Aridity‐dependent regulation of water‐use efficiency by leaf vein traits across grassland communities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2462-2474, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Water transport is a fundamental constraint on plant growth in arid regions. Leaf vein architecture regulates carbon assimilation and transpiration through leaf hydraulic conductance (Kleaf), thereby influencing ecosystem water‐use efficiency (WUE) via community‐level ...

Alleviation of phosphorus rather than nitrogen limitation driven by permafrost and landscape effects on Dahurian larch forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2590-2601, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Permafrost thaw is reshaping nutrient dynamics in boreal forests, but its impacts on tree nutrient limitation and functional strategies remain poorly understood. Clarifying these responses is crucial for predicting the response of boreal forests to climate change.

Evaluating potential restoration strategies for vascular epiphytes with niche‐based community mechanistic models

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Generally, delayed restoration of adult‐only epiphyte populations into older restored forests improves conservation outcomes. However, restoration can be optimised, initially introducing large populations of fast‐growing, light‐when‐mature species in younger forests followed by the later introduction of slow‐growing, heavy‐when‐mature species in ...

Shade is a team effort in a South African forest‐savanna mosaic

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study examined whether individual or ecosystem‐level traits are responsible for excluding shade‐intolerant grasses in forest understorey by developing a physical model to predict shade cast by the crown of an individual tree, and the canopy of densely packed trees.

Pinus armandii ectomycorrhizas mobilize aluminium‐bound phosphorus via carboxylates along a subtropical altitudinal gradient

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Ectomycorrhizal roots of Pinus armandii release more carboxylates than non‐mycorrhizal root segments, mobilizing Al‐bound inorganic P. Under the lowest available P conditions, they also secrete more phosphatase, promoting the mineralization of Al‐bound organic P.
