As branches age, stems thicken, needles spread out, less self-shading. This dynamic may further support long-term survival in low light. (10/10)

New head of a WSL forest research unit From 1 April 2026, forestry scientist Janine Schweier will head the WSL research unit Forest Resources and Management.

Janine Schweier will head the WSL research unit ‘Forest Resources and Management’ from 1.4.2026. Her emphasis is on the practical application of research findings to facilitate planning in the forestry sector. www.wsl.ch/en/news/new-... #Forest #Forestry #ForestManagement #ForestEcology

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few.....

🍄 New in @NewPhytologist: Our paper shows that ectomycorrhizal fungi "exploration types" aren't just morphological labels—they reflect distinct genomes & ecological niches.

Dry season forests suddenly ignite with colour.
Flame-of-the-Forest (Butea monosperma) blooming across the granite uplands of eastern India.

These flowers become critical nectar resources for birds and insects when most vegetation is dormant.
