Improving Prediction of Heterotrophic Respiration in Response to Altered Precipitation
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Soil heterotrophic respiration (Rh) is a key process in the global carbon (C) cycle, strongly influenced by interactions between soil temperature and moisture. It is well documented how soil temperature regulates Rh. However, temperature interacts with soil moisture to regulate Rh via dynamic and complex microbial mechanisms, leading to ...

Isopod feces–mediated shifts in germination timing enhance seedling establishment
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1909-1919, February 2026.Summary Seedlings are particularly vulnerable to herbivory because their defenses are underdeveloped and their capacity to tolerate damage is limited. However, how seedlings cope with such threats remains poorly understood. Animal feces may provide important chemical cues that influence plant responses to herbivory.
