Stem water content predicts drought‐induced mortality in tropical semiarid species

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Hydraulic Failure is one of the primary mechanisms underlying plant mortality during drought. Hydraulic failure occurs when the plant's xylem, under water stress, crosses a critical percentage of loss of xylem hydraulic conductivity (PLC) threshold, which causes the ...

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Spatial Patterns of Avian Stable Isotopes Reveal Ecological Impacts of Climate and Land‐Use Change

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Increased feather δ15N values with pasture coverage reveal an elevated baseline δ15N in grazing landscapes, while broader isotopic niches in farmland habitats reflect agricultural expansion's significant influence on resource use patterns of the avian community.

Rapid non‐destructive assessment of leaf water status with low‐cost transmittance meters

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Tools for more efficiently managing agricultural production and the use of limited water resources are required in the context of a growing global population, while the increasing threat posed by droughts and wildfires necessitates improved methods for risk assessment, forecasting and early warning. Quantifying leaf water content is central to

Evidence for positive population‐level responses but not individual performance of sycamore aphids under elevated CO2

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
The abundance and density of three common sycamore aphids increased under elevated CO2, although this was only statistically significant for Drepanosiphum platanoidis. The number of nymphs produced by individual D. platanoidis alates isolated in clip cages was not significantly affected, suggesting that population level response was not driven by ...
