The complete chloroplast genome of Androsace erecta (Primulaceae) and its phylogenetic implication
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 With about 153 species, the genus Androsace (Primulaceae) is known for its horticultural and economic importance. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome of Androsace erecta Maximowicz, a morphologically distinct species of Sect ...

Nest predation in Afrotropical forest fragments shaped by inverse edge effects, timing of nest initiation and vegetation structure [PDF]
, 2014 High levels of nest predation influence the population dynamics of many tropical birds, especially when deforestation alters nest predator communities. The consequences of tropical forest fragmentation on nest predation, however, remain poorly understood,

Degradation and forgone removals increase the carbon impact of intact forest loss by 626% [PDF]
, 2019 Intact tropical forests, free from substantial anthropogenic influence, store and sequester large amounts of atmospheric carbon but are currently neglected in international climate policy.

Diversity did not influence soil water use of tree clusters in a temperate mixed forest [PDF]
Web Ecology, 2013 Compared to monocultures, diverse ecosystems are often expected to show more comprehensive resource use. However, with respect to diversity–soil-water-use relationships in forests, very little information is available. We analysed soil water uptake

Ecological stoichiometry of the epiphyte community in a subtropical forest canopy
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Epiphytes in tree canopies make a considerable contribution to the species diversity, aboveground biomass, and nutrient pools in forest ecosystems. However, the nutrient status of epiphytes and their possible adaptations to nutrient deficiencies in the ...

Abiotic controls on macroscale variations of humid tropical forest height [PDF]
, 2016 Spatial variation of tropical forest tree height is a key indicator of ecological processes associated with forest growth and carbon dynamics. Here we examine the macroscale variations of tree height of humid tropical forests across three continents and ...
