Synergistic Regulation of Soil Function and Wind Erosion Resistance by Sand Barriers, Vegetation, and Artificial Biological Crust in the Tengger Desert

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian desertification poses a critical threat to ecosystem stability in arid regions worldwide. Although the combination of sand barriers and vegetation has been widely applied for sand fixation, its long‐term effectiveness is constrained by barrier degradation, slow natural development of biological soil crusts (BSCs), and the resulting ...

Pupal traits and adult emergence in the pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) are affected by pupal density

European Journal of Entomology, 2019
The expectation is that the phenology of an herbivore is influenced by abiotic factors and its own population density during development. In this study, we investigated how the pupal density affected the pupal traits and emergence of Thaumetopoea ...

Mixed Litter Decomposition Drives Functional Gene Rearrangement in the Microbial Carbon Cycle

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how mixed‐species litter decomposition regulates microbial communities and carbon cycling is vital for guiding ecosystem restoration and climate change mitigation, as it is a key process for nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration. A 15‐month field experiment compared single‐species (Pinus sylvestris var.

Post‐Fire Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics: Decline and Recovery Over Two Decades

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfire can significantly alter soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics in forest ecosystems, with complex temporal patterns following fire events. However, research on post‐fire SOC recovery remains limited, particularly in dry‐warm valley regions that are prone to frequent forest fires.

Local scale variations in soil organic carbon sequestration in Lesser Himalayan coniferous and mixed forests: implications for sustainability

Journal of Ecology and Environment
Background: Soil carbon sequestration is a fundamental mechanism for mitigating climate change by capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Soils can store more carbon than both vegetation and the atmosphere combined.

Near‐T2T genome assembly of Erigeron sumatrensis provides insights into polyploid evolution and the herbicidal efficiency of HPPD inhibitors

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
The near‐T2T genome assembly of Erigeron sumatrensis reveals an allohexaploid origin, evolution, and the interaction between the herbicidal target of the HPPD family and mesotrione. Abstract Species of Erigeron, members of the family Asteraceae, have invaded and adapted to agricultural fields and uncultivated habitats worldwide. Erigeron sumatrensis is
