Carbon emissions are helping make older trees in the Amazon bigger. But “it doesn’t mean carbon dioxide is good for the forest," says Adriane Esquivel-Muelbert @camplantsci.bsky.social. "What we’re seeing is resilience, not relief.”

How many plant species are buzz pollinated? After more than six years in the making, our paper on the convergent evolution of buzz pollinated flowers is out in @journal-evo.bsky.social. Thanks @draverbee.bsky.social @roszenil.bsky.social and all co-authors for your hard work! doi.org/10.1093/evol...

Happy to share our most recent paper: a complete inventory of non-native vascular plants in continental Ecuador: 486 taxa. Mostly herbs (67%) from Asia & Africa. 93% found in the Andes. 80% have known uses—ornamental (42%), medicinal (38%). neobiota.pensoft.net/article/1472...

Excited to share that the second paper of my PhD is out in @currentbiology.bsky.social 🍈🦜🍒🐒🍊🐿️
We show that the functional diversity of seed-dispersal interactions in tropical forests takes circa 20 years to recover after deforestation.

Delayed recovery of seed-dispersal interactions after deforestation
Landim et al. show that seed-dispersal interactions require about two decades to functionally
recover in tropical forests in Ecuador, but the recovery time of seed-dispersal functions
is delayed in pa...
