Abstract Climate change is intensifying the frequency and severity of extreme heat events. Despite the rising frequency of compound heatwaves (CHWs)—concurrent daytime and nighttime heat—evidence regarding cause‐specific risks and socioeconomic disparities remains limited.

ABSTRACT One key challenge in characterizing plant communities is determining the relative abundance of distinct species in root biomass. Metabarcoding is increasingly used to estimate a species' proportion in root mass based on its proportion in sample reads, but results have been mixed in accurately converting sequencing output to species mass in ...

ABSTRACT Documenting accelerating global biodiversity decline requires monitoring tools that can operate across large spatial scales and repeated timeframes. Analysis of airborne environmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging method used to track species distributions, but it is unknown whether airborne eDNA retains coherent ecological signals across ...

Neighbour Effects and Dynamics of Plant‐Associated Microbiomes in a Strip‐Crop System
Distinct plant species differentially affect the assembly of host‐associated microbial communities in a strip‐crop system. Crop neighbouring effects on the microbiomes were highest at the edge of the strips, which further reveals reduced leaf pathogens.

Optimising Defoliation Frequency and Intensity to Enhance Forage Accumulation in Annual Ryegrass
ABSTRACT To increase grazing efficiency, it is necessary to understand morphogenetic responses and how they drive forage harvest. Our objective was to evaluate defoliation frequency (time between defoliations required for the expansion of 2, 3 and 4 leaves) and intensity (low: maintenance of 50% stubble height; intermediate: maintenance of 25% stubble ...
