Abstract: Abstract Tropical rainforests have been thought to have low prevalence and diversity of ectomycorrhizal symbioses. However, to date, tropical regions have been poorly sampled for ectomycorrhizal fungi. Here, we investigated ectomycorrhizal fungal community diversity and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2116626119
Abstract: Significance Drought events affecting tropical rainforests are expected to become more frequent due to climate change. However, the ability of tropical rainforests to withstand drought remains controversial. We developed a radar data set that quantifies… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph192214891
Abstract: Active incentives or compensation measures plus conservation, sustainable management of forests, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks (denoted together as “REDD+”) should be adopted in developing countries to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions caused by… read more here.
