Range and Elevational Shifts of Mistletoes Under Future Climate Change Scenarios. [PDF]
Mistletoes are particularly vulnerable to climate change because of their obligate dependence on host plants. We investigated how climate change will alter the distribution of suitable habitat of Mesoamerican Psittacanthus mistletoes. Species differences were found in distribution with northward and upward shifts accompanied by significant range size ...

Assisted Phytostabilization of Mine-Tailings with Prosopis laevigata (Fabaceae) and Biochar. [PDF]
Phytoremediation is a cost-effective technique to remediate heavy metal (HM) polluted sites. However, the toxic effects of HM can limit plant establishment and development, reducing phytoremediation effectiveness. Therefore, the addition of organic amendments to mine wastes, such as biochar, improves the establishment of plants and reduces the ...
