Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.

Soil and microbial responses to wild ungulate trampling depend more on ecosystem type than trampling severity

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Physical trampling is a ubiquitous activity of walking vertebrates, but is poorly understood as a mechanism impacting biogeochemical cycling in soil. Lack of detailed knowledge of soil abiotic–biotic interactions underlying trampling effects, and the primary sources of ...

Many roads to reservoirs? How susceptibility and shedding shape host competence in amphibians

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host competence—the ability to acquire, harbour and transmit infections—drives pathogen spread and persistence in multi‐host communities. Evaluating species‐specific competence is critical for predicting transmission, particularly for generalist fungal pathogens like ...

Unique species interactions determine the decomposition activity of fungal communities

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fungal diversity plays a critical role in decomposition, a key process in carbon (C) cycling and ecosystem functioning. However, diversity–function relationships in microbial systems remain context‐dependent and challenging to predict.

Global change reshapes glomalin‐mediated soil carbon sequestration by influencing plant inputs

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Glomalin‐related soil protein (GRSP), a by‐product of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), plays a crucial role in stabilizing soil organic carbon (SOC). Global change factors (GCFs) such as elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), climate warming and anthropogenic ...
