Resilience for restoration: Insights from the Northern Great Plains native seed system

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Native plants are essential to ecological restoration and culturally important to local and Tribal communities, yet native seed systems across the United States (US) struggle to meet restoration demand. In the US Northern Great Plains, land conversion of native ecosystems means restoration potential is high but constrained by an underdeveloped

Seeing both heritage and resource: A relational approach to forest owners' decision‐making

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The loss of forest habitats calls for a change in the intensity and scale at which forests are managed. With voluntary policies on the rise, there is greater focus on understanding the motivations of private forest owners. While private forest management is likely driven by both economic and non‐economic factors, previous literature has paid ...

The shared benefits of fallen fruits: A novel mechanism stabilizing a nursery pollination mutualism between Sambucus and kateretid beetles

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.

Unveiling the health‐promoting potential of Sudanese sorghum landraces: A legacy rooted in Eastern Sudan, Kassala, and the Red Sea States

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Sorghum is a staple food for hundreds of millions of people in dry regions worldwide, and improving its nutritional quality is vital for global food and health security under climate change. In this study, we evaluated traditional Sudanese sorghum varieties grown in eastern deltas to better understand their natural health‐promoting properties. We found
