Trait responses to competition are mostly parallel among competitor plants but can cause convergence or divergence in key traits

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2830-2842, September 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants competing for resources exhibit different traits than plants which are not. Phenotypic plasticity can shape competition by altering trait differences between competitors.

Functional traits can explain coordinated seedling responses to drought and freezing stress

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2861-2875, September 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Limited plant establishment creates demographic bottlenecks that can alter vegetation trajectories in changing environments, yet it is unclear how common eco‐evolutionary indicators of plant strategy shape early response to key stressors.

Clonal Expansion Accounts for Most Post‐Disturbance Proliferation of a Dominant Temperate Liana, Wisteria floribunda, Across a Fragmented Forest Landscape

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Across all sampled ramets in a fragmented forest landscape, 83% were clonal, indicating that clonal expansion accounted for most of the present population structure of Wisteria floribunda. Compared with a continuous old‐growth forest, the fragmented forest showed substantially greater clonal dominance and spatial coverage by genets.

Competition Between Grasses and Khaya ivorensis A. Chev. During Initial Growth: Physiological and Nutritional Aspects

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Coexistence with weeds negatively affects growth, physiological, and nutritional variables of K. ivorensis in the initial phase of development. Coexistence with M. maximus is more harmful to the development of K. ivorensis seedlings compared to other grasses studied.

Blind Spots in Traditional Approaches to Conservation Prioritization in a Climate Change Context

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change affects biodiversity faster than conservation assessments can be conducted. This issue calls for approaches that support decisions on conservation prioritization, such as species phylogenetic relationships and diversity and endemism metrics. However, these traditional approaches often neglect some important aspects, limiting
