Uncovering a new species of Hemileccinum (Boletaceae, Basidiomycota) from India with morphological characteristics and multi‐gene molecular phylogeny

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
While undertaking macrofungal forays to several forested areas of Uttarakhand (India), a noteworthy and previously unknown species of Hemileccinum was unveiled. This species is proposed here as Hemileccinum indicum sp. nov. It is presented with both morphological characteristics and multigene molecular phylogenetic analysis.

Consumption of atmospheric methane by soil in a lowland broadleaf mixed forest

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2018
Soils of forest ecosystems can release or consume methane (CH4) depending on their specific hydrological regime. Our study reported the consumption of CH4 by soil in a lowland broadleaf mixed temperate forest in the Czech Republic (Central Europe).

Iron Age to Medieval entomogamous vegetation and Rhinolophus hipposideros roost in south-eastern Wales (UK) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Karst cave systems are well developed in Wales (UK) and, in some instances, constitute important bat roosts. Ogof Draenen, near Blaenavon in south-east Wales, is the most recent major cave discovery (1994) with already > 70 km of passages explored ...

DNA barcode analyses and taxonomy reveal two new species of Inocybe from Pine and Oak forests of Pakistan

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Here we describe two new species of Inocybe from pine forests of Pakistan; I. hazarensisand I. shimlaensis. Morphological and molecular data show that these species have not been described before and hence need to be described as new. Both species are smooth‐spored and pruinose only in the apical part of the stipe.

Overwintering evergreen oaks reverse typical relationships between leaf traits in a species spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
The leaf economics spectrum has given us a fundamental understanding of the species variations in leaf variables. Across plant species, tight correlations among leaf mass per area (LMA), mass-based nitrogen (Nm) and photosynthetic rate (Am) and leaf ...

Frugivory‐mediated trophic cascades: how apex predators can shape the recruitment of a fleshy‐fruited tree

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The recovery of large carnivores offers unique opportunities to study their cascading impacts on plant population dynamics. Medium‐sized carnivores, both prey and seed dispersers, are suppressed by apex predators, indirectly increasing seed‐eating rodent's populations and potentially altering plant establishment.

Repeated summer drought and re-watering during the first growing year of oak (Quercus petraea) delay autumn senescence and bud burst in the following spring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Climate change predicts harsher summer droughts for mid-latitudes in Europe. To enhance our understanding of the putative impacts on forest regeneration, we studied the response of oak seedlings (Quercus petraea) to water deficit.
