Lipidomics of orchid seeds: from development to storage
The study tracked lipid changes from pollination to storage in two orchid species. Although both were desiccation‐tolerant and storable, differences in saturated and unsaturated fatty acid proportions during development led to different moisture contents and germination capacities.

Abstract Introduction Since European settlement, Australia's Wet Tropics bioregion has been extensively cleared, leaving a mosaic of rainforest fragments, crops, pastures, orchards, and human settlement. Fragment isolation leads to declines in faunal diversity and genetic variability, effects potentially exacerbated by climate change. Restoring habitat

Abstract Introduction Forest restoration in Hawaii is underway due to past large‐scale conversion of forests to pastures dominated by invasive grasses. Secondary succession is limited by grass dominance and a lack of native seed rain, making outplanting a viable restoration strategy.

Abstract Introduction Scaling ecological restoration in the Amazon requires a reliable supply of native planting stock, yet nursery environments can strongly shape seedling phenotypes and species‐specific guidance remains limited. For late‐successional tropical trees, understanding how manageable nursery conditions coordinate growth and biomass ...
