Comparative Analysis of Lavandula Dentata Rhizosphere Microbiota Across Different Developmental Stages in a Semi‐Arid Area

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study aims to give deeper insight into the relationship between the dynamics of the rhizospheric microbiota and the developmental stages of L. dentata growing spontaneously in a semi‐arid environment. To achieve this objective, we examined and monitored the biomass (using phospholipid fatty acid, PLFA analysis), diversity and network complexity of

Nutrient addition, but not vertebrate predator exclusion, shapes arthropod communities and herbivory in a temperate forest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 303-321, April 2026.
We experimentally manipulated top‐down (predator exclusion) and bottom‐up (fertilisation) forces in a temperate forest understory to test effects on arthropod densities, body sizes and herbivory. Predator exclusion had no detectable effect on arthropod density, herbivory damage or body size, whereas fertilisation increased herbivory damage and ...

Ecological predictors of plant responses to sequential herbivory: a meta‐analysis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 1128-1140, April 2026.
Summary Plants evolved alongside herbivores for over 400 million years and show remarkable plasticity in responses to attack by multiple herbivores. However, it is often debated which herbivore traits predict plant responses and it is poorly understood how plant life‐history traits contribute to the variation observed in plant responses.

Fungal ecology in the age of 'omics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 822-833, April 2026.
Summary The advancement of technology in recent decades has given us an unprecedented ability to observe the natural world. With modern sequencing and bioinformatics technologies, we can obtain more information about the microscopic world, and its interactions with the macroscopic world, than ever before.

Reconciling links between diversity and population stability across global plant communities

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 154-165, April 2026.
Summary Maintaining ecological stability is essential for sustaining ecosystem functions and the benefits they provide to society. Ecological theory predicts that plant diversity destabilizes local populations, yet empirical studies report variable effects.
