Drought responses of European beech varied along regional environmental gradients, with greater resistance and resilience at warmer, drier sites. Tree‐ring δ13C and Ca increased during drought but were not related to growth responses. Contrasting responses among admixed species highlight the potential resilience benefits of mixed forests.

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Detecting change in vegetation condition using high resolution multispectral imagery [PDF]
Remote sensing of vegetation condition using high resolution digital multispectral imagery (DMSI) is an option for land managers interested in quantifying the distribution and extent of dieback in native forest.

Six decades of vegetation resurveys in Rajhenavski Rog old‐growth forest (Slovenia, Dinaric Mountains) revealed increasing Fagus sylvatica dominance, persistent Abies alba decline, and reduced herb‐layer cover. Species richness remained stable, but beta diversity declined, indicating floristic homogenization driven mainly by turnover.

FcStuA from Fusarium culmorum controls wheat foot and root rot in a toxin dispensable manner [PDF]
Fusarium culmorum is one of the most harmful pathogens of durum wheat and is the causal agent of foot and root rot (FRR) disease. F. culmorum produces the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) that is involved in the pathogenic process.

ABSTRACT Heatwaves are intensifying worldwide, often coinciding with high vapour pressure deficit (VPD) and soil drought. Yet, how temperate tree species tolerate these combined stresses remains elusive. Using single‐tree gas‐exchange chambers, we examined the response of leaf gas exchange and thermoregulation of three broadleaved tree species to a ...

Crown rot symptoms common in corn [PDF]
The seedling disease problems that have plagued some fields in Iowa have evolved into crown rot problems. Seedling pathogens can rot seeds, prevent emergence, and kill emerged seedlings, but some infections are not lethal and the surviving plants are ...

Disease suppressive soilless culture systems; characterisation of its microflora [PDF]
The trend in glasshouse horticulture has always been to start culture systems as aseptic as possible. However, several root diseases still cause problems under these conditions. The present paper shows the importance of the microflora to suppress Pythium

Detecting Chestnut Ink Diseases Through the Dog's Sense of Smell: From Laboratory to Forest
Canine olfactory abilities were used to distinguish chestnut ink disease caused by Phytophthora spp. A trained detection dog, conditioned with polymer tubes carrying pathogen‐derived volatile organic compounds (VOCs), first detected Phytophthora‐infected roots under controlled conditions and then in chestnut orchards, demonstrating a non‐invasive ...

Confirmation of QTL mapping and marker validation for partial seedling resistance to crown rot in wheat line '2-49' [PDF]
We have tested the efficacy of putative microsatellite single sequence repeat (SSR) markers, previously identified in a 2-49 (Gluyas Early/Gala) × Janz doubled haploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) population, as being linked to partial seedling resistance ...
