maxRgain—An R Package for Maximising Genetic Gains in Polyclonal Selection

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyclonal selection, which was developed in the context of ancient grapevine varieties, uses intravarietal variability to improve the resilience and sustainability of viticulture. Based on quantitative genetics and linear mixed models, this approach predicts genotypic effects to select a group of clones that, as a whole, satisfy target ...

Ozone Susceptibility of Tropical Tree Species

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tropical forests account for approximately 60% of global terrestrial photosynthesis, yet their function into the future may be compromised by rising ground‐level ozone (O3) pollution. Although O3 is known to impair plant productivity, the physiological mechanisms underlying interspecific variation in O3 susceptibility—especially among tropical

Effects of Atmospheric CO2 Levels on the Susceptibility of Maize to Diverse Pathogens

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rising atmospheric CO2 has significant implications for crop productivity and food security. Based on studies in C3 plants, elevated CO2 (eCO2) can shape plant‐pathogen interactions, although the outcomes are often variable. The question of how eCO2 influences immunity and disease development in C4 plants, such as the globally important cereal

Hydrological restoration of coastal wetlands: optimizing site selection and implementation strategies

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands, despite their importance in providing ecosystem services like carbon sequestration, water quality improvement, and coastal protection, have suffered extensive degradation and loss in the past two centuries. Hydrological restoration of these degraded ecosystems presents an emerging opportunity for mitigating and ...

Limited effects of structural restoration on ecosystem functioning in an urban tropical stream

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Hydromorphological restoration through structural interventions is commonly used to mitigate urbanization impacts on lotic freshwater systems, but their effects on ecosystem functioning in urban tropical streams remain unexplored.

Estimating the greenhouse gas emission abatement potential of tidal introduction in Australia

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands store higher amounts of organic carbon and sequester it at higher rates in soil relative to terrestrial ecosystems. However, they have been extensively drained, excavated, or modified, often to allow agriculture. Restoring degraded coastal wetlands can be an important contribution to climate change mitigation by ...
