Nests in trees are as good as or better than cliffs for two formerly persecuted, primarily cliff nesting eagles in Spain: a cautionary tale in defining the habitat of range‐restricted or threatened species

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 4, July 2026.
In the late‐20th century, golden and Bonelli's eagles suffered population declines on the Iberian Peninsula, partly due to human persecution. Habitat assessments – especially for Bonelli's eagles – always found or assumed strong associations with cliffs that provided nesting sites.

Southern Iberia as a Hotspot of Wild Grapevine Genetic Diversity

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The commercial interest of grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.) has prompted numerous studies on their origin and genetic resources in the context of global change. However, genomic‐scale information on diversity patterns and genetic structure in southwestern Europe remains scarce.

Yield models for predicting aboveground ectomycorrhizal fungal productivity in Pinus sylvestris and Pinus pinaster stands of northern Spain

Forest Ecosystems, 2019
Background Predictive models shed light on aboveground fungal yield dynamics and can assist decision-making in forestry by integrating this valuable non-wood forest product into forest management planning. However, the currently existing models are based

The Evolution of Hutchinsonian Climatic Niche Hypervolumes in Gymnosperms

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The niche is a fundamental concept in theoretical and experimental ecology and is used to describe a wide range of ecological processes from species' interactions with the environment to community assemblies. A common way to represent the niche is through a multidimensional geometry known as the Hutchinsonian niche hypervolume.

The effects of fire severity on ectomycorrhizal colonization and morphometric features in Pinus pinaster Ait. seedlings

Forest Systems, 2016
Aim of the study: Mycorrhizal fungi in Mediterranean forests play a key role in the complex process of recovery after wildfires. A broader understanding of an important pyrophytic species as Pinus pinaster and its fungal symbionts is thus necessary for ...
