Soil legacy effects on a temperate tree species depend on the mycorrhizal types and phylogenetic distance of the conditioning trees

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2602-2616, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Associations of trees with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi often shape distinct microbial communities in soils. Whether this distinction can create different soil legacies and to what extent such legacies are correlated to phylogenetic ...

Alleviation of phosphorus rather than nitrogen limitation driven by permafrost and landscape effects on Dahurian larch forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2590-2601, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Permafrost thaw is reshaping nutrient dynamics in boreal forests, but its impacts on tree nutrient limitation and functional strategies remain poorly understood. Clarifying these responses is crucial for predicting the response of boreal forests to climate change.

Tree regeneration following natural disturbance and harvesting indicates challenges maintaining forest composition and tree species diversity in northern USA forests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Our work establishes that previously observed challenges in advance regeneration contribute to poor recovery following harvests and natural disturbances in northern USA forests. Shifts towards lower severity harvesting in the region may be exacerbating post‐disturbance regeneration challenges, ultimately leading to low tree species richness and novel ...

Hypervolume Trait Spaces Reveal Similarities but Also Functional Differentiation Across Riparian, Roadside and Field Margin Habitats

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To characterize plant species pools and functional diversity of three common linear habitats—riparian corridors, roadsides and field margins—and to evaluate their potential roles in regional biodiversity conservation, particularly regarding invasive and threatened species.

Living on the edge – physiological tolerance to frost and drought explains range limits of 35 European tree species

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Species distribution models are key to evaluate how climate change threatens European forests and tree species distributions. However, current models struggle to integrate ecophysiological processes. Mechanistic models are complex and have high parameter requirements.

Biogeography of Bursaphelenchus Species Driven by Climate, Vectors and Hosts: Implications for Forest Pathology Under Climate Change

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wood‐inhabiting nematodes of the genus Bursaphelenchus are a group with significant ecological and economic impacts on global forest ecosystems. This review aims to update current knowledge on their spatial distribution, host‐vector associations and the factors driving species expansion under the framework of climate change.
