Drying suppresses fine root production to 1 m depths and alters root traits in four distinct tropical forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1992-2009, February 2026.
Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Toward a functional understanding of novel fire regimes in tropical forests

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use alterations are driving forest fires to unprecedented frequencies and intensities worldwide. Even wet tropical forests—historically rarely subjected to fire—are increasingly experiencing fire disturbances. The impact of wildfires on these forests is likely large, since many of their tree species are not adapted to ...

Strong scale‐dependent relationships between fine‐root function and soil properties uncovered with spatially coupled sampling

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 6, Page 2506-2521, June 2025.
Summary Substantial fine‐root trait variation is found at fine spatial scales but rarely linked to edaphic variation. We assessed the spatial scales of variation in fine‐root traits and adjacent soils using a spatially coupled, nested sampling scheme along a fertility gradient in a seasonally dry tropical forest tree, Handroanthus ochraceus.

Evaluating endophyte‐rich leaves and leaf functional traits for protection of tropical trees against natural enemies

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 371-389, February 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants use physical barriers and chemical compounds to defend themselves against natural enemies. For instance, tough leaves are considered to be better defended than soft leaves, part of a spectrum of defences defined by functional traits such as leaf chemistry ...

A high‐resolution model of the grapevine leaf morphospace predicts synthetic leaves

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 133-146, January 2025.
Grapevine leaves are emblematic of the strong visual associations people make with plants. Leaf shape is immediately recognizable at a glance, and therefore, this is used to distinguish grape varieties. In an era of computationally enabled machine learning–derived representations of reality, we can revisit how we view and use the shapes and forms that ...

Drought effects in Mediterranean forests are not alleviated by diversity‐driven water source partitioning

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 9, Page 2107-2122, September 2024.
Tree species diversity promotes below‐ground water source partitioning in mixed oak and pine stands, potentially reducing competition for water in more diverse ecosystems. Yet, these results show that it is insufficient to buffer the adverse impacts of severe droughts on above‐ground tree carbon and water use, leading to higher water stress, especially

Plant‐based meat analogues marketed in Catalonia: analysis of contaminants, essential elements, microbiological and physicochemical status, dietary intake estimation and health risk assessment

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 2, Issue 3, July 2024.
Abstract The latest barometer of food safety in Catalonia conducted by the Catalan Food Safety Agency (ACSA for its initials in Catalan) in 2021 shows that 28.7% of the population consumes meat analogues (substitutes). The main reasons for consuming this type of food are animal welfare, followed by environmental and health reasons.
