Our results highlight that prescribed burning in sub‐Mediterranean pine forests does not affect their resistance to PPM in the short term, either positively or negatively, indicating that it can be implemented to reduce wildfire hazard without influencing forest susceptibility to future PPM outbreaks.

Some Changes in Taxonomy of Pines (Pinus L.) Native to Turkey
Recent taxonomic studies and discussion lead us to overlook the taxonomic positions of the native Pinus L. taxa for Turkey. Based on the latest publications (especially Frankis, 2000; Farjon, 2005, 2010; Zsolt and István, 2010), herbarium and field ...

Post-fire management and recovery of a pine forest in Greece [PDF]
The effects of management after fire in <i>Pinus halepensis</i> forests were assessed in northern Greece. Seeding, logging and building of log barriers were applied in burned sites and compared to a control site.

ABSTRACT As drought impacts on forests intensify, evaluating the potential for adaptation is critical for predicting forest responses and the impacts of management strategies. We assessed phenotypic and genomic variation in western larch (Larix occidentalis Nutt.) populations to evaluate the potential for drought adaptation across its range.

High phylogenetic turnover magnifies evolutionary relatedness along bacterial primary succession
Abstract Current models of microbial primary succession postulate that stochasticity dominates the early stages of soil community assembly, generating phylogenetically random patterns that are lost as abiotic and biotic filters gain relevance. We hypothesized that, under severe environmental stress, abiotic filters may override stochasticity from early

Condensed tannin reactivity inhibition by internal rearrangements: Detection by CP-MAS 13C NMR
Tannin extracts were prepared from barks of maritime pine (Pinus maritimus), aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis), Norway spruce (Picea abies) and from a mixture of barks of different pine species (Pinus spp., namely 20% black pine (Pinus thunbergii)+ 30 ...

Abnormal Shoot and Leaf Formation in Some Native Pine Species
In many tree species, when abnormal shoot formation after fire, insect attack and grazing is being observed, this formation is not common in pine species and not well-known.

Community composition mediates interannual shifts in pollinators' roles within networks
Plant–pollinator networks are complex structures that describe interactions between plants and pollinators within ecological communities. Understanding how these networks are organized is crucial for the preservation of populations, communities, and ecosystem services, because network structure is linked to the function and resilience of communities ...

Fire buffers drought impacts on reproduction in a resprouting Mediterranean shrub
Fire and drought increasingly co‐occur, exposing plants to greater drought stress during post‐fire resprouting. Yet, the effect of this combination of disturbances on plant fitness remains poorly understood. Here, we examine how post‐fire resprouting influences reproductive success under drought conditions in the Mediterranean shrub Anthyllis ...

We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.
