Climate change, eutrophication and intensified forest management are affecting forest
understorey plants, a major component of forest biodiversity. The main impacts of these …

Background Hedera helix L. is an invasive weed species introduced in several regions of
the world, so it is relevant to study its effects on the plant community and the changes …

Urban environments are vulnerable to the introduction of non-native species and sometimes
contribute to their invasion success. Knowing how urban landscape features affect the …

Tree‐tree competition has been widely studied as a mechanism responsible for maintaining
forest plant species diversity. Other common plant types, such as lianas, may influence tree …

Understory communities can dominate forest plant diversity and strongly affect forest
ecosystem structure and function. Understories often respond sensitively but inconsistently …

Understanding the role of epiphytic vegetation and other microhabitats created by plants
(hereafter lianas) developing on the surrounding ones is crucial for understanding the …

Wild pollinators are crucial for ecosystem functioning and human food production and often
rely on floral resources provided by different (semi‐) natural ecosystems for survival. Yet, the …

The digitization of natural history specimens and the popularization of citizen science are
creating an unprecedented availability of large amounts of biodiversity data. These …

Hedera helix L. is a widespread liana that significantly influences forest ecosystems in
temperate zones, exhibiting high adaptability to varying soil moisture and light levels. In this …

Premise Previous experimental studies have shown that poison ivy (Toxicodendron
radicans; Anacardicaceae) responds to elevated CO2 with increased leaf production, water …
