Leaf microbiome data for European beech (Fagus sylvatica) at the leaf and canopy scales collected in a gallery forest in South-West France
By Véronique Lesage On 10 March 2023 In All published articles, Data in repository, Data paper, Open Access
Key message The datasets describe bacterial and fungal communities of European beech (Fagus sylvatica) leaves collected along a vertical gradient in a gallery forest throughout the growing season. They also describe communities in the surrounding environment of

Differences in eco-physiological responses to the removal of adventitious roots between Syzygium nervosum A. Cunn. ex DC. and Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels saplings under waterlogging
By Véronique Lesage On 9 March 2023 In All published articles, Data in repository, Open Access, Research paper
Key message The production of adventitious roots partially counteracts the negative effects of waterlogging on the growth of Syzygium nervosum A. Cunn. ex DC. and Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels. S. cumini was more responsive and suffered from

Intraspecific variation of Quercus ilex L. seed morphophysiological traits in Tunisia reveals a trade-off between seed germination and shoot emergence rates along a thermal gradient
By Véronique Lesage On 24 February 2023 In All published articles, Data in repository, Open Access, Research paper
Key message Quercus ilex populations from cold habitats display a large lag between seed germination and shoot emergence time, favouring avoidance of late frost events. Populations from mild habitats show the fastest seed germination and shoot emergence

Two new methods applied to crown width additive models: a case study for three tree species in Northeastern China
Key message The non-linear seemingly unrelated regression mixed-effects model (NSURMEM) and generalized additive model (GAM) were applied for the first time in crown width (CW) additive models of larch (Larix gmelinii Rupr.), birch (Betula platyphylla Suk.), and

Differential responses of phosphorus accumulation and mobilization in Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis (Carrière) J. Houz) seedlings to short-term experimental nitrogen deposition
By Véronique Lesage On 17 February 2023 In All published articles, Data in repository, Open Access, Research paper
Key message Short-term nitrogen (N) deposition stimulates phosphorus (P) demand owing to the growth improvment of Phyllostachys edulis seedlings. Increased N loads led to the acquisition and utilization of sufficient P, while the limitation of P starvation

Forest adaptation and restoration under global change
By Véronique Lesage On 6 February 2023 In All published articles, Editorial, Open Access, Special issue/Topical collection
Key message Along with the preservation of intact forest landscapes, forest adaptation and restoration are needed to prevent the continued global loss of ecosystem services and biodiversity, so that forest landscapes can meet the ecological, economic, and

Infestation of pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings with the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner and Buhrer (Nickle) through wood sawdust
By Véronique Lesage On 2 February 2023 In All published articles, Data in repository, Open Access, Research paper, Special issue/Topical collection
Key message There are various pathways for infesting pine trees with the pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. As a result of the experiment, we determined that sawdust infested with the nematode can pose a phytosanitary risk. Nematodes

Effect of logging residue removal and mechanical site preparation on productivity of the subsequent Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stands
By Véronique Lesage On 31 January 2023 In All published articles, Data in repository, Open Access, Research paper
Key message Removal of logging residue negatively affected tree diameter and height, but had no significant effect on the basal area of the subsequent stand (in the mid-term). On the other hand, different methods of mechanical site
