Vegetation phenology is highly sensitive to climate change. Phenology also controls many
feedbacks of vegetation to the climate system by influencing the seasonality of albedo …

At the core of plant regeneration, temperature and water supply are critical drivers for seed
dormancy (initiation, break) and germination. Hence, global climate change is altering these …

Experiments suggest that biodiversity enhances the ability of ecosystems to maintain
multiple functions, such as carbon storage, productivity, and the buildup of nutrient pools …

Global change drivers create new environmental scenarios and selective pressures,
affecting plant species in various interacting ways. Plants respond with changes in …

Climate change poses critical challenges for population persistence in natural communities,
for agriculture and environmental sustainability, and for food security. In this review, we …

There has been a remarkable scientific output on the topic of how climate change is likely to
affect plant diseases. This overview addresses the need for review of this burgeoning …

Plant phenology is strongly controlled by climate and has consequently become one of the
most reliable bioindicators of ongoing climate change. We used a dataset of more than 200 …

The adaptation of plants to particular soil types has long intrigued biologists. Gypsum soils
occupy large areas in many regions of the world and host a striking biological diversity, but …

Global change poses new challenges for plant species, including novel and complex
combinations of environmental conditions to which plants should adjust and adapt …

Climate change, alteration of atmospheric composition, land abandonment in some areas
and land use intensification in others, wildfires and biological invasions threaten forests …
