Measuring the Impact of Conservation: The Growing Importance of Monitoring Fauna, Flora and Funga

Diversity, 2022
Many stakeholders, from governments to civil society to businesses, lack the data they need to make informed decisions on biodiversity, jeopardising efforts to conserve, restore and sustainably manage nature. Here we review the importance of enhancing biodiversity monitoring, assess the challenges involved and identify potential solutions. Capacity for

Assessing functional diversity and composition using multispectral images in Atlantic Forest restoration sites

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction By focusing on the specific functional traits of species, we can better understand how ecosystems function and respond to environmental change. However, field measurements of functional traits can be time‐consuming and costly, whereas remote sensing data can serve as viable alternatives for studying biodiversity at larger scales ...

Molecular-Based Diversity Studies and Field Surveys Are Not Mutually Exclusive: On the Importance of Integrated Methodologies in Mycological Research

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
Understanding and describing the diversity of living organisms is a great challenge. Fungi have for a long time been, and unfortunately still are, underestimated when it comes to taxonomic research.

Matchmaking: a meta‐analysis of plant growth‐promoting microbial partnerships driving tree seedling performance in the Atlantic Forest biome

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF) is a biodiversity hotspot, and inoculating native seedlings with plant growth‐promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) may enhance seedling vigor for forest restoration. Objectives We performed a meta‐analysis to evaluate the effects of PGPMs on BAF seedlings and identify strategies to optimize ...

Plants and Insect Eggs: First Report of a Katydid Using a Fern as Host for Oviposition

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Ferns are the second most diverse lineage of vascular plants worldwide and are particularly abundant in tropical forests. However, the ecological significance of such remarkable diversity has been often underestimated. In this article, we report for the first time the observation of ferns, specifically Polytaenium cajenense (Desv.) Benedict ...

The coordination of cell growth during fission yeast mating requires Ras1-GTP hydrolysis [PDF]

, 2013
The spatial and temporal control of polarity is fundamental to the survival of all organisms. Cells define their polarity using highly conserved mechanisms that frequently rely upon the action of small GTPases, such as Ras and Cdc42.
