The impact of herbivores on the natural regeneration of temperate deciduous woodland [PDF]

, 1999
Many studies have reported deficient or intermittent patterns of natural regeneration in temperate deciduous woodland. The present study aimed to assess the relative impact of herbivore-mediated plant mortality on the natural regeneration dynamics of ...

Biology of the Gall Midge Spanolepis selloanae (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae), a Candidate Biological Control Agent of the Invasive Grass Cortaderia selloana

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Spanolepis selloanae (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) infests Cortaderia selloana (pampas grass). It lays eggs in the spikelets, where larvae feed on female parts. The high prevalence of the midge and its combined impact in seed production, condition and viability strongly reduces the reproductive output of C. selloana.

Soil conditions and seeding rates influence outcomes of first‐year wiregrass (Aristida beyrichiana) restoration

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
The restoration of herbaceous groundcover species is a challenge in old‐growth grasslands and savannas. Many species persist via below‐ground structures and bud banks, and seed production is often variable.

Unravelling the Intraspecific Variation in Drought Responses in Seedlings of European Black Pine (Pinus Nigra J.F. Arnold)

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding intraspecific variation in drought tolerance is essential for predicting the adaptive capacity of forest species under climate change. Yet, the molecular basis of this variation remains poorly understood in ecologically and economically important conifers.

Long‐term effects of annual mowing on plant diversity, community composition, and temporal stability in wet grasslands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Wet grasslands and fens are biodiversity‐rich ecosystems whose structure and functioning are shaped by disturbance, productivity, and hydrological conditions. Their persistence depends on management. Although mowing is widely used to maintain these habitats, its long‐term effects on species diversity and community composition ...

Livelihood‐oriented interventions and gender considerations of 25 years of social‐ecological peatland restoration in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We examined how tropical peatland restoration initiatives have evolved over 25 years, particularly in their approach to livelihood contributions and women's participation. Objectives Using the Sustainable Livelihoods Framework (SLF), we analyze the peatland‐restoration initiatives based on project documents, examining their short‐

Optimizing mowing strategies for controlling Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. in roadside habitats

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Road verges provide refuge habitats for semi‐natural grassland species but can also facilitate the spread of invasive alien plant species such as Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl., which negatively impacts biodiversity. Objectives We studied how different mowing regimes affect L.

Leaf economics and tissue turnover dynamics in four perennial C4 grasses

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Warm‐season perennial grasses are important components of pasture systems in the United States, yet their functional characteristics and relationships with productive attributes remain poorly understood. This study evaluated tissue flow dynamics and leaf economic traits in four C4 forage grasses: eastern gamagrass (Tripsacum dactyloides (L.) L.
