Desenvolvimento inicial e partição de biomassa de Brosimum rubescens Taub. (Moraceae) sob diferentes níveis de sombreamento Initial development and biomass allocation in seedlings of Brosimum rubescens Taub. (Moraceae) at different shading levels

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2008
Florestas monodominantes de Brosimum rubescens Taub. (Moraceae) ocorrem na zona de transição Cerrado/Amazônia e encontram-se ameaçadas pela extração da madeira. Dentre as possíveis causas de monodominância destaca-se a disponibilidade de luz, de modo que

Passive Rewilding of Old‐Established Plantations Into Native Forests

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 36, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Passive rewilding in old black pine plantations is shaped by both environmental conditions and top‐down effects from forest layers. Upper vegetation layers filter understory diversity, highlighting the structural complexity driving the transition toward native forest ecosystems.

Competition and soil microbe‐mediated interactions following dieback of a dominant wetland plant

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Plant invasions can have important consequences for the soil ecosystem which, in turn, can affect interactions with other plant species and impose serious constraints on restoration efforts. In the Mississippi River Delta (MRD), USA, widespread dieback of the dominant wetland plant, Phragmites australis, was followed by the colonization of ...

A Systematic Review of 65 Years of Research on Nothofagus: An Iconic Southern Hemisphere Genus

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Nothofagus is a genus of 37 species of tree distributed across the Southern Hemisphere and has long been considered a taxon of fundamental importance for understanding the evolution and ecology of the forest ecosystems of the Southern Hemisphere. Using quantitative text analysis, we evaluated 65 years of research on this iconic genus.

Native fruit traits may mediate dispersal competition between native and non-native plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Seed disperser preferences may mediate the impact of invasive, non-native plant species on their new ecological communities. Significant seed disperser preference for invasives over native species could facilitate the spread of the invasives while ...

Mycorrhizal Barriers to the Upslope Migration of Tropical Trees

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
Mycorrhizae can impact soil nutrient cycling, with reduced nitrogen availability and increased litter depth beneath ectomycorrhizal Fagales. The presence of Fagales‐dominated montane forests in parts of Asia and Central America could impose a significant barrier to the upslope migration of lowland arbuscular mycorrhizal tree species migrating under ...

Contrasting Species Richness in Patches of Alternative Foundation Species Suggests a Framework for Understanding Species of Unusual Effect

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 36, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
In a southeastern USA pine savanna, groundcover patches dominated by bracken ferns or gallberry shrubs have lower diversity relative to native bunchgrass areas. We hypothesize that relative to one another at our site, whereas bunchgrasses are diversity‐enhancing Species of Unusual Effect (SUEs), bracken and gallberry are diversity‐inhibiting SUEs—each ...

The Hydrological-Hydrochemical Factors that Control the Invasion of the Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) in Succession in Areas with Opencast Mines

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Studies on opencast mines have indicated that the spontaneous colonization of excavations and sedimentation tanks by vegetation is determined not only by the substratum and the land relief, but also by the hydrological and hydrochemical relations in the ...
