Phylogenetic Diversity Outperforms Functional Diversity in Predicting Aboveground Biomass Across Tree Strata in a Subtropical Forest

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Conducted in a subtropical forest in southwestern China, this study evaluates how various dimensions of plant biodiversity regulate aboveground biomass (AGB) across forest strata under consistent edaphic and topographic conditions, addressing the insufficiently elucidated question of which biodiversity dimension most prominently impacts AGB ...

Effects of Climate and Water Limitation on Reproductive Traits and Trait Divergence Across Soil Boundaries in a Serpentine‐Tolerant Annual Herb

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Soil and precipitation can drive divergence in plant populations, yet less is known about the potential for synergistic effects between soil and precipitation on reproductive traits. We characterized variation in flowering phenology across soil boundaries and along a precipitation gradient and experimentally evaluated how water limitation affects ...

Bird Diversity and Habitat Associations in the Tara Gedam Monastery Church Forest: A Seasonally Informed Study in Northwestern Ethiopia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study explores how habitat structure and seasonal variation shape bird diversity in the Tara Gedam Monastery church forest of Ethiopia. Across wet and dry seasons, 94 species were recorded, with abundance higher in the wet season but diversity remaining stable, underscoring the forest's role as a perennial refuge.

A Multi‐Factor Habitat Suitability Model for Asian Elephants in the Greater Mekong Subregion: Effects of Vegetation and Climate

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study assessed the combined effects of climate change and vegetation factors on the habitat suitability of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) in the Greater Mekong Subregion. By integrating MaxEnt modeling with structural equation modeling, we identified plant distribution as a key determinant of elephant habitat selection under future climate ...

Origins Under the Blowtorch: Frequent Fire Shifts the Balance Between Sunda‐Origin and Sahul‐Origin Plant Species in a Tropical Savanna

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We examined the effect of fire frequency on the composition of vegetation of different biogeographic origins, to understand how frequently an ecosystem can be subject to fire but still retain its evolutionary diversity. There was dramatic structural and biogeographic change in less than 20 years from dry tropical woodlands into savannas, creating ...
