Fertile Soils Increase Susceptibility of Pinus sylvestris to Cronartium pini

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cronartium pini, Scots pine blister rust, is a rust fungus that has caused severe damage in both old and young Scots pine (P. sylvestris) forest stands in northern Fennoscandia. To understand the many drivers of these outbreaks we examined putative factors and their explanatory power of C.

Long‐Term Effects of Biochar Addition on Diameter Growth in Young Established Boreal Scots Pine Stands

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.
Biochar application on top of the soil can be successful in already established and naturally regenerated boreal forest stands. Biochar tends to increase diameter and basal area growth. Increasing biochar dose enhanced growth response. Biochar induced growth response diminished 5 years after application.

Diversity–productivity relationships in ericaceous plants are influenced by interactions with ericoid mycorrhizal fungi

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The positive effect of plant diversity on ecosystem productivity is among the most widespread trends in ecosystem ecology. Most studies suggest that niche differences (complementarity) play a significant role in shaping these effects. As most plant species require mutualistic mycorrhizal fungi to access limiting nutrients, recent evidence ...

Physicochemical, Bioactive, and Clinical Evaluation of Blueberry‐Enriched Kombucha as a Functional Beverage

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to develop a blueberry‐flavored kombucha and evaluate its functional properties and effects on human intestinal health. The beverage was produced from green tea and sucrose, fermented with a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts (SCOBY), followed by the addition of blueberry syrup and a second fermentation stage.
