A putative nursery pollination mutualism between Japanese Chrysosplenium plants and Nipponorhynchus sawflies

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding ecological interactions is increasingly important for biodiversity conservation. This study reveals a unique nursery pollination mutualism between Japanese endemic plants and sawflies. These partners exhibit tightly synchronized life cycles in riparian forests, making them sensitive to environmental changes.

Two centuries of Begonia exploration in the Philippines: Progress and challenges associated with a megadiverse genus in the Global South

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Megadiverse genera represent the highest concentration of plant diversity, but these plants are also located primarily in countries in the Global South where huge gaps in botanical knowledge remain. This study summarized two centuries of Begonia collection records in the Philippines to show how historical events coincide with collection and taxonomic ...

Endophytic fungi from two isolated Bethencourtia palmensis populations: metabolomic and bioactivity fingerprinting

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We compared two island populations of Bethencourtia palmensis and their culturable endophytic fungi, revealing distinct plant chemistries and a higher biopesticidal potential in the endophytic fungi from La Palma population along with high potential for the discovery of novel compounds.

Plant invasion in mountain ecosystems reduces soil micro‐food web complexity at higher elevations

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Anthropogenic activities have accelerated plant invasions in mountain ecosystems, impacting the structure and functions of native plant communities. Changes in above‐ground vegetation can drive shifts in below‐ground biota, yet the effects of plant invasions on soil ...
