Genetic variation in Miscanthus ×giganteus and the importance of estimating genetic distance thresholds for differentiating clones
(2015)Miscanthus × giganteus (Mxg) is an important bioenergy feedstock crop, however, genetic diversity among legacy cultivars may be severely constrained. Only one introduction from Japan to Denmark of this sterile, triploid, ... -
Globalisation and pollinators: Pollinator declines are an economic threat to global food systems
(2022)Trade in animal-pollinated crops plays an important role in global food systems: in many low-income countries, export of pollinated crops such as coffee and cocoa plays a significant role in livelihoods, while food systems ... -
Green Infrastructure: A ?How To? Guide for Disseminating and Integrating the Concept into Spatial Planning Practice
(Environmental Protection Agency, 2016) -
High levels of variation in Salix lignocellulose genes revealed using poplar genomic resources
(2013)Background Little is known about the levels of variation in lignin or other wood related genes in Salix, a genus that is being increasingly used for biomass and biofuel production. The lignin biosynthesis pathway is ... -
Importance of reporting ancillary site characteristics, and management and disturbance information at ICOS stations.
(2018)There are many factors that influence ecosystem scale carbon, nitrogen and greenhouse gas dynamics, including the inherent heterogeneity of soils and vegetation, anthropogenic management interventions, and biotic and abiotic ... -
An integrated process for planning, delivery, and stewardship of urban nature-based solutions: the Connecting Nature Framework
(2023)Mainstreaming nature-based solutions in cities has grown in scale and magnitude in recent times but is still considered to be the main challenge for transitioning our cities and their communities to be more climate resilient ... -
Integrating stakeholder perspectives into environmental planning through social valuation of ecosystem services: Guidance and Prototype Applications
(OPERAs Project, 2017)Social – or socio-cultural – valuation of ecosystem services is the process of discovering what ecosystem services people value and how important they are to them. In this document, you find guidance to set up your own ... -
Meta-analysis reveals that pollinator functional diversity and abundance enhance crop pollination and yield
(2019)How insects promote crop pollination remains poorly understood in terms of the contribution of functional trait differences between species. We used meta-analyses to test for correlations between community abundance, species ... -
Microfossils from the Lower Devonian Rhynie Chert with suggested affinities to the Peronosporomycetes
(2012)A conspicuous silicified microfossil, Frankbaronia polyspora n. gen. n. sp., occurs in plant litter and as an inhabitant of microbial mats from the Lower Devonian Rhynie chert, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Specimens are ... -
Mycorrhizal symbiosis in the Paleozoic seed fern Glossopteris from Antarctica
(2013)Mycorrhizal associations occur in almost all modern plant groups and are probably one of the most important forms of symbioses in the context of terrestrial ecology and evolution. Surprisingly, there is a paucity of ... -
Nature-based solutions for urban climate change adaptation: linking the science, policy, and practice community for evidence-based decision-making
(2019)Nature-based solutions offer an exciting prospect for resilience building and advancing urban planning to address complex urban challenges simultaneously. In this article, we formulated through a coproduction process in ...
