Veronica paczoskiana is no more than a pine forest ecotype of V. spicata that evolved independently in forest‐steppes of Ukraine and the Altai region

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The Eurasian steppe area has been a dynamic vegetation biome during the Pleistocene with its repeated cycles of forest advances and retreats. Such a scenario allows the evolution of ecotypes at the ecotone with the potential for parallel evolution in different parts of the distribution area.

Recurrent drought amplifies drought impacts and increases seasonal synchrony in mountain grassland communities

Oikos, EarlyView.
Climate change increases the recurrence of drought events with strong repercussions on grassland ecosystems. While the effects of single drought events on ecosystem structure and functioning are well understood, it is largely unknown whether and how recurrent drought events modify ecosystem responses to subsequent drought.

Different from the start: key dimensions of seedling traits of central European temperate grassland species

Oikos, EarlyView.
Plant traits and their tradeoffs are major determinants of plant functions. Although trait‐based frameworks should apply to plant functioning at any life stage, they have been primarily established for adult plants. Therefore, we lack comprehensive trait‐based studies of seedlings across multiple species to prove which key dimensions of trait variation

Whole‐seedling trait adjustments of mountain birch under contrasting environmental conditions

Oikos, EarlyView.
Warming temperatures can promote arctic tree seedling establishment and growth, but these effects depend on the environmental context and the seedlings' capacity to acquire limiting resources. Here, we tested how temperature, soil properties, and the presence of a neighbouring shrub influence seedling growth rates.

Time tells: plasticity and developmental asynchrony underlie trait variation in a dune‐building grass

Oikos, EarlyView.
Habitat‐modifying plants engineer landscapes through plant‐environment feedbacks. The strength of these feedbacks is determined by above‐ and below‐ground traits shaping landscape morphology. Besides interspecific differences, recent findings highlight that intraspecific trait variation, such as shoot density, can also influence landscape morphology ...
