Transgenerational coexistence history attenuates negative direct interactions and strengthens facilitation

This study shows that community adaptation reduces negative direct interactions and enhances facilitation in crop mixtures, potentially improving productivity in diverse cropping systems.

Coadaptation of coexisting plants enhances productivity in an agricultural system

This study shows that coadaptation through coevolution in plant mixtures increases productivity, but functional traits alone cannot fully explain the benefits.

Performance of a winter wheat composite cross population in two temperate agroforestry systems: a case study

This study compares the performance of a winter wheat composite cross population (CCP) and a commercial variety in two agroforestry systems, finding yield advantages for the CCP in one site but quality advantages for the commercial variety.

How do different functional groups of crop perform in temperate silvoarable agroforestry systems? A case study

This study evaluates how different crop species perform under varying shade, fertilisation, and irrigation conditions in a temperate silvoarable agroforestry system, identifying yield impacts and management recommendations.

Crops grown in mixtures show niche partitioning in spatial water uptake

This study investigates spatial water uptake patterns in crop mixtures and finds evidence for niche partitioning and higher productivity in mixtures compared to monocultures.

Facilitation and biodiversity jointly drive mutualistic networks

This study shows that nurse plants and understorey diversity both enhance pollinator diversity and visitation, with nurse plants buffering the effects of understorey diversity on pollinators.

Facilitation between plants shapes pollination networks

The paper shows that plant facilitation affects pollinator communities and changes the structure and robustness of plant-pollinator networks.

Positive interactions support complex networks

The paper examines spatial structure of plant interaction networks in alpine communities, finding that positive interactions promote network cohesiveness and diversity.
