Cultivated alien plants with high invasion potential are more likely to be traded online in China
<p>Biological invasions have become a worldwide problem, and measures to efficiently prevent and control invasions are still being developed. Like many other parts of the world, China is undergoing a dramatic increase in plant invasions. Most of the currently 933 established (i.e., naturalized) plant species, of which 214 are categorized as invasive, have been introduced into China for cultivation. It is likely that many of those species are still being traded, particularly online, by plant nurseries. However, studies assessing whether naturalized and invasive species are currently being traded more or less than non-naturalized aliens are rare. We extracted online-trade information for 13,718 cultivated alien plant taxa on 1688.com, the largest website for domestic B2B in China. We analyzed how the presence in online-nursery catalogues, the number of online nurseries that offer the species for sale, and the product type (i.e., seeds, live plants and vegetative organs) differed among non-naturalized, naturalized non-invasive and invasive species. Compared to non-naturalized taxa, naturalized non-invasive and invasive taxa were 3.7 to 5.2 times more likely available for sale. Naturalized non-invasive and invasive taxa were more frequently offered as seeds by online nurseries, whereas non-naturalized taxa were more frequently offered as live plants. Based on these findings, we propose that, to reduce the further spread of invasive and potentially invasive plants, implementation of plant-trade regulations and a monitoring system of the online horticultural supply chain will be essential.</p>

<p>This dataset contains the list of plant species that have been observed on the French territory using the <a href="https://plantnet.org/">Pl@ntNet </a>application and that are NOT know as being either native or naturalized according to Kew's Plants of the World Online repository (<a href="https://powo.science.kew.org/">POWO</a>). Such species are typically exotic species managed by humans in anthropized environments such as guardens, houses or cultivated areas. This includes commercialized plants for various usage such as ornemental plants, eatable plants, phytotherapy, etc. The list contains 5,589 species, each associated with its scientific name and the number of valid Pl@ntNet observations of that species geo-localized in the metropolitan French territory. </p>
Naturalization of introduced plants is driven by life-form-dependent cultivation biases
<p><em>Aims: </em></p> <p>Most naturalized plants are escapees from cultivation. Inventories of cultivated introduced species thus offer unique, still underutilized, opportunities to assess naturalization drivers of introduced plants. We used a comprehensive inventory of 13,718 introduced species cultivated in China's botanical gardens to test which species characteristics distinguish the 739 species that have naturalized.</p> <p><em>Locations:</em> China.</p> <p><em>Methods: </em></p> <p>We used generalized linear models to test whether the naturalization of cultivated introduced plants in China is associated with functional traits, propagule pressure, environmental niche, and introduction history. To test direct and indirect effects of those variables and their relative importance in driving naturalization, we used structural equation models.</p> <p><em>Results: </em></p> <p>We showed that species were more likely to naturalize when they originate from the Americas, are more widely cultivated, and have a longer residence time. Moreover, species were more likely to naturalize if they have a good environmental match, are short-lived herbs, are predominantly propagated from seeds, and, in the case of herbs, are relatively tall compared to other herbs. Part of the latter effects are mediated by how these variables relate to propagule-pressure proxies, and this varies among short-lived herbs, long-lived herbs and woody plants. Main conclusions: Naturalization is partly driven by life-form-dependent cultivation biases.</p>

Study of the genetic and phenotypic variation among wild and cultivated clary sages provides interesting avenues for breeding programs of a perfume, medicinal and aromatic plant
<p>A road-map of the genetic and phenotypic diversities in both crops and their wild-related species can help identifying valuable genetic resources for further crop breeding. The clary sage (<em>Salvia sclarea L.</em>), a perfume, medicinal and aromatic plant, is used for sclareol production and ornamental purposes. Despite its wide use in the field of cosmetics, the phenotypic and genetic diversity of wild and cultivated clary sage remains to be explored. We characterized the genetic and phenotypic variation of a collection of six wild <em>S. sclarea</em> populations from Croatia, sampled along an altitudinal gradient, and of populations of three <em>S. sclarea</em> cultivars. We showed low level of genetic diversity for the two <em>S. sclarea</em> traditional cultivars used for essential oil production and for ornamental purposes, respectively. In contrast, a recent cultivar resulting from new breeding methods, which involve hybridizations among several genotypes rather than traditional recurrent selection and self-crosses over time, showed high genetic diversity. We also observed a marked phenotypic differentiation for the ornamental clary sage compared with other cultivated and wild clary sages. Instead, the two cultivars used for essential oil production, a traditional and a recent, respectively, were not phenotypically differentiated from the wild Croatian populations. Our results also featured some wild populations with high sclareol content and early-flowering phenotypes as good candidates for future breeding programs. This study opens up perspectives for basic research aiming at understanding the impact of breeding methods on clary sage evolution, and highlights interesting avenues for clary breeding programs.</p>

Mycorrhizal fungi alter root exudation to cultivate a beneficial microbiome for plant growth
<p>Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi traditionally form symbioses with most plant species. Although AM fungi have critical effects on microbial communities, the pathways showing how AM fungi shape rhizosphere bacterial communities and their functions are rarely explored. Through three systematic experiments, AM fungi-bacteria interactions were first investigated in the rhizosphere of <em>Lotus</em> <em>japonicus</em>, then the interactions were confirmed by a second experiment with wild-type and a mycorrhiza-defective mutant <em>ljcbx</em> of <em>L</em>. <em>japonicus</em>. The mechanisms were presented by adding core bacteria and AM fungi to the plant rhizosphere with the third experiment. We found that AM fungi-bacteria interactions enhanced host plant growth and identified a core bacterial group that uniquely enhanced host plant growth. Adding core bacteria and AM fungi promoted host growth and nutrient acquisition compared to adding AM fungi or core bacteria independently. Allelopathic substances secreted by AM fungal colonizing host roots to recruit the rhizosphere bacteria were detected by the multi-omics joint analysis, showing that arachidonic acid was the main allelopathic substance that affected AM fungi–bacteria interactions. Our findings provide direct evidence that mycorrhizal infection simulated root exudation, such as arachidonic acid, recruited a beneficial microbiome to the host rhizosphere, increasing plant growth and soil nutrient turnover.</p>
Data from: Does the reduction of seed dormancy during ex situ cultivation affect the germination and establishment of plants reintroduced into the wild?
<p><span>1. Plants or seeds produced in botanic gardens or nurseries have become an important source of plant material for reintroductions or population reinforcements. However, recent research has shown that these living collections bear the risk of being genetically impoverished and adapted to the artificial habitat. In particular, many studies have reported a decline of seed dormancy during ex situ cultivation, which may compromise their suitability for reintroduction programs. However, the impact of those ex situ-derived changes on the germination and establishment of reintroduced plant populations is still unclear. </span></p> <p><span>2. We studied the germination behaviour, population establishment and plant fitness over three years of reintroduced plants of the short-lived perennial <em>Digitalis</em> <em>lutea</em>, comparing plants grown from (1) a 30-year botanic garden population, (2) seeds from a seed bank representing the initial starting point of the botanic garden culture, and (3) a re-sampled corresponding wild population. </span></p> <p><span>3. Under laboratory conditions, wild-collected seeds required cold stratification to germinate, whereas seeds from the garden population germinated without stratification. This pattern was strongly reduced in an outdoor pot experiment, where only a few garden seeds germinated before winter, and all seeds remained dormant when seeded in the natural area of origin. In a transplant experiment, reintroduced plants from the wild population outperformed both, the garden and the seed bank plants, in their fitness in the first 3 years after reintroduction suggesting adaptation to current climatic conditions. </span></p> <p><span>4. Synthesis and Applications: Our study demonstrates that trait changes that occurred during ex situ cultivation can negatively impact the establishment of reintroduced plants. We conclude that wild plant material collected from contemporary populations is best suited for reintroduction and should be preferred over ex situ-cultivated and seed bank stored material, especially when the cultivation spanned multiple generations. However, our study also shows that germination requirements change in complex ways, and the loss of dormancy observed under laboratory conditions may not always be directly transferable to natural conditions. When established standards are respected, ex situ propagated material may thus still be a valuable resource, especially when wild material is not available in sufficient quantities. </span></p>
Dataset related to article: Differential effect of climate of origin and cultivation climate on structural and biochemical plant traits
<p><span>Exploring patterns and causes of intraspecific trait variation is crucial for a better understanding of the effects of climate change on plant populations and ecosystems. However, our current understanding of the intraspecific trait variation is mainly based on structural (morphological) traits, and we have limited knowledge on patterns and causes of variation in biochemical traits (e.g., leaf pigments), which are also crucial for plant adaptation. As a result, we also do not know how similar the climatic effects on structural versus biochemical traits are. </span></p> <p><span>Using plant traits from 110 genotypes representing 11 <em>Festuca</em> <em>rubra</em> populations grown in 4 different climates, we studied trait covariation among structural traits (linked to fitness, resource use, gas exchange, and reproduction) and biochemical traits (linked to photosynthesis, photoprotection, and oxidative stress). We also disentangled the relative role of the climate of origin and the climate of cultivation in the structural versus biochemical traits and tested for adaptive plasticity in the traits. </span></p> <p><span>We found that 1) biochemical traits did not covary with structural traits and represent independent '<em>photoharvesting</em> – <em>photoprotection</em>' strategy dimension of functional variation; 2) interactive effects of climate of origin and cultivation were more pronounced for biochemical than structural traits</span>. 3) T<span>rait plasticity was affected by the climate of origin (</span>precipitation and temperature as well as their interaction<span>); 4) </span><em>F. rubra</em> showed both adaptive and mal-adaptive plasticity, and adaptiveness depended upon trait type, cultivation climate, and climate of origin.</p> <p><span>Overall, our results suggest that structural and biochemical plant traits respond differentially to climate and thus the response of one group of traits cannot be predicted from the other. Responses are also strongly determined by interactions between the climate of origin and cultivation. Thus, more studies on variation in biochemical traits, their correspondence to other traits, and their variation with climate are needed. </span></p>

Kellogg Biological Station site, station Treatment 3, organic-based low chemical input (banded herbicide, starter N), winter leguminous crop, annual tillage and post-planting cultivation, study of animal abundance of Lampyridae in units of numberAdultsPerYellowStickyTrap on a yearly timescale
The EcoTrends project was established in 2004 by Dr. Debra Peters (Jornada Basin LTER, USDA-ARS Jornada Experimental Range) and Dr. Ariel Lugo (Luquillo LTER, USDA-FS Luquillo Experimental Forest) to support the collection and analysis of long-term ecological datasets. The project is a large synthesis effort focused on improving the accessibility and use of long-term data. At present, there are ~50 state and federally funded research sites that are participating and contributing to the EcoTrends project, including all 26 Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites and sites funded by the USDA Agriculture Research Service (ARS), USDA Forest Service, US Department of Energy, US Geological Survey (USGS) and numerous universities. Data from the EcoTrends project are available through an exploratory web portal (http://www.ecotrends.info). This web portal enables the continuation of data compilation and accessibility by users through an interactive web application. Ongoing data compilation is updated through both manual and automatic processing as part of the LTER Provenance Aware Synthesis Tracking Architecture (PASTA). The web portal is a collaboration between the Jornada LTER and the LTER Network Office. The following dataset from Kellogg Biological Station (KBS) contains animal abundance of Lampyridae measurements in numberAdultsPerYellowStickyTrap units and were aggregated to a yearly timescale.
