stability, but its response to ...

Patterns and Drivers of Spontaneous Plant Diversity in Urban Wastelands Across 17 Cities on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The first regional survey of spontaneous plant communities across 17 cities on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau shows that natural climatic conditions, especially precipitation and wind speed, are the primary drivers of variation in community diversity, while urbanization and habitat quality jointly structure plant community composition.

Extensive Pollen Flow and Historical Population Expansions Shaped the Phylogeographic Pattern of Choerospondias axillaris: Evidence From Chloroplast DNA and ITS Sequences

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
MaxEnt‐based predictions reveal dramatic range dynamics of Choerospondias axillaris during Quaternary climate cycles, including northward expansion during the last interglacial, southward contraction into fragmented refugia during the last glacial maximum, and subsequent northward recolonization since the post‐glacial period.

Comparative Chloroplast Genomics of Cousinia (Asteraceae) With Nine Newly Sequenced Endemic Species From Central Asia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
In this study, nine complete chloroplast genomes of Cousinia species endemic to the Pamir–Alay mountain system were sequenced and analyzed together with previously published plastomes and nuclear ribosomal ITS data. ABSTRACT Cousinia (Asteraceae: Cardueae) represents one of the most species‐rich genera within the Irano–Turanian floristic region, yet ...

Spatial Distribution and Conservation Prioritization of Medicinal Gymnosperms in China Using an Optimal Set‐Cover Approach

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study identified 41 priority conservation grids and 8 critical conservation gaps not covered by national reserves for medicinal gymnosperms. We proposed a practical, multi‐dimensional framework for their conservation. ABSTRACT To elucidate the geographical distribution patterns and hotspots of medicinal gymnosperms in China, providing a scientific ...
