Snake oil in action: Geographic and seasonal variability in epidermal lipids shape evaporative water loss in snakes

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 15-25, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many reptiles inhabit deserts where extreme heat and aridity make it imperative to minimize evaporative water loss (EWL) in order to maintain a water balance. We compared the EWL of desert versus Mediterranean snakes and the content and composition of their epidermal ...

Nitrogen mediates root–fungal effects on European beech biomass but not adaptability to the environment

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
The results reveal low adaptedness but high adaptability among beech seedlings, supporting mixed plantings of local and climate‐matched non‐local populations to strengthen forest resilience. Root‐associated fungi strongly influenced seedling growth through nitrogen uptake, with mycorrhizal fungi having positive effects and saprotrophs negative ones ...

Managing polyploid complexity in grassland restoration: Cytotype differentiation and implications for seed zones

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our decision framework enables seed producers and managers to take consistent action on the challenge of polyploid complexes in restoration. Different ploidy levels should not be mixed to avoid fitness losses. Depending on abundance and distribution, either the dominant ploidy level should be prioritised, or multiple ploidy levels need to be managed ...

Increased fire occurrence benefits early oak regeneration in temperate deciduous forests in part by disrupting an invasive grass‐fire feedback

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
These results suggest that recurring fire can mitigate the negative effects of grass invasion and create conditions more favourable for early oak regeneration in temperate deciduous forests. Abstract Feedbacks between fire and non‐native grasses can lead to a grass‐fire cycle that intensifies grass invasion and harms native trees.

Pruning for biodiversity: Drivers of cavity formation and use in Mediterranean holm oak woodlands

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our study emphasizes the role of both tree and cavity age in the long‐term establishment of cavity‐dependent vertebrates in holm oak woodlands. In the context of climate change—where holm oak trees are expected to replace more mesic, soft‐wooded tree species in the Mediterranean region—the persistence of cavity‐dependent vertebrate biodiversity will ...
