Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1251-1269, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.

Species-specific responses to ozone and drought in six deciduous trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Saplings of alder (Alnus glutinosa), birch (Betula pendula), hazel (Corylus avellana), beech (Fagus sylvatica), ash (Fraxinus excelsior) and oak (Quercus robur) were exposed to five episodic ozone regimes in solardomes, with treatment means between 16 ...

PHR1 mediates rapid high light responses and acclimation to high photosynthetic activity

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 3, May 2026.
SUMMARY Changing light intensity requires immediate metabolic adjustment which involves reprogramming of both plastidial and nuclear gene expression, but the signaling pathways behind such responses are not fully understood. Here we report that an increase in light intensity causes fluctuations of Pi levels in the chloroplasts of Arabidopsis thaliana ...

The representation of root processes in models addressing the responses of vegetation to global change [PDF]

open access: yes
The representation of root activity in models is here confined to considerations of applications assessing the impacts of changes in climate or atmospheric [CO2].

The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

Corallorhiza striata is the first example of a pseudocopulatory orchid in North America and an instance of “double deception” in fully mycoheterotrophic plants

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Premise Orchids have many pollination strategies, from highly species‐specific mutualisms with insects to deceit pollination, including sexual deception. The family also has the most leafless, parasitic species (mycoheterotrophs) of any plant family.

Carbon allocation and carbon isotope fluxes in the plant-soil-atmosphere continuum: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The terrestrial carbon (C) cycle has received increasing interest over the past few decades, however, there is still a lack of understanding of the fate of newly assimilated C allocated within plants and to the soil, stored within ecosystems and lost to ...

Monitoring Coral Reef Metabolism Under Changing Oceans–Novel Insights From Seawater Stable Carbon Isotopes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Mounting environmental stressors are driving Caribbean reefs from coral to sponge and macroalgae dominance, necessitating a need for more nuanced metrics of reef metabolism under trophic transitions. Drawing upon four seasonally replicated field campaigns to Curaçao, we reveal highly variable net ecosystem productivity (−243 ± 69 C m−2 day−1 ...

Differential effects of insect herbivory on arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A series of field and laboratory experiments were conducted to examine whether natural levels of insect herbivory affect the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization of two plant species.

Optimal allocation patterns and optimal seed mass of a perennial plant

open access: yes, 2013
We present a novel optimal allocation model for perennial plants, in which assimilates are not allocated directly to vegetative or reproductive parts but instead go first to a storage compartment from where they are then optimally redistributed.
