From Grassland to Shrubland: Bryophytes as Sentinels of Woody Encroachment in Sub‐Mediterranean Calcareous Grasslands

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Woody plant encroachment alters bryophyte communities through compositional and functional turnover. Grasslands are dominated by small, acrocarpous, turf‐forming colonists, whereas shrublands are characterised by larger pleurocarpous perennial species with mat or weft growth forms.

Soil remineralization with silicate rock powder: nutrient effects on plant quality and ungulate foraging

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction Silicate rock powder (SRP), a slow‐release mineral additive, is increasingly used as a potential mitigation measure against soil acidification in natural areas. SRP addition has led to a higher soil base saturation and small increases in soil nutrient availability.

A plant‐centric view of class B flavin‐dependent monooxygenase evolution and diversity

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 5, September 2026.
SUMMARY Flavin‐dependent monooxygenases (FMOs) are ancient enzymes present throughout all kingdoms of life. FMOs utilize flavin‐based cofactors to incorporate an oxygen atom into their substrate, altering its chemical properties. Class B FMOs are enriched throughout the plant kingdom, catalyzing essential reactions for plant development and defense ...

Wildfire size, severity and timing vary with dominant vegetation in open landscapes in England and Wales

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
We combined field research and satellite data to learn more about wildfire regimes in England and Wales. Our results show significant variation in fire size, severity, and timing between areas dominated by different vegetation types. Abstract Wildfires are an increasing concern worldwide, as climate change extends periods with the necessary conditions ...

Tree canopy shapes the survival of oak and beech saplings during the regeneration stage along an elevation‐driven temperature gradient

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 7, July 2026.
Forests are complex, multilayered systems in which canopy cover strongly influences understorey microclimates. Here, we show that the temperature‐buffering effect of the forest canopy affects tree regeneration differently among species along an elevation gradient in the French Pyrenees.

The missing woodland story: Implications of 1700 years of stand‐scale change on ‘naturalness’ and managing remnant broadleaved woodlands

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1572-1587, June 2026.
Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.
