Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

From foraging to decomposition: Large vertebrates as biotic drivers of trace element cycling across landscapes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We highlight an overlooked pathway in ecosystem functioning: the role of animal carcass decomposition in trace element cycling. By linking animal life cycles to landscape‐scale processes, we explain how large animals redistribute scarce elements and influence spatial heterogeneity, with implications for ecosystem functioning and restoration.

Identification of ‘Prata anã’ banana leaf to diagnose the level of phosphorus sufficiency

Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2018
The aim of this study was to identify the leaf and its part with greater sensitivity to detect P variation in the ‘Prata anã’ banana plant. The experiment was carried out in Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, in a clayey Oxisol.

A multiplex PCR assay for the detection of six foliar fungal pathogens of faba bean

Canadian journal of plant pathology
Faba bean is susceptible to several foliar fungal diseases: ascochyta blight (Ascochyta fabae), alternaria leaf spot (Alternaria sp.), chocolate spot (Botrytis cinerea and Botrytis fabae), anthracnose (Colletotrichum lentis) and stemphylium blight ...

Wood Thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) occupancy patterns reveal sensitivity to low precipitation on nonbreeding grounds in northern Costa Rica

Ibis, EarlyView.
Climatic change and anthropogenic disturbances are reshaping animal populations. Habitat loss and extreme climatic events are particularly strong drivers of declines in species that depend on forested areas. For migratory songbirds, climate and the persistence of suitable habitat over time are fundamental to sustaining populations annually.

Shedding light on forest health: noninvasive early foliar pathogen diagnostics via vibrational spectroscopy molecular fingerprinting

Applied spectroscopy reviews (Softcover ed.)
Emerging foliar forest diseases, such as ash dieback, are posing an unprecedented threat to the survival of forests globally. Forests serve important cultural, ecological, economic and societal functions and as such, the rapid identification ...

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

Genetic, phenotypic, and ecological differentiation indicate a new cryptic and threatened species in the orchid genus Epidendrum from Alcatrazes Island, southeastern Brazil

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Epidendrum insularis occurs on the remote Alcatrazes Island in the southeastern Brazilian coast. The description of this new cryptic species was only possible by the joint use of molecular markers, reproductive experiments, flower morphometry, functional traits, and community analysis.
