Biodiversity Promotes Tree Growth during Succession in Subtropical Forest

PLoS ONE, 2013
يمكن أن تؤثر خسائر تنوع الأنواع النباتية على أداء النظام الإيكولوجي، حيث يكون انخفاض الإنتاجية الأولية هو التأثير الأكثر تكرارًا في التجمعات النباتية التجريبية، بما في ذلك مزارع الأشجار. لا يُعرف سوى القليل عن دور التنوع البيولوجي في النظم الإيكولوجية الطبيعية، بما في ذلك الغابات، على الرغم من أهميتها بالنسبة للدورات الكيميائية الحيوية والمناخ العالمي.

Much more than their fangs: Macroscopic anatomy of the brain of Bothrops moojeni Hoge 1966 (Squamata, Serpentes, Viperidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomical research has progressed considerably in several vertebrate lineages, yet studies of reptilian brain morphology remain markedly underdeveloped. Here we provide the first description of macroscopic brain anatomy and its ontogeny in the viperid Bothrops moojeni, based on a sample of seven individuals.

Paraburkholderia telluris sp. nov., isolated from subtropical forest soil

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2019
Strain DHOC27T is a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, light yellow-pigmented and rod-shaped bacterium isolated from the forest soil of Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, PR China. It grew at 4-37 °C (optimal 28-33 °C), pH 4.0-8.5 (optimal 4.5-6.0) and 0-1.5 (optimal 0-0.5) % (w/v) NaCl.

Adaptive Genomic Divergence Across Altitudes in Capsella bursa‐pastoris

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Genomic divergence was observed between high‐altitude and low‐altitude populations of Capsella bursa‐pastoris in China, consistent with an important role of ecological factors. Candidate adaptive loci associated with enhanced energy metabolism, photoprotection, and growth plasticity under altitudinal stress were identified.

Effects of Invasive Solidago canadensis and Biochar on the Remediation of Soil Cd Contamination and Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Life
Cadmium (Cd) contamination in agricultural soils threatens food security and exacerbates climate change through its impact on greenhouse gas (GHG) (CO2, N2O and CH4) emissions, in which N2O and CO2 are the dominant fluxes of the terrestrial carbon ...

Root nutrient capture and leaf resorption efficiency modulated by different influential factors jointly alleviated P limitation in Quercus acutissima across the North–South Transect of Eastern China

Forestry Research, 2022
Soil and climatic conditions are known to have close associations with plant morphological and stoichiometric traits at a regional scale along latitudinal gradients; however, how latitude drives biotic and abiotic factors affecting plant nutrient ...

Linking Aboveground Traits to Root Traits and Local Environment: Implications of the Plant Economics Spectrum. [PDF]

, 2019
The plant economics spectrum proposes that ecological traits are functionally coordinated and adapt along environmental gradients. However, empirical evidence is mixed about whether aboveground and root traits are consistently linked and which ...

Long‐term trends in parasite diversity and infection levels: approaches and patterns

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parasites exist in every ecosystem, affecting nearly all organisms and playing a complex role in human societies. On the one hand, they contribute substantially to biodiversity and support ecosystem stability by performing essential ecological functions.
