Integrating large mammalian herbivores into Dynamic Global Vegetation Models: Status and next steps

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Zoogeochemistry, the study of how animals influence elemental cycling within ecosystems, bridges the fields of zoology, ecology and biogeochemistry. Yet, most terrestrial ecosystem models, especially Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs), remain largely plant‐centric

Zinc addition and mowing alter the timing and duration of reproductive phenology in dominant plants of a meadow steppe

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology, while genetically determined, is highly responsive to environmental drivers such as soil nutrient availability and disturbance. As an essential micronutrient, zinc (Zn) plays a critical role in plant development by regulating key processes including RNA

Functional traits can explain coordinated seedling responses to drought and freezing stress

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Limited plant establishment creates demographic bottlenecks that can alter vegetation trajectories in changing environments, yet it is unclear how common eco‐evolutionary indicators of plant strategy shape early response to key stressors.

Phenology drives asymmetric responses of ecosystem productivity stability to warming and cooling

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem productivity stability is a key indicator of ecosystem functioning under climate change, but the role of cooling periods in increasingly variable climates remains poorly resolved.

Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...
