The composition and diversity of natural regeneration of tree species in gaps under different intensities of forest disturbance

open access: yesJournal of Forest Research, 2021
The positive ecological interaction between gap formation and natural regeneration has been examined but little research has been carried out on the effects of gaps on natural regeneration in forests under different intensities of disturbance. This study

Morpho-Physiological and Genomic Evaluation of Juglans Species Reveals Regional Maladaptation to Cold Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Climate change may have unpredictable effects on the cold hardiness of woody species planted outside of their range of origin. Extreme undulations in temperatures may exacerbate susceptibility to cold stress, thereby interfering with productivity and ...

Dynamics of Natural Regeneration: Implications for Landscape Restoration in the Atlantic Forest, Brazil

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
This study aimed to understand post-agricultural natural forest regeneration in the Southern Brazilian Atlantic Forest and its possible role as a cost-effective, passive approach to forest restoration.

Rethinking the natural regeneration failure of pedunculate oak: The pathogen mildew hypothesis

open access: yes, 2021
Introduced pathogen microorganisms are important drivers of ecosystem change. This paper highlights the impact of the non-native pathogen mildew multi-species complex on the natural regeneration dynamics of pedunculate oak (Quercus robur).

The influence of fencing on seedling establishment during reforestation of oak stands: a comparison of artificial and natural regeneration techniques including costs

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Forest Research, 2021
In temperate Europe, oak-dominated forests are widespread, supporting high biodiversity and providing important ecosystem services. Insufficient natural regeneration has, however, been a concern for over a century. The objective of this study was to gain

Low molecular weight polysialic acid binds to properdin and reduces the activity of the alternative complement pathway

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Sialic acids as the terminal caps of the cellular glycocalyx play an essential role in self-recognition and were shown to modulate complement processes via interaction between α2,3-linked sialic acids and complement factor H. Previously, it was suggested

Achieving cost‐effective landscape‐scale forest restoration through targeted natural regeneration

open access: yesConservation Letters, 2020
High costs of tree planting are a barrier to meeting global forest restoration targets. Natural forest regeneration is more cost‐effective than tree planting, but its potential to foster restoration at scale is poorly understood.

The Possibility of Regenerating a Pine Stand through Natural Regeneration

open access: yesForests, 2021
Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) is a widespread species in Eurasia, but its natural range can be significantly altered by a variety of stressors. The ability of pine to regenerate naturally is significantly reduced by its occurrence in unsuitable ...

Modelling natural regeneration of European beech in Saxony, Germany: identifying factors influencing the occurrence and density of regeneration

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Forest Research, 2021
The potential utilisation of natural regeneration of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) for forest conversion has received little attention to date. Ecological knowledge is necessary to understand and predict successful natural regeneration of beech ...

Editorial: Enhancing Natural Regeneration to Restore Landscapes

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
Entering the UN decade of restoration, the time to bring commitments to action is now (UN, 2019). Evidence supports the potential for natural regeneration as a low-cost and effective strategy to restore ecosystems and their services (Chazdon and ...
