Biocrusts increase the resistance to warming‐induced increases in topsoil P pools
Our findings provide novel insights on the responses of soil P pools to warming and rainfall reduction, and highlight the importance of biocrusts as modulators of these responses in dryland ecosystems. Our results suggest that the observed negative impacts of warming on dryland biocrust communities will decrease their capacity to buffer changes in ...

Responses of New Zealand forest birds to management of introduced mammals
Abstract Over the past 1000 years New Zealand has lost 40–50% of its bird species, and over half of these extinctions are attributable to predation by introduced mammals. Populations of many extant forest bird species continue to be depredated by mammals, especially rats, possums, and mustelids.

MORPHOLOGY, FUNCTION OF SORI AND VARIATIONS OF THE LIFE CYCLE OF RUSTS
The organisms that are generically called rusts form an ample and complicated group. More than 100 genera that include about 6000 species are known today. In Brazil only about 1000 species belonging to 55 genera are known.
