Carbon carrying capacity represented by the carbon stock in primary forests is an ecologically-based reference level that allows estimation of the mitigation potential derived from protecting and restoring forests to increase their carbon stocks. Here we measured and collated tree inventory data at primary forest sites including from research studies, literature and forest inventories (7982 sites, 288,262 trees, 27 countries) across boreal, temperate, and subtropical Global Ecological Zones within Europe. We calculated total biomass carbon stock per hectare (above- and below-ground, dead biomass) and found it was 1.6 times larger on average than modelled global maps for primary forests and 2.3 times for all forests. Large trees (diameter greater than 60 cm) accounted for 50% of biomass and are important carbon reservoirs. Carbon stock foregone by harvesting of 12–52% demonstrated the mitigation potential. Estimated carbon gain by protecting, restoring and ongoing growth of existing forests equated to 309 megatons carbon dioxide equivalents per year, additional to, and higher than, the current forest sink, and comparable to the Green Deal 2030 target for carbon dioxide removals.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2662-4435}, orcid-numbers = {Keith, Heather/0000-0001-5956-7261; Camarero, Jesús Julio/0000-0003-2436-2922; Demeter, László/0000-0003-2343-2570; Garbarino, Matteo/0000-0002-9010-1731; Kral, Kamil/0000-0002-3848-2119; Martin-Benito, Dario/0000-0002-6738-3312; Molina-Valero, Juan Alberto/0000-0002-8359-5761; Motta, Renzo/0000-0002-1631-3840; Piovesan, Gianluca/0000-0002-3214-0839; Vostarek, Ondřej/0000-0002-0657-0114; Yermokhin, Maxim/0000-0002-7317-3995; Mackey, Brendan/0000-0003-1996-4064} } @article{MTMT:34850854, title = {Incorporating physiological knowledge into correlative species distribution models minimizes bias introduced by the choice of calibration area}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34850854}, author = {Zhang, Zhixin and Zhou, Jinxin and García Molinos, Jorge and Mammola, Stefano and Bede-Fazekas, Ákos and Feng, Xiao and Kitazawa, Daisuke and Assis, Jorge and Qiu, Tianlong and Lin, Qiang}, doi = {10.1007/s42995-024-00226-0}, journal-iso = {Mar Life Sci Technol}, journal = {Marine Life Science & Technology}, unique-id = {34850854}, issn = {2096-6490}, abstract = {Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are important tools to estimate species’ geographic distribution across space and time, but their reliability heavily relies on the availability and quality of occurrence data. Estimations can be biased when occurrences do not fully represent the environmental requirement of a species. We tested to what extent species’ physiological knowledge might influence SDM estimations. Focusing on the Japanese sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus within the coastal ocean of East Asia, we compiled a comprehensive dataset of occurrence records. We then explored the importance of incorporating physiological knowledge into SDMs by calibrating two types of correlative SDMs: a naïve model that solely depends on environmental correlates, and a physiologically informed model that further incorporates physiological information as priors. We further tested the models’ sensitivity to calibration area choices by fitting them with different buffered areas around known presences. Compared with naïve models, the physiologically informed models successfully captured the negative influence of high temperature on A. japonicus and were less sensitive to the choice of calibration area. The naïve models resulted in more optimistic prediction of the changes of potential distributions under climate change (i.e., larger range expansion and less contraction) than the physiologically informed models. Our findings highlight benefits from incorporating physiological information into correlative SDMs, namely mitigating the uncertainties associated with the choice of calibration area. Given these promising features, we encourage future SDM studies to consider species physiological information where available.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2662-1746}, orcid-numbers = {Zhang, Zhixin/0000-0002-3457-2934; Zhou, Jinxin/0000-0002-1806-944X; García Molinos, Jorge/0000-0001-7516-1835; Mammola, Stefano/0000-0002-4471-9055; Bede-Fazekas, Ákos/0000-0002-2905-338X; Feng, Xiao/0000-0003-4638-3927; Kitazawa, Daisuke/0000-0002-7246-3210; Assis, Jorge/0000-0002-6624-4820; Qiu, Tianlong/0000-0003-3037-3767; Lin, Qiang/0000-0002-9916-7761} } @article{MTMT:34847680, title = {Effectiveness of fishways on the Pinka Stream and the Rába River, Central Europe: An evaluation with species from the order Cypriniformes}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34847680}, author = {Sály, Péter and Sallai, Márton and Sallai, Zoltán}, doi = {10.1002/rra.4285}, journal-iso = {RIVER RES APPL}, journal = {RIVER RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS}, unique-id = {34847680}, issn = {1535-1459}, abstract = {This study assessed the functional effectiveness in terms of passage proportion of three fishways, one nature‐like bypass, one partly nature‐like bypass and partly technical pool‐type and one completely technical, on the Pinka Stream and Rába River in Western Hungary. Radio frequency identification with passive integrated transponder tagging was used to collect data on the upstream passage. A total of 2976 tagged individuals were included in the study; 2863 individuals were either barbel ( Barbus barbus ), nase ( Chondrostoma nasus ) or chub ( Squalius cephalus ), which were chosen as model species, and 113 individuals belonged to four other species. There were 540 individuals of the model species and 18 individuals of the other species detected while successfully ascending one of the fishways. The time‐to‐event (survival) analysis of the data of the model species revealed significant species‐specific differences in passage probability between the fishways. The passage probabilities of the barbel were the highest, and those of the nase were the lowest at all three fishways. The findings demonstrate that single‐species evaluations can lead to incorrect conclusions on fishway effectiveness. Technical fishways can be as effective as nature‐like ones, and hybrid solutions (technical fishways combined with nature‐like bypasses) can function as well.

During aggregative multicellularity, genetically potentially unrelated lineages cooperate to form transient multicellular groups. Unlike clonal multicellularity, aggregative multicellular organisms do not rely on kin selection instead other mechanisms maintain cooperation against cheater phenotypes that benefit from cooperators but do not contribute to groups. Spatiality with limited diffusion can facilitate group selection, as interactions among individuals are restricted to local neighbourhoods only. Selection for larger size (e.g. avoiding predation) may facilitate the emergence of aggregation, though it is unknown, whether and how much role such selection played during the evolution of aggregative multicellularity. We have investigated the effect of spatiality and the necessity of predation on the stability of aggregative multicellularity via individual-based modelling on the ecological timescale. We have examined whether aggregation facilitates the survival of cooperators in a temporally heterogeneous environment against cheaters, where only a subset of the population is allowed to periodically colonize a new, resource-rich habitat. Cooperators constitutively produce adhesive molecules to promote aggregation and propagule-formation while cheaters spare this expense to grow faster but cannot aggregate on their own, hence depending on cooperators for long-term survival. We have compared different population-level reproduction modes with and without individual selection (predation) to evaluate the different hypotheses. In a temporally homogeneous environment without propagule-based colonization, cheaters always win. Predation can benefit cooperators, but it is not enough to maintain the necessary cooperator amount in successive dispersals, either randomly or by fragmentation. Aggregation-based propagation however can ensure the adequate ratio of cooperators-to-cheaters in the propagule and is sufficient to do so even without predation. Spatiality combined with temporal heterogeneity helps cooperators via group selection, thus facilitating aggregative multicellularity. External stress selecting for larger size (e.g. predation) may facilitate aggregation, however, according to our results, it is neither necessary nor sufficient for aggregative multicellularity to be maintained when there is effective group-selection.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1553-7358}, orcid-numbers = {Zachar, István/0000-0002-3505-0628} } @article{MTMT:34842510, title = {Beyond yield and toward sustainability: Using applied ecology to support biodiversity conservation and food production}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34842510}, author = {Rader, R. and Nuñez, M.A. and Siqueira, T. and Zou, Y. and Macinnis-Ng, C. and Marini, L. and Batáry, Péter and Gordon, R. and Groves, L. and Barlow, J.}, doi = {10.1111/1365-2664.14653}, journal-iso = {J APPL ECOL}, journal = {JOURNAL OF APPLIED ECOLOGY}, unique-id = {34842510}, issn = {0021-8901}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1365-2664}, orcid-numbers = {Batáry, Péter/0000-0002-1017-6996} } @article{MTMT:34842502, title = {Pollination deficits and their relation with insect pollinator visitation are cultivar-dependent in an entomophilous crop}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34842502}, author = {Eeraerts, Maxime and Chabert, Stan and DeVetter, Lisa W. and Batáry, Péter and Ternest, John J. and Verheyen, Kris and Bobiwash, Kyle and Brouwer, Kayla and García, Daniel and Groot, G.

Although parasitic chytrids of phytoplankton might compete with zooplankton, they also indirectly support zooplankton populations through the “mycoloop”, which helps move energy and essential dietary molecules from inedible phytoplankton to zooplankton. Here, we consider how the mycoloop might fit into the biodiversity–ecosystem functioning (BEF) framework. BEF considers how more diverse communities can benefit ecosystem functions like zooplankton production. Chytrids are themselves part of pelagic food webs and they directly contribute to zooplankton diets through spore production and by increasing host edibility. The additional way that chytrids might support BEF is if they engage in “kill-the-winner” dynamics. In contrast to grazers, which result in “eat-the-edible” dynamics, kill-the-winner dynamics can occur for host-specific infectious diseases that control the abundance of dominant (in this case inedible) hosts and thus limit the competitive exclusion of poorer (in this case edible) competitors. Thus, if phytoplankton diversity provides functions, and chytrids support algal diversity, chytrids could indirectly favour edible phytoplankton. All three mechanisms are linked to diversity and therefore provide some “insurance” for zooplankton production against the impacts of eutrophication and warming. In our perspective piece, we explore evidence for the chytrid insurance hypothesis , identify exceptions and knowledge gaps, and outline future research directions.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1432-1939}, pages = {279-288}, orcid-numbers = {Abonyi, András/0000-0003-0593-5932; Fornberg, Johanna/0000-0001-5350-7401; Rasconi, Serena/0000-0001-6667-8904; Ptacnik, Robert/0000-0001-7176-7653; Kainz, Martin J./0000-0002-2388-1504; Lafferty, Kevin D./0000-0001-7583-4593} } @article{MTMT:34802730, title = {Joint environmental and social benefits from diversified agriculture}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34802730}, author = {Rasmussen, L.V. and Grass, I. and Mehrabi, Z. and Smith, O.M. and Bezner-Kerr, R. and Blesh, J. and Garibaldi, L.A. and Isaac, M.E. and Kennedy, C.M. and Wittman, H. and Batáry, Péter and Buchori, D. and Cerda, R. and Chará, J. and Crowder, D.W. and Darras, K. and DeMaster, K. and Garcia, K. and Gómez, M. and Gonthier, D. and Hidayat, P. and Hipólito, J. and Hirons, M. and Hoey, L. and James, D. and John, I. and Jones, A.D. and Karp, D.S. and Kebede, Y. and Kerr, C.B. and Klassen, S. and Kotowska, M. and Kreft, H. and Llanque, R. and Levers, C. and Lizcano, D.J. and Lu, A. and Madsen, S. and Marques, R.N. and Martins, P.B. and Melo, A. and Nyantakyi-Frimpong, H. and Olimpi, E.M. and Owen, J.P. and Pantevez, H. and Qaim, M. and Redlich, S. and Scherber, C. and Sciligo, A.R. and Snapp, S. and Snyder, W.E. and Steffan-Dewenter, I. and Stratton, A.E. and Taylor, J.M. and Tscharntke, T. and Valencia, V. and Vogel, C. and Kremen, C.}, doi = {10.1126/science.adj1914}, journal-iso = {SCIENCE}, journal = {SCIENCE}, volume = {384}, unique-id = {34802730}, issn = {0036-8075}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1095-9203}, pages = {87-93}, orcid-numbers = {Batáry, Péter/0000-0002-1017-6996} } @article{MTMT:34801337, title = {Filial cannibalism of Nabis pseudoferus is not evolutionarily optimal foraging strategy}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34801337}, author = {Garay, József László and Gámez, Manuel and Solano-Rojas, Yohan and López, Inmaculada and Castaño-Fernández, Ana Belén and Varga, Zoltán and Móri, Tamás F. and Csiszár, Villő and Cabello, Tomás}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-024-59574-7}, journal-iso = {SCI REP}, journal = {SCIENTIFIC REPORTS}, volume = {14}, unique-id = {34801337}, issn = {2045-2322}, abstract = {Using a recursion model with real parameters of Nabis pseudoferus, we show that its filial cannibalism is an optimal foraging strategy for life reproductive success, but it is not an evolutionarily optimal foraging strategy, since it cannot maximize the descendant’s number at the end of the reproductive season.
