Acidogenic fermentation of pretreated food waste under psychrophilic conditions for volatile fatty acids production

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Mixed‐culture fermentation generally produces volatile fatty acids (VFAs) as a mixture of C2–C6 acids. Among operational parameters, temperature has a distinct effect on the microorganisms' metabolic activity, which can shift the composition of the metabolites.

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.
