Which, when, and where traits matter: functional trait‐mediated species associations shift with microenvironmental and climatic variation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2468-2481, September 2026.
Community‐level fitted relationship between spatial association Lij and trait dissimilarity (tDij) at the fine spatial scale (r = 40 mm; where r represents the radius around individuals of the focal species). Summary Predicting coexistence in species‐rich plant communities requires understanding the role of functional traits in species interactions and

“Humanizar”: aprendizajes sobre alteridad, salud y futuro en una experiencia de investigación compartida

open access: yesThe Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 31, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The visit to Bogotá of a fééeneminaa (Muinane) friend, Célimo Nejedeka Jifichíu, and in particular, his work in researching and transmitting traditional health knowledge, offer the pretext to navigate the relationship between elements that at first glance seem distant from each other: indigenous imaginaries about otherness, their visions of ...

Global insular leaf size shifts follow the island rule, independently of insect herbivory and macroclimate

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
We found a positive, non‐linear, saturating relationship between mainland and island leaf sizes, reflecting an island rule‐like pattern. Small‐leaved mainland species tend to develop larger leaves on islands, while this effect weakens for larger‐leaved species, a pattern consistent across both conspecific and congeneric comparisons. Abstract The island

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 ...

Producción y calidad nutricional de Guazuma ulmifolia en bancos forrajeros de bosque húmedo tropical

open access: yesRevista U.D.C.A Actualidad & Divulgación Científica
Los sistemas ganaderos basan su alimentación en el monocultivo de pasturas, las cuales en las épocas críticas reducen la producción y calidad nutricional, además son más vulnerables a los nuevos escenarios climáticos.
