Using Plant DNA Barcodes and Functional Traits to Assess Community Assembly of Quercus Forests at Different Scales in the Semiarid Loess Plateau of China

Ecology and Evolution
Trait and evolutionary differences among coexisting species are increasingly used to comprehend the processes shaping communities. However, they do not consistently yield congruent insights due to methodological limitations and scale dependence ...

Sustainable Bioethanol Production from Soft Tissue Waste: Combining Hybrid Hydrolysis, Yeast Fermentation, and Membrane‐Based Separation

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
This study offers a sustainable approach for converting soft tissue waste into bioethanol, promoting the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Employing hybrid hydrolysis and the yeast Hanseniaspora uvarum, a glucose yield of 10.86 g L−1 is attained, with optimal bioethanol production reaching 7.55 g L−1, highlighting the potential of soft ...

Comparison of Pre‐ and Postoperative Gut Microbiota Diversity in Patients With Rectal Cancer Undergoing Stoma Creation and Closure

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We investigated the impact of temporary stoma creation and closure on gut microbiota diversity in rectal cancer patients. 16S rRNA sequencing revealed that microbial diversity significantly decreased postoperatively in the stoma group but remained stable in non‐stoma patients.

Grass functional traits reflect the long history of fire and grazers in the savannas of Texas

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding relationships among grass traits, fire, and herbivores may help improve conservation strategies for savannas that are threatened by novel disturbance regimes. Emerging theory, developed in Africa, emphasizes that functional traits of savanna grasses reflect the distinct ways that fire and grazers consume biomass ...

Does the abiotic environment influence the distribution of flower and fruit colors?

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Color in flowers and fruits carries multiple functions, from attracting animal partners (pollinators, dispersers) to mitigating environmental stress (cold, drought, UV‐B). With research historically focusing on biotic interactions as selective agents, however, it remains unclear whether abiotic stressors impact flower and fruit colors ...

Stomatal distribution and post‐fire recovery: Intra‐ and interspecific variation in plants of the pyrogenic Florida scrub

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Amphistomy, the presence of stomata on both leaf surfaces, can increase photosynthesis yet is uncommon across vascular plants. The relative infrequency of amphistomy is often attributed to high costs, such as transpirational water loss.

Deciphering fire tolerance of trees at the Amazonia–Cerrado transition by trait‐based approach: Implications from species to communities

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding how fire impacts trees is essential for predicting the effects of novel fire regimes on plant diversity in the transition between the world's two most diverse biomes, the Cerrado and the Amazonia. Here we addressed knowledge gaps regarding physiological damage and mortality in transitional species within fire‐prone ...
