Local Perceptions of Ecosystem Services Across Multiple Ecosystem Types in Spain
(MDPI, 2020-09-18)
Combining socio-cultural valuations of ecosystem services with ecological and monetary assessments is critical to informing decision making with an integrative and multi-pronged approach. This study examined differences ...
Relationship between tillage management and DMPSA nitrification inhibitor efficiency
(Elsevier, 2020-05-20)
Agricultural sustainability is compromised by nitrogen (N) losses caused by soil microbial activity. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas (GHG) produced as consequence of nitrification and denitrification processes ...
Testing macroecological abundance patterns: The relationship between local abundance and range size, range position and climatic suitability among European vascular plants
(Wiley, 2020-10)
Aim A fundamental question in macroecology centres around understanding the relationship between species' local abundance and their distribution in geographical and climatic space (i.e. the multi-dimensional climatic space ...
Fine-grain beta diversity of Palaearctic grassland vegetation
(Wiley, 2021-05-22)
Questions Which environmental factors influence fine-grain beta diversity of vegetation and do they vary among taxonomic groups? Location Palaearctic biogeographic realm. Methods We extracted 4,654 nested-plot series with ...
EUNIS Habitat Classification: Expert system, characteristic species combinations and distribution maps of European habitats
(Wiley, 2020-10)
Aim The EUNIS Habitat Classification is a widely used reference framework for European habitat types (habitats), but it lacks formal definitions of individual habitats that would enable their unequivocal identification. ...
Impact of dimethylpyrazole-based nitrification inhibitors on soil-borne bacteria
(Elsevier, 2021-06-15)
[EN] Nitrogen (N) input from fertilizers modifies the properties of agricultural soils as well as bacterial community
diversity, composition and relationships. This can lead to negative impacts such as the deterioration ...
European Grapevine Cultivars and Rootstocks Show Differential Resistance to Xylella fastidiosa Subsp. fastidiosa
(MDPI, 2023-11-12)
Several Xylella fastidiosa subsp. fastidiosa (ST1) strains that cause Pierce’s disease were isolated from grapevine in Spain. In this study, we applied an approach to assess PD susceptibility among 24 different well-known ...
Stress Response to Climate Change and Postharvest Handling in Two Differently Pigmented Lettuce Genotypes: Impact on Alternaria alternata Invasion and Mycotoxin Production
(MDPI, 2023-03-14)
Many species of Alternaria are important pathogens that cause plant diseases and postharvest rots. They lead to significant economic losses in agriculture and affect human and animal health due to their capacity to produce ...
Assessment of determinants of high nature value (HNV) farmland at plot scale in Western Pyrenees
(Elsevier, 2024-01)
The concept of High Nature Value (HNV) farming hinges on the causality between agroecosystems with low intensity of management and the corresponding environmental outcomes, including high levels of biodiversity and the ...
A physiological approach to study the competition ability of the grassland species Trifolium pratense and Agrostis capillaris
(Elsevier, 2020-09-19)
(EN) The response of plant species to external factors depends partly on the interaction with the environment and with the other species that coexist in the same ecosystem. Several studies have investigated the main traits ...
