The impact of global climate change on genetic diversity within populations and species
Genetic diversity provides the basic substrate for evolution, yet few studies assess the
impacts of global climate change (GCC) on intraspecific genetic variation. In this review, we …

Mycorrhizal networks: a review of their extent, function, and importance
It is well known from laboratory studies that a single mycorrhizal fungal isolate can colonize
different plant species, form interplant linkages, and provide a conduit for interplant transfer …

Effects of grassland plant species diversity, abundance, and composition on foliar fungal disease
In an experiment that directly manipulated grassland plant species richness and
composition, decreased plant species richness (“diversity”) increased pathogen load (the …

A gap-based approach for development of silvicultural systems to address ecosystem management objectives
Foresters have traditionally managed forests with silvicultural systems that prescribe stand
homogeneity for optimized tree growth. The primacy of timber as the dominant objective is …
