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.

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 ...

Demographic trade-offs predict tropical forest dynamics

open access: yesScience, 2019
Forest dynamics and demography Tropical forest succession has been viewed mostly by considering trees in categories of early-, mid-, and late-successional species, corresponding to a fast–slow continuum of life history strategies. Rüger et al.

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

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 ...

Multidimensional beta‐diversity across local and regional scales in a Chinese subtropical forest: The role of forest structure

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Beta‐diversity, or the spatio‐temporal variation in community composition, can be partitioned into turnover and nestedness components in a multidimensional framework.

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 ...

Are we using the most appropriate methodologies to assess the sensitivity of rainforest biodiversity to habitat disturbance? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Accurately assessing how biodiversity responds in the Anthropocene is vital. To do so, a number of indicator taxa are commonly used to monitor human-impacted forests and the subsequent recovery of their biodiversity.
