DOI: 10.1007/s10342-018-1108-1
Abstract: We aimed at identifying which drivers control the spatio-temporal variability of fruit production in three major European temperate deciduous tree species: Quercus robur, Quercus petraea and Fagus sylvatica. We analysed the relations of fruit production… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13165-018-0217-y
Abstract: Biochar (BC) application to soil could increase soil C sequestration, soil fertility, and crop production, which makes it an interesting soil amendment for organic agriculture. However, studies to date show a great variability in their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.scienta.2018.03.033
Abstract: Abstract The wet, hot summers and cold, dry winters in Wudu, China differ from the climate in the Mediterranean olive-growing region. Eight olive (Olea europaea L.) cultivars (‘Arbequina’, ‘Hojiblanca’, ‘Manzanilla de Cacerena’, ‘Cornicabra’, ‘Picual’, ‘Arbosana’,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0266467421000067
Abstract: The importance of wild insects as pollinators of tropical tree crops has rarely been tested. Across 18 small-scale lychee orchards in northern Thailand, we evaluated the roles of different wild insects as pollinators and predators… read more here.

DOI: 10.1094/pdis-08-16-1177-re
Abstract: The decline and death of strawberry plants in Spanish fruit production fields have mainly been attributed to the soilborne pathogens Macrophomina phaseolina, Phytophthora cactorum, and Fusarium spp. Inoculum sources of M. phaseolina and P. cactorum,… read more here.

Conservative seed fertility maintains hermaphrodites in gynodioecious Daphne jezoensis: a test of the sex-differential plasticity hypothesis.

DOI: 10.1111/plb.13458
Abstract: Gynodioecy is assumed to be an evolutionary transition from hermaphroditism to dioecy. However, if hermaphrodites can better flexibly regulate seed production depending on resource availability than females, i.e. sex-differential plasticity (SDP), gynodioecy can be a… read more here.

Patterns of pollen and resource limitation of fruit production in Vaccinium uliginosum and V. vitis-idaea in Interior Alaska
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "PLoS ONE"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0224056
Abstract: Many recent studies assessing fruit productivity of plants in the boreal forest focus on interannual variability across a forested region, rather than on environmental variability within the forest. Frequency and severity of wildfires in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2018.01611
Abstract: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonize the roots of most terrestrial plant species, improving plant growth, nutrient uptake and biotic/abiotic stress resistance and tolerance. Similarly, plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) enhance plant fitness and production. In… read more here.
