Recent and ancient evolutionary events shaped plant elemental composition of edaphic endemics: a phylogeny-wide analysis of Iberian gypsum plants. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol, 2022
Summary The analysis of plant elemental composition and the underlying factors affecting its variation are a current hot topic in ecology. Ecological adaptation to atypical soils may shift plant elemental composition. However, no previous studies have evaluated its relevance against other factors such as phylogeny, climate or individual soil conditions.

Sex- and trait-specific contribution of individual- and population-level processes to age-related changes in multiple plumage ornaments [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Individuals experience changes in multiple traits across their lifespan, often peaking before senescence-driven declines. Many species display secondary sexual traits that can vary with age due to physiological and selective processes ...

Fairy ring‐induced soil potassium depletion gradients reshape microbial community composition in a montane grassland

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 73, Issue 3, May–June 2022., 2022
Abstract Fairy rings promoting circular greening belts in the vegetation can shape soil microbial communities by altering soil conditions. Knowledge about soil variables involved in this process is incomplete. We characterised the soil microbial communities of six fairy rings in a montane grassland using phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) profiling, and ...

Towards a global understanding of tree mortality

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 6, Page 2377-2392, March 2025.
Summary Rates of tree mortality are increasing globally, with implications for forests and climate. Yet, how and why these trends vary globally remain unknown. Developing a comprehensive assessment of global tree mortality will require systematically integrating data from ground‐based long‐term forest monitoring with large‐scale remote sensing.

Rewilding through inappropriate species introduction: The case of European bison in Spain

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2024.
The increasing pressure to release bisons as a wild species in Spain, as an ecological analogue of the extinct steppe bison Bison priscus, makes it an excellent example to reflect on whether the rewilding of Europe would be, or not, biogeographically advisable. We scrutiny this proposal taking into account the best available evidence on the species, in
