Comparative carpological study of Poikilospermum (Urticaceae) in relation to taxonomy
Fruit morphology and the anatomical structure of the pericarp, fruiting perianth, and seed coat were studied in 15 species of Poikilospermum, a genus whose position within the Urticaceae has long been controversial.

Forest structure and connectivity drive the functional recovery of seed rain
Local forest structure and landscape‐scale connectivity shape distinct but complementary pathways of the functional recovery of seed rain in tropical forests. Structural complexity promotes functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions locally, while connectivity facilitates the arrival of late‐successional seeds from external sources.

Testing Darwin's transoceanic dispersal hypothesis for the inland nettle family (Urticaceae).
Dispersal is a fundamental ecological process, yet demonstrating the occurrence and importance of long-distance dispersal (LDD) remains difficult, having rarely been examined for widespread, non-coastal plants.

Measurement of Ungulate Palatability and Browsing Pressure on Japanese Flora
Estimation of palatability and browsing pressure are key techniques for ecosystem management. We compared four methods to estimate palatability based on browsing scar survey and proposed the reference palatability values for the Japanese flora as plant ecological trait.

We tested how elevation and microclimate influenced butterfly–flower interaction networks at the hottest time of year in a Mediterranean mountain range. Interactions were dominated at all sites by one or two abundant butterfly and flower species, but butterfly networks were more robust to plant species loss at higher elevations. Nectar availability may

Relationship between climate variability indices and airborne pollination in Catalonia (NE Iberian Peninsula) [PDF]
Here we explore the effect of climatic variability on the airborne pollen series recorded in Catalonia (NE Iberian Peninsula) considered of high interest due to abundance, landscape importance and/or allergenic significance.

Seasonal fluctuations of the airborne pollen in Guarda (Portugal) [PDF]
Airborne pollen calendars are useful to estimate the flowering season of the different plants as well as to indicate the allergenic potential present in the atmosphere at a given time.
