Restoration of species-rich grasslands by transfer of local plant material and its impact on species diversity and genetic variation-Findings of a practical restoration project in southeastern Germany. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 In our study, we analyzed the impact of restoration on the genetic variation of typical grassland plant species. Our results indicate that the transfer of local seed‐containing plant material is a technique highly suitable to create genetically variable and locally adapted plant populations.

Intra-annual growing season climate variability drives the community intra-annual stability of a temperate grassland by altering intra-annual species asynchrony and richness in Inner Mongolia, China. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Intra‐annual growing season precipitation variability and temperature variability indirectly influenced the community intra‐annual biomass stability by negative effect on intra‐annual species asynchrony and intra‐annual species richness, respectively. ; Intra‐annual biomass stability of dominant species and dominant functional group were insensitive to

Ideotype Selection of Perennial Flax (Linum spp.) for Herbaceous Plant Habit Traits
Agronomy, 2022 (1) Background: Annual flax (Linum usitatissimum) and many wild relatives possess showy blue flowers and finely textured foliage. To promote the use of blue-flowered flax as ornamentals, an herbaceous perennial flax breeding program was initiated to ...

Grazing hay meadows: History, distribution, and ecological context
Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 26, Issue 2, April/June 2023., 2023 Grazing hay meadows, once widespread across Europe, became limited to rural regions with maintained traditional agriculture. Spring and autumn grazing, along with corralling and manuring of hay meadows, were integral parts of all farming systems existing in the Carpathian Mountains in parallel before agricultural intensification. We describe details on

Drying conditions alter the defensive function of seed mucilage against granivores
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 525-536, February 2023., 2023 We found that increasing temperatures reduced the drying time of mucilaginous seeds, leading to less strong attachment and easier exploitation by granivorous ants. These results add to a small, but growing, literature on the importance of seed mucilage in seed survival and demonstrate strong and largely predictable context‐dependency in this trait's ...

Relevant Developments in the Use of Three-Component Reactions for the Total Synthesis of Natural Products. The last 15 Years. [PDF]
ChemistryOpenMulticomponent reactions (MCRs) are a valuable strategy toward complex polysubstituted compounds because they simplify long sequences, increasing their efficiency. The total synthesis of natural products achieved since 2004 through the use of three‐component reactions as a strategic MCR approach is reviewed.
