Shrub encroachment influences root traits and mycorrhization in subalpine grasslands

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2237-2249, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Shrub encroachment into grasslands modifies ecosystem functions, species composition and soil properties. However, knowledge about its detailed below‐ground effects and specifically on concurrent changes in root traits and mycorrhizal associations is missing. We studied

Succession and Carbon Source Utilization of Fungi Associated With Hylocomium splendens on a Subalpine Forest Floor

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
The present study examined the succession and carbon source utilization of fungi associated with moss profiles and to identify the metabolic traits that were linked to the successional status. We showed that the successional status of microfungi in decomposing tissues of Hylocomium splendens was affected not by the taxonomic group but by the potential ...

Genetic Diversity and Structure of the Rare Coastal Herb Swertia noguchiana (Gentianaceae) Across Island Populations

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
Nuclear SNP data (MIG‐seq) revealed clear genetic differentiation and low genetic diversity among island populations of Swertia noguchiana. The results suggest population divergence with limited recent gene flow. ABSTRACT Islands play a key role in plant diversification, often harboring endemic species with limited genetic connectivity to mainland ...

The diversity of fungi colonizing necrotic inflorescence buds of rhododendron (Rhododendron L.)

Acta Agrobotanica, 2013
The infection of rhododendron (Rhododendron L.) inflorescence buds caused by pathogenic fungi induces its browning, withering, and dieback. The identification of fungi causing the infection of rhododendron inflorescence buds can be a reason for creating ...

Pangenome analysis reveals the genetic mechanism underlying high‐altitude adaptation in Qinghai–Xizang (Tibet) Plateau Rhododendron

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 2166-2188, July 2026.
Pan‐genome analysis reveals that high‐altitude Rhododendron species resist alpine cold stress by rapidly sensing and engaging the chilling response pathway and genes that directly and indirectly protect the plant from UV radiation. Heritable genomic features such as long terminal repeats contribute to the adaptive diversification of Rhododendron ...

The Comprehensive Root Metabolite–Rhizomicrobiota Response Patterns of Rhododendron delavayi (R. delavayi) to Waterlogging Stress and Post–Waterlogging Recovery

Horticulturae
Waterlogging is a critical abiotic stressor that significantly impacts plant growth. Plants under waterlogging stress release metabolic signals that recruit rhizosphere microorganisms and enhance stress resistance.

Drought and Freezing Compromise Woody‐Plant Functioning in High Mountain Ecosystems Under Mediterranean Climate: The Case of Bencomia exstipulata

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Bencomia exstipulata is a broad‐leaved evergreen shrub endemic to the high‐altitude harsh landscapes of the Canary Islands. Whether the extremely reduced distribution of its wild specimens (at around 2000 m a.s.l. in the National Parks of ‘El Teide’ and ‘Caldera de Taburiente’) responds to specific microclimatic needs remains undetermined ...

Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Analyses Reveal Differing Phytohormone Regulation in Rhododendron Cultivars in Response to Azalea Lace Bug (Stephanitis pyrioides)

Horticulturae
Rhododendron spp., valuable ornamental plants, frequently suffer from infestations of the azalea lace bug (Stephanitis pyrioides Scott, ALB). However, the hormonal regulatory mechanisms underlying Rhododendron defense against ALB are not well understood.
