Ecological determinants of stability in dryland plant communities
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Conceptual framework for partitioning the drivers of community stability. Summary Community stability is often presented as crucial for sustaining ecosystem services under environmental change. Yet, its determinants (dominance, asynchrony in species fluctuations, averaging effect of species diversity) have rarely been disentangled in natural systems ...

Divergent trajectories of genome architecture and chromosome evolution in ferns and angiosperms
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Variation in key fern genomic traits across families, mapped onto a summary phylogenetic tree. Summary Ferns and angiosperms represent the two largest vascular plant lineages but exhibit striking genomic and ecological contrasts. We investigated whether differences in genome size, chromosome architecture, GC content, and stomatal traits reveal ...

Neutral interactions among non‐native plants are common
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Global distribution of studies and overall effect of co‐invasion for all metrics of non‐native plant performance combined. Summary Globalization has accelerated the establishment of non‐native plant species, increasing the prevalence of multispecies co‐invasions; yet interactions among co‐invaders remain poorly understood.

Consistent root microbiomes across contrasting habitats in a wild perennial vine
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Communities of bacteria and fungi associated with the roots are similar across diverse habitats in a wild plant. Abstract While we are beginning to understand that the plant microbiome is important for plant health, we still lack information about how plant microbiomes are shaped across environments and how they influence plant performance, in ...

Underground allies: Mycorrhizal flexibility facilitates orchid occurrence in post‐mining landscapes
Plant Biology, EarlyView.Epipactis helleborine associates with largely habitat‐specific fungal communities, with limited overlap between mining and woodland sites, yet maintains comparable genetic diversity across habitats. These results highlight the role of mycorrhizal flexibility in enabling habitat shifts and expanding ecological niches in human‐altered landscapes ...

The effect of stand arrangement on the understory vegetation of conifer plantation.
The Japanese Forest Society Congress, 2007 openaire +1 more source
Plant Biology, EarlyView.By comparing floral trait variation, integration and modularity in two sister species of Neotropical Costus with a pollination shift, we show that, despite pollination syndrome divergence, both species exhibit low floral variation and functional modularity, consistent with pollinator‐driven selection on traits mediating pollen transfer efficiency and ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Revegetation using native vegetation is a commonly used technique to reclaim landscapes degraded by mining activities. Revegetation efforts in the arid Southwestern United States face physical, geochemical, hydrological, and biological challenges unique to drylands.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction The fragmentation of the Atlantic Forest has caused severe biodiversity loss. In Paraná State, more than 96% of the original vegetation, predominantly semideciduous seasonal forest, has been degraded. Ecological restoration is a key strategy to reverse this scenario, aiming to recover environmental conditions equivalent to the ...
