Restoration Ecology, 2022 With novel ecosystems becoming the norm, it is increasingly necessary to re-evaluate what is meant by “restoration.” An important aspect concerns which species are defined as native and, by extension, non-native. In order to better inform restoration actions, we have here devised a classification system of 10 graduated terms describing intermediate ...

Ammonium assimilation inhibitors weaken the growth of moso bamboo seedlings through metabolic dysregulation [PDF]
PeerJBackground The uncontrolled expansion of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) in subtropical regions threatens forest ecosystem integrity and biodiversity, yet effective control measures are lacking.

Impact of the invasive ant Linepithema humile on native ant assemblages on the western slopes of Table Mountain and implications for ant-butterfly associations [PDF]
, 2011 The Argentine Ant, Linepithema humile (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), is one of the world's most successful invasive species and invades undisturbed Fynbos habitats in South Africa, displacing native arthropod species and affecting interspecific associations.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Small Signaling Peptides Regulate Rice Drought Stress Responses
PlantsDrought stress is increasingly recognized as a major abiotic constraint on rice (Oryza Sativa L.) productivity and yield stability, posing a significant threat to global food security under rapidly changing and increasingly complex climatic conditions ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
