Open‐land‐derived agroforestry and effects of abandonment of management of the main crop on ecosystem services and woody plant diversity

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1805-1816, September 2026.
Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...

Dominance of Picea glehnii in the Serpentine Forests of Hokkaido: Perspectives for an Ecological Understanding

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
We question why Picea glehnii dominates serpentine forests in Hokkaido. First, based on functional trait measurements and a comparison with another coniferous species present in the region, Abies sachalinensis, we report preliminary results consistent with better adaptation of P. glehnii to serpentine soils.

Why Fire Suppression Persists: Territorial Politics and the Criminalisation of Fire in India's Political Forests

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Why does fire suppression remain central to forest governance globally, despite the increasing recognition of fire's ecological and livelihood significance? This study examines the persistence of fire suppression in India, arguing that it continues not for ecological reasons but as a political technology of state territorial control.

From hindrance to indirect protection: Ant‐mediated enemy‐free space for gall midges (Cecidomyiidae) on Macaranga myrmecophytes (Euphorbiaceae)

open access: yesEntomological Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, September 2026.
Ant presence was associated with lower gall density on Macaranga beccariana, whereas trees lacking ant defense had more galls and showed different parasitism patterns. Results from this natural experiment suggest that plant‐ants may indirectly influence gall midges through their effects on multitrophic interactions.

Effects of Biochar and Nitrogen‐Enriched Biochar on Tree Growth in Scots Pine Stands

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Tree growth in middle‐aged Scots pine stands was unaffected by biochar alone, while nitrogen‐enriched biochar and conventional nitrogen fertilization resulted in comparable positive growth responses. ABSTRACT Biochar, a carbon‐rich product of pyrolysis, is increasingly considered for soil amendment and climate change mitigation due to its potential to ...

Evidence for a trade‐off between growth rate and xylem embolism resistance in 22 Eucalyptus species

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2407-2426, September 2026.
Examples of cross‐sectional images of branchlets at 4× and 40×. Summary Within the growth–survival trade‐off framework, embolism resistance is considered a contributor to survival, yet whether greater embolism resistance inherently limits growth remains unclear.

Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3096-3110, September 2026.
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

Lack of Hydraulic Acclimation in Response to Multiple Droughts and Recovery

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6931-6943, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Human‐caused climate change is expected to bring more frequent and extended droughts with shorter wet periods of relief in between for many regions of the world. Critical knowledge gaps remain around the extent to which tree species can acclimate physiologically to repeated droughts.
