Plant conservation in a changing Mediterranean world
The Mediterranean is one of five climatic regions on the planet characterised by a prolonged summer drought, exceptional plant diversity and high rates of endemism. We provide a framework to link the ecology of plant species conservation in the context of rapid and extreme climate deregulation to a philosophical typology of temporal attitudes (i.e ...

Preliminary genetic barcodes for ash (Fraxinus) species and generation of new wide hybrids
Societal Impact Statement The world‐wide diversity of ash trees includes genetic information encoding resistance to the ash dieback fungus and the emerald ash borer beetle, which are currently devastating ash populations in Europe and North America. In order to mobilise this genetic diversity in conventional breeding programmes, we need to be able to ...

A large‐scale citizen science study involving thousands of cowslip (Primula veris) observations from all over Europe revealed an unexpected prevalence of S‐morphs over L‐morphs, which was influenced by climatic as well as land use factors. Furthermore, general morph ratios were often unbalanced with the strongest shifts occurring in smaller populations.

Extreme rain‐on‐snow events forming basal‐ice can shape high Arctic plant communities as strongly as summer warming. Icing delays soil warming and early growth but compensatory responses follow, at the cost of reproduction. Summer warming offsets most icing impacts, enhancing growth and reversing phenological delays, though inflorescence remains ...
