Crafting Colonial Companions: Zionist Botany in Palestine, 1900‐1930s**

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
In the early twentieth century, agricultural research played an important role in the Zionist movement's efforts to increase Palestine's productivity and to facilitate large‐scale Jewish settlement. Recent historiography has started to recognize the importance of agronomists and botanists as central actors in the broader project of Jewish‐Zionist ...

Functional Diversity and Oleaginous Potential of Fungal Strains From Hawaiian Soil Ecosystems

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi represent an important but underexplored resource for microbial lipid production, including nutritionally valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids. Hawaiian soils, shaped by volcanic parent materials and strong environmental gradients, provide a unique setting for discovering functionally diverse fungal strains with distinct metabolic traits.

Differential Elevational Diversity Between Overstory and Understory in Tropical Forests

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Tropical forest overstory and understory exhibit contrasting elevational α‐diversity patterns (unimodal vs. bimodal). Community differentiation is driven by species turnover of dominant rather than rare species, highlighting the need for vertically stratified conservation across the full elevational gradient.

Effects of Vegetation Cover and Rainfall Intensity on Sediment-Bound Nutrient Loss, Size Composition and Volume Fractal Dimension of Sediment Particles

, 2011
Vegetation and rainfall are two important factors affecting soil erosion and thus resulting in nutrient loss in the Chinese Loess Plateau. A field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of rainfall intensities (60, 100 and 140 mm h(-1) and ...

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual
