Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

Business and Biodiversity: Scaling Conservation Enterprises Within and Beyond Place for Transformative Change

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transformative change is required to address persistent and systemic drivers of biodiversity loss. There is an urgent need for innovative solutions that tackle root causes in place‐specific contexts. Evidence indicates that small, innovative, purpose‐driven businesses can serve as vehicles for developing place‐based solutions.

When Social Media Influencers Work: A Meta‐Analysis of Brand Engagement, Behavioral Intention, and Boundary Conditions

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how social media influencers (SMIs) shape brand engagement and behavioral intention and when these effects vary across contexts. Drawing on 97 studies with a sample of 40,330 participants, we employ one‐stage meta‐analytic structural equation modeling (OSMASEM) to estimate the effects of SMI credibility (attractiveness ...

Study on the composite fracture characteristics of filling and reinforcing cracked rock mass after high temperature damage

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Cement infill shares compressive and shear stresses during loading, while interfacial friction hinders crack propagation and reduces stress concentration, improving the rock's load‐bearing capacity. Failure modes vary with crack inclination. Unfilled specimens show four modes.

High atmospheric pressure rescues plant growth under humidity stress: A model for climate‐resilient deep underground agriculture

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
High atmospheric pressure (120 kPa) in deep underground counteracts humidity‐induced physiological stress in plants, stabilizing water balance and enhancing antioxidative defenses. This synergy boosts biomass despite elevated humidity, demonstrating sustainable deep underground agriculture potential under climate uncertainty.
