The interplay between virus infection and water-related stress is mediated by the plant metabolism of ascorbic acid. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Plants are often subjected to environmental variations in the context of infection such that virus‐induced and abiotic stresses co‐occur. One such environmental variation is water stress, which strongly impacts plant fitness. Although there is ample evidence of the beneficial effects of plant viruses under drought, the consequences of infection

Exposure of wetlands important for nonbreeding waterbirds to sea-level rise in the Mediterranean. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Sea‐level rise (SLR) is expected to cause major changes to coastal wetlands, which are among the world's most vulnerable ecosystems and are critical for nonbreeding waterbirds. Because strategies for adaptation to SLR, such as nature‐based solutions and designation of protected areas, can locally reduce the negative effects of coastal flooding
