Native ants learn how to deal with cues of invasive species: responses to footprints of invasive ants are shaped by experience

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Invasive ants threaten biodiversity worldwide. They may benefit from being novel if native species fail to show appropriate responses to their cues. Cues include chemical footprints (or ‘home‐range markings' in ants) left by all walking insects, which resemble cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs).

Evolutionary rescue in a mixed beech–fir forest: insights from a quantitative‐genetics approach in a process‐based model

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Questions have been raised about the ability of long‐lived organisms, such as trees, to adapt to rapid climate change, and to what extent forest management actions influence the evolutionary responses of tree species. Given the life history of trees and the time scales involved, these questions are often addressed through modeling approaches. Yet, most

Essential Oil Profiles of Lippia turbinata (Verbenaceae) from Argentina: Insights from a Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This study systematically reviews essential oil (EO) profiles of Lippia turbinata (Verbenaceae) populations from Argentina. A meta‐analysis reveals significant chemical variability and distinct chemotypes, primarily defined by limonene, carvone, β‐caryophyllene, and caryophyllene oxide.

Assessing the role of kelp for small‐scale fisheries by combining fishers' knowledge of spawning locations with modelled kelp distribution

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Kelp forests are found on rocky shores from polar to temperate coasts, where they provide important ecosystem services to humans. For coastal communities, kelp forests are particularly important as spawning and nursery grounds for small‐scale fisheries.

Arbuscular mycorrhiza in the urban jungle: Glomeromycotina communities of the dominant city tree across Amsterdam

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Trees in cities provide a great number of benefits to people and nature, but they are challenged by harsh conditions. Trees rely on helpful fungi in their roots to get essential nutrients from the soil, but we do not know which of these fungi are resistant to city landscapes.

Characterizing season‐long floral trajectories in cotton with low‐altitude remote sensing and deep learning

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plant breeding is a critical tool for increasing the productivity, climate resilience, and sustainability of agriculture, but current phenotyping methods are a bottleneck due to the amount of human labor involved. Here, we demonstrate high‐throughput phenotyping with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to analyze the season‐long flowering pattern in ...

Farmer selection of drought‐tolerant enset landraces reduces trait diversity in drier environments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Drought stress poses a growing threat to food security worldwide. In this study, we investigated the putative drought tolerance traits of enset, a multipurpose staple crop endemic to Ethiopia that sustains over 20 million people. Our findings reveal that enset's domestication has reduced landrace diversity and trait variability, particularly in drier ...

Help from the past to cope with the future: Vitis sylvestris as a resource for abiotic stress resilience

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Viticulture is facing increasing challenges due to climate change. The focus on fast growth and sweet berries has come at the expense of stress resilience. Grafting onto Phylloxera‐resistant rootstocks from American species has been the most successful form of ecological pest management.

More sustainability in Europe's vineyards – Using resistant grapevine varieties to reduce the input of pesticides

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Widespread adoption of disease‐resistant grapevine varieties presents a significant opportunity to revolutionize viticulture and address pressing environmental concerns. By reducing reliance on chemical pesticides, these varieties align with the European Commission's Green Deal objectives, striving for sustainable agricultural
