Harnessing microbial power to degrade hydrocarbon‐based plastics

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract The growing global plastic waste crisis demands the development of urgent, effective, and sustainable solutions. While conventional recycling methods present intrinsic limitations, microbial biodegradation of plastic waste has emerged as a promising alternative.

Canscora agni (Gentianaceae), a new species from the fire‐prone Indian savannas

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
We describe Canscora agni from the Indian savannas as a distinct species which differs from its allied species Canscora alata in having fewer and shorter leaves, pedicel‐wings unequal across the length, bracts with glandular hair on the margins, calyx‐wings being four, wider, up to 2.3 mm, with distinct reticulate venation and having ovary length up to

Litter quality and its effect on litter decomposition and macro-decomposers in alpine soils

, 2019
Alpines Grasland entstand durch Jahrhunderte extensiver Bewirtschaftung und beherbergt eine einzigartige Flora und Fauna, welche etliche Ökosystemleistungen bereitstellen. Jedoch werden diese seit 1950 aufgelassen, was zur Verbuschung führt und die Pflanzen- und Tiergemeinschaften erheblich beeinflusst.

Suppression of soil microbiota rather than neighbours facilitates absinthe Artemisia absinthium invasion in native grasslands

Oikos, EarlyView.
Many mechanisms can lead to successful plant invasion, but their importance is often context dependent. One such mechanism is allelopathy: chemical inhibition of neighbouring plants. The importance of allelopathy may be mediated by soil microbiota and environmental conditions, and depend upon the species or functional group affected.

The dual role of detritus as resource and habitat: integrating non‐trophic processes to ecosystem dynamics

Oikos, EarlyView.
The diversity of ecological interactions, both trophic and non‐trophic, is central to understanding the assembly of communities. However, we have yet to study non‐trophic processes through their action on ecosystem compartments such as detritus involved in both recycling and habitat provisioning.
