Understanding ecosystem responses to plant species loss is essential for the optimal management of grasslands. Recent studies have examined the effect...

Although the importance of the soil microbiome in mediating plant community structures and functions has been increasingly emphasized in ecological st...

1. Monocultural rubber plantations have replaced tropical forest, causing biodiversity loss. While protecting intact or semi-intact biodiverse forest ...

The increasing frequency of extreme weather events, such as floods, requires management strategies that promote resilience of grassland productivity. ...

Protected areas are increasingly threatened by biological invasions, especially in tropical Asia where extensive areas of natural habitats have been c...

Constructed ecosystems such as green roofs often contain monocultures or low-diversity plant communities, but adding more plant species to these syste...

A common prediction based on ecological theory is that natural populations of insect predators will be more abundant and effective in diverse plant as...

Increasing plant species richness often increases biomass production in nutrient-poor semi-natural grasslands. If such positive diversity-productivity...

Planting of willow genotype mixtures for biomass production has been suggested as a non-chemical strategy for pest management. Basic information on sp...

An important factor limiting the wider application of constructed ecosystems for bioremediation of sites contaminated by toxic chemicals is their rela...
