The complete chloroplast genome of Androsace erecta (Primulaceae) and its phylogenetic implication

open access: yesMitochondrial 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 ...

Diversity and metabolic potentials of microbial communities associated with pollinator and cheater fig wasps in fig-fig wasp mutualism system

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Microbial symbionts can influence a myriad of insect behavioral and physiological traits. However, how microbial communities may shape or be shaped by insect interactions with plants and neighboring species remains underexplored.

Nest predation in Afrotropical forest fragments shaped by inverse edge effects, timing of nest initiation and vegetation structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 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,

Topography shapes the structure, composition and function of tropical forest landscapes

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2018
Topography is a key driver of tropical forest structure and composition, as it constrains local nutrient and hydraulic conditions within which trees grow. Yet, we do not fully understand how changes in forest physiognomy driven by topography impact other

Solarization of nursery soil induces production of fruit bodies of mushrooms and enhances growth of tropi-cal forest tree seedlings

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Research, 2013
The aim of this work was to find out the effect of soil solarization on microbial population and its effect on growth of two species of tropical forest trees.

Ecological stoichiometry of the epiphyte community in a subtropical forest canopy

open access: yesEcology 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 ...

Diversity did not influence soil water use of tree clusters in a temperate mixed forest [PDF]

open access: yesWeb 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

Species Matter: Wood Density Influences Tropical Forest Biomass at Multiple Scales

open access: yesSurveys in geophysics, 2019
The mass of carbon contained in trees is governed by the volume and density of their wood. This represents a challenge to most remote sensing technologies, which typically detect surface structure and parameters related to wood volume but not to its ...

Carbon pools recover more rapidly than plant biodiversity in secondary tropical forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Both REDD+ and the Convention on Biological Diversity aim to enhance carbon stocks and biodiversity through tropical forest restoration. However, we lack evidence of the effectiveness of such management. Using data from tropical forest chronosequence and
