🌱 This reveals that complex sets of adaptations, both root-based ‘do-it-yourself’ and mycorrhizal-based ‘outsourcing’, can be effectively used by trees to cope with changes in soil nutrient availability

🌲 These findings demonstrate that the abiotic potential for treeline shift is nullified by the biotic collapse of critical facilitative recruitment niches

🌾 These findings identify a management opportunity in mid-to-late restoration, during which promoting species evenness may strengthen the mechanisms underpinning long-term community stability

🌱 Silicon (Si) is increasingly linked to shifts in plant carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry. However, reported responses vary widely across records

🍄 AM fungal colonization of the dominant grass remained reduced, revealing a mismatch between above-ground recovery and below-ground legacies

🦠 Together, these findings show that seed-derived bacterial community structure is associated with host phylogeny in wild Medicago and breeding-related trait differentiation in cultivated alfalfa

🌿 Explicit consideration of community composition is important when canopy spectral variability is used to infer plant alpha diversity across plant communities

🌷 These findings demonstrate that increasing dominance of exotic plants can generate microbial legacies that progressively favour exotic plants over native plants
👉️ buff.ly/TjGJPjm
🍄 These findings indicate that elevated plant colonisation drives shifts towards faster-growing, decomposition-oriented microbial communities
👉️ buff.ly/K5yhJPz
🌾 This study highlights the value of long-term multifactorial experiments and suggests that the interplay of limiting factors can help predict mechanistic context dependence in plant colonisation
👉️ buff.ly/yi7M5ai
🪱 These findings provide direct experimental evidence that plants maintaining plant integrity is critical for sustaining high multifunctionality and biologically buffered stability under global change

Navigating evidence synthesis in applied ecology 🗂️
In this Editorial, we aim to untangle the complexity of evidence synthesis methods & set out practical guidance for authors such as...
👉design expectations
👉common pitfalls
👉making evidence useful for ecological management
This study suggests that the intricate relationship between species abundance and PSF is closely implicated in the dynamics of local species coexistence

🚨 new podcast episode!
🕷️ we spoke with Nevo Sagi about his recently published paper, "carbon flow to generalist predators shifts between plant- and fungal-derived resources in highly seasonal ecosystems"
🎧️ you can listen to the full episode here: buff.ly/NZoWKph
🌾 These results show that methodological choices in trait selection and metrics influence conclusions about functional diversity

🌿 These findings reveal that FGR provides a structural template for biotic resistance, whereas functional identity determines whether this template translates into resource pre-emption or community vulnerability
👉️ buff.ly/kJwODf6
🍄 This study demonstrates that maintaining an asymmetrically mixed mycorrhizal strategy is critical for maximizing forest tree species diversity, rather than dominance by a single type
👉️ buff.ly/iOg3fbO
🌐 This study suggests that the optimal spatial resolution of predictors in SDMs should be guided less by the size of individuals and rather by the spatial extent required to sustain minimum viable populations
👉️ buff.ly/TEMcHta
🌱 These findings reveal that N enrichment reshapes sapling life-history strategies by altering trait-mediated resource allocation and physiological sensitivity to climatic stress
