This study examines how mango trees affect soil properties and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) communities in maize and cassava agroforestry systems in southern Ethiopia, finding that host type and soil nutrients, rather than proximity to mango trees, drive AMF community composition and diversity.

The paper uses a deep-learning approach on a large simulated dataset to analyze how climate change affects competitive strength and dominance of tree species in Europe.

This study examines how agroforestry trees affect microclimate and enset morphophysiology in South Ethiopia, finding that tree canopy cover modifies temperature and moisture, with varying effects on plant traits.

This study shows that acquisitive tree species maintain higher growth rates than conservative species across environmental gradients, while nitrogen fixation does not consistently improve restoration success in Peruvian tropical dry forests.

The paper shows that tree species' resource economics influence soil food web multifunctionality in European forests, with acquisitive species promoting higher metabolic activity and multifunctionality.

This paper improves species distribution model range edge predictions by integrating climatic extremes using the GEV distribution, showing better performance in capturing extreme events compared to existing methods.
