Long‐Term Changes in Evapotranspiration in Once‐Degraded Mountain Catchments: Insights From 93 Years of Data on Forest and Soil Recovery and Climate Change Effects

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 4, April 2026.
Long‐term data (1930–2022) from the Shirasaka Experimental Watershed revealed that evapotranspiration did not consistently increase throughout the 20th century, despite significant recovery of forests and soils following historical anthropogenic degradation.

Roles of 3-carene in the pine wilt disease resistance induced by the Serratia marcescens strain BRC-CXG2

Industrial Crops and Products
Serratia marcescens is an endophytic bacterium coexisting with Pinus sp., Monochamus alternatus, and Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Due to its intensive application as a biocontrol bacterium in crops, S.

Resistance of Tectona grandis To Ceratocystis Wilt

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Tectona grandis (teak) is a tree species highly appreciated for its high‐quality hardwood and versatile industrial applications. Despite clonal teak plantations showing several advantages, such as reduced rotation time and increased wood volume production, the genetic uniformity of plantations makes them more susceptible to diseases ...

Requirement of group I lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase for turnover of chitinous cuticle during moulting in two forest pest beetles, Monochamus alternatus and Psacothea hilaris

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 115-125, April 2026.
Group I LPMO15‐1 cDNAs from two economically important forest insect pests, M. alternatus and P. hilaris, were cloned. MaLPMO15‐1 and PhLPMO15‐1 show a similar pattern of expression during late stages of development. RNAi for LPMO15‐1 causes failure of adult eclosion in both M. alternatus and P. hilaris.

Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index for monitoring forest moisture stress using time series of Sentinel‐1 SAR data

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 978-990, April 2026.
This study demonstrates the potential of the Sentinel‐1 Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index, combined with climate variables and the Standardized Precipitation–Evapotranspiration Index, to effectively detect and monitor drought‐induced stress in temperate broadleaf deciduous forests.

Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 561-577, April 2026.
This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...

Transcriptomic Profiling Reveals Differentially Expressed Genes Associated with Pine Wood Nematode Resistance in Masson Pine (Pinus massoniana Lamb.)

Scientific Reports, 2017
Pine wilt disease caused by pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, PWN) is a severe forest disease of the genus Pinus. Masson pine as an important timber and oleoresin resource in South China, is the major species infected by pine wilt disease ...

How to eradicate an invasive forest pest without clear‐cutting

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
The results show that selective cutting applied together with modern remote sensing surveillance methods is an environmentally friendly alternative to the mandatory clear‐cutting for PWN control in the EU. Abstract The pine wood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is an invasive species causing high pine mortality in invaded areas outside its ...
