Ecological IndicatorsForests deliver multiple ecosystem functions and services (i.e. multifunctionality) of great importance to society. However, such multifunctionality capacity is threatened by global warming, especially in Mediterranean forests, which are at high risk of ...

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.

Cold hardiness mechanisms and modeling: existing approaches and future avenues
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Cold hardiness models are useful tools to predict cold damage in plants, such as those produced by unseasonal temperature cycles or by increased cold exposure. Although development of these models started about five decades ago, their applications remain limited.

A Plant‐Based Platform for the Production of Bark Beetle Pheromones
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bark beetle species of the genera Ips and Dendroctonus represent a threat to forests in both North America and Europe. Under normal circumstances, these beetles recycle dying trees into nutrients, but under certain conditions, growing populations can overcome healthy tree defenses and cause severe economic loss in forestry.

Positive mixture effects in pine–oak forests during drought are context‐dependent
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Mixture effects in drought‐stressed pine‐oak forests are context‐dependent, with Gambel oak and ponderosa pine benefiting from their complementarity under semi‐arid conditions. Abstract The increasing severity and frequency of droughts will play a pivotal role in shaping future forest ecosystems worldwide.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction A primary goal of habitat restoration is the return of both taxonomic and functional diversity to support ecosystem resilience and functioning. This study assessed how insect functional biodiversity (focusing on beetles [Coleoptera] and ants [Formicidae]) responds to invasive pine (Pinus spp.) removal, in a Mediterranean‐type ...
