The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Abstract In recent years, mobile applications, including artificial intelligence‐based ones such as Seek by iNaturalist, have become essential educational tools, particularly for science and outdoor learning. Therefore, we decided to work with this mobile app and conduct a pilot investigation of its reliability in selected conifer species ...

ABSTRACT Although the field of plant EVs (PEVs) is experiencing exponential growth, rigorous characterisation complying with MISEV guidelines has not been yet implemented due to the lack of bona fide reference markers. In this work, we have paved the way for the standardisation of PEV markers, providing the most profound proteomic data so far from ...

The impact of invasive alien species on threatened and endangered species: A geographic perspective
To help guide recovery efforts, we document how invasive alien species (IAS) impact threatened and endangered species (T&ES) under the Endangered Species Act. Our research shows that 58% of T&ES (n = 1,545) were impacted by IAS, with Pacific Island species (97%) facing greater threats from IAS compared to Mainland (38%) and Atlantic Island species (22%)

Abstract Premise The Cenozoic Macquarie Harbour Formation (MHF) hosts one of the oldest and southernmost post‐Cretaceous fossil plant assemblages in Australia. Coinciding with the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO) and predating the breakup of Australia from Antarctica, it offers critical data to study the diversity and extent of the Austral Polar ...

Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.

Summary Unlike ‘white rot’ (WR) wood‐decomposing fungi that remove lignin to access cellulosic sugars, ‘brown rot’ (BR) fungi selectively extract sugars and leave lignin behind. The relative frequency and distribution of these fungal types (decay modes) have not been thoroughly assessed at a global scale; thus, the fate of one‐third of Earth's ...

Bringing the forest back: Restoration priorities in Colombia
Abstract Aim Colombia has committed to ambitious forest restoration targets which include a 1 million ha Bonn Challenge commitment and 6.47–8.31 million ha (rehabilitation and restoration, respectively) under the National Restoration Plan. Determining where and how to implement programs to achieve these targets remains a significant challenge ...
