Comparison of culturing and metabarcoding methods to describe the fungal endophytic assemblage of brachypodium rupestre growing in a range of anthropized disturbance regimes
Fungal endophytes develop inside plants without visible external signs, and they may confer adaptive advantages to their hosts. Culturing methods have been traditionally used to recognize the fungal endophytic assemblage, ... -
Decoupling of traditional burnings and grazing regimes alters plant diversity and dominant species competition in high-mountain grasslands
Over millennia, the combination of controlled burnings and extensive grazing has maintained mosaic landscapes and preserved mountain grasslands in southern Europe. In the last century, deep socio-economic changes have led ... -
Disruption of traditional grazing and fire regimes shape the fungal endophyte assemblages of the tall-grass Brachypodium rupestre
The plant microbiome is likely to play a key role in the resilience of communities to the global climate change. This research analyses the culturable fungal mycobiota of Brachypodium rupestre across a sharp gradient of ... -
Disruption of traditional land use regimes causes an economic loss of provisioning services in high-mountain grasslands
Mountain ecosystems face many challenges related to global change. Most high-altitude grasslands in the Pyrenees, despite representing valuable assets recognised in the European conservation heritage, are at risk due to ... -
Formando futuras investigadoras: introduciendo la ciencia ecológica y ambiental al mundo escolar
A pesar de su relevancia social creciente, la ciencia ecológica y ambiental está pasando por momentos muy bajos en los programas educativos de secundaria y bachillerato en nuestro país. En muchos centros escolares, la ... -
Horse meat production in northern Spain: ecosystem services and sustainability in high nature value farmland
-Pasture-based, extensive livestock systems play an im-portant role in the preservation of the rural landscape, and the many ecosystem services associated. -Spain is the major horse meat producer at EU level, ... -
Interactions between biogeochemical and management factors explain soil organic carbon in Pyrenean grasslands
Grasslands are one of the major sinks of terrestrial soil organic carbon (SOC). Understanding how environmental and management factors drive SOC is challenging because they are scale-dependent, with large-scale drivers ... -
Landscape in motion: revisiting the role of key disturbances in the preservation of mountain ecosystems
La historia del planeta es una historia dinámica, de continuo cambio. Los responsables de la gestión del medio natural se enfrentan actualmente ante un paisaje muy cambiante debido a las condiciones de cambio global (cambio ... -
Plant functional diversity, climate and grazer type regulate soil activity in natural grasslands
Global change modifies vegetation composition in grasslands with shifts in plant functional types (PFT). Although changes in plant community composition imply changes in soil function, this relationship is not well understood. ... -
Positive effects of legumes on soil organic carbon stocks disappear at high legume proportions across natural grasslands in the Pyrenees
Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon pool, making it crucial for climate change mitigation. Soil organic carbon (SOC) is suggested to depend on biodiversity components, but much evidence comes from diversity-function ... -
Pyric herbivory increases soil microbial diversity but has a site-dependent effect on soil mesofauna in the mid-term
Woody plant encroachment threatens grassland biomes at a global scale. Pyric herbivory combines prescribed burnings and targeted grazing to restore open habitats and has proved to be successful in promoting landscape and ... -
Soil bacterial functional diversity mirrors the loss of plant diversity by the expansion of a native tall-grass in high mountain grasslands
Background and Aims: In highland ecosystems, global change processes are intense and foster vegetation shifts that may have an impact on soil functioning. Soil bacterial communities may be particularly sensitive to these ... -
Soil C/N ratios cause opposing effects in forests compared to grasslands on decomposition rates and stabilization factors in southern European ecosystems
Soils store an important amount of carbon (C), mostly in the form of organic matter in different decomposing stages. Hence, understanding the factors that rule the rates at which decomposed organic matter is incorporated ...
