Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest trees - Chengjin Chu; James A. Lutz; Kamil Král; Tomáš Vrška; Xue Yin; Jonathan A. Myers; Iveren Abiem; Alfonso Alonso; Norm Bourg; David F.R.P. Burslem; Min Cao; Hazel Chapman; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2019)
Climate is widely recognised as an important determinant of the latitudinal diversity gradient. However, most existing studies make no distinction between direct and indirect effects of climate, which substantially hinders our understanding of how climate constrains biodiversity globally. Using data from 35 large forest plots, we test hypothesised relationships amongst climate, topography, forest structural attributes (stem abundance, tree size variation and stand basal area) and tree species richness to better understand drivers of latitudinal tree diversity patterns. Climate influences tree richness both directly, with more species in warm, moist, aseasonal climates and indirectly, with more species at higher stem abundance. These results imply direct limitation of species diversity by climatic stress and more rapid (co‐)evolution and narrower niche partitioning in warm climates. They also support the idea that increased numbers of individuals associated with high primary productivity are partitioned to support a greater number of species.

A new insight into lead (II) tolerance of environmental fungi based on a study of Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum - Da Tian; Zhongquan Jiang; Liu Jiang; Mu Su; Zheye Feng; Lin Zhang; Shimei Wang; Zhen Li; Shuijin Hu (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary Environmental microorganisms have been widely applied in heavy metal remediation. This study explored the mechanisms of lead tolerance of two typical filamentous fungi, Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum . It is shown that the mechanisms of reducing Pb toxicity by these two fungi have three major pathways. The secreted oxalic acid can react with Pb (II) to form insoluble Pb minerals, primarily lead oxalate. Then, the enhanced biosorption via forming new border of cell wall prevents the transportation of Pb (II) into hypha. In addition, the fungal activity could be maintained even at high Pb concentration due to the intracellular accumulation. It was confirmed that A. niger has the higher Pb tolerance (up to 1500 mg l −1 Pb level) compared with P. oxalicum (up to 1000 mg l −1 ). Meanwhile, Pb levels below 1000 mg l −1 partially stimulate the bioactivity of A. niger , which was confirmed by its elevated respiration (from 53 to 63 mg C l −1 medium h −1 ). This subsequently enhanced microbial functions of A. niger to resist Pb toxicity. A better understanding of Pb tolerance of these two fungi sheds a bright future of applying them to remediate lead‐contaminated environments.

Geographical and temporal origins of terrestrial vertebrates endemic to Taiwan - Jiekun He; Zefang Gao; Yuanyuan Su; Siliang Lin; Haisheng Jiang (Journal of Biogeography, 2018)
Aim Phylogeographical studies of Taiwan have advanced our knowledge of the origins of its fauna, but the discrepancies raise issues related to the interpretation of single‐taxon studies. Here, we provide a synthesis of the biogeographical histories of multiple terrestrial vertebrates endemic to Taiwan and infer the colonization processes within the context of geological and climatic events. Location Taiwan and neighbouring land masses. Taxon Terrestrial vertebrates. Methods We conducted a meta‐analysis of 28 phylogenetic studies of 33 endemic Taiwanese terrestrial vertebrates to summarize the insights into their source regions and divergence times. We used dispersal–extinction–cladogenesis models to reconstruct the ancestral ranges of 54 endemic species based on a recently published time‐calibrated phylogenetic tree. By constructing a frequency histogram that quantified the number and timing of divergence events within 1 Myr bins, we inferred the spatiotemporal colonization patterns of endemic Taiwanese species. Results The results from 28 phylogenetic studies revealed that South China is the main source region of endemic Taiwanese species. However, based on a more comprehensive time tree, the ancestral area reconstruction analyses indicated that endemic species are predominately of Eastern Himalayan origin. Both datasets highlighted a temporal pattern that the majority of colonization events of terrestrial vertebrates endemic to Taiwan occurred from the early Pliocene ( c . 5 Ma) onwards, and these events were temporally congruent with the geological estimates of the emergence of Taiwan Island. Main conclusions Terrestrial vertebrates endemic to Taiwan reached the island over the last 5 Myr from a variety of zoogeographical regions. In contrast to the traditional notion, the Eastern Himalayas is the most important source region of endemic Taiwanese species, followed by South China and Indochina. In addition to the land bridge, transoceanic dispersal provided another potential mode for species to colonize Taiwan.

Global importance of large‐diameter trees - James A. Lutz; Tucker J. Furniss; Daniel J. Johnson; Stuart J. Davies; David Allen; Alfonso Alonso; Kristina J.

Aim To examine the contribution of large‐diameter trees to biomass, stand structure, and species richness across forest biomes. Location Global. Time period Early 21st century. Major taxa studied Woody plants. Methods We examined the contribution of large trees to forest density, richness and biomass using a global network of 48 large (from 2 to 60 ha) forest plots representing 5,601,473 stems across 9,298 species and 210 plant families. This contribution was assessed using three metrics: the largest 1% of trees ≥ 1 cm diameter at breast height (DBH), all trees ≥ 60 cm DBH, and those rank‐ordered largest trees that cumulatively comprise 50% of forest biomass. Results Averaged across these 48 forest plots, the largest 1% of trees ≥ 1 cm DBH comprised 50% of aboveground live biomass, with hectare‐scale standard deviation of 26%. Trees ≥ 60 cm DBH comprised 41% of aboveground live tree biomass. The size of the largest trees correlated with total forest biomass ( r 2 = .62, p r 2 = .45, p r 2 = .33, p r 2 = .17, p = .002). The concentration of biomass in the largest 1% of trees declined with increasing absolute latitude ( r 2 = .46, p r 2 = .31, p r 2 = .26, p Main conclusions Because large‐diameter trees constitute roughly half of the mature forest biomass worldwide, their dynamics and sensitivities to environmental change represent potentially large controls on global forest carbon cycling. We recommend managing forests for conservation of existing large‐diameter trees or those that can soon reach large diameters as a simple way to conserve and potentially enhance ecosystem services.

Glycerol enhances fungal germination at the water‐activity limit for life - Andrew Stevenson; Philip G. Hamill; Ángel Medina; Gerhard Kminek; John D. Rummel; Jan Dijksterhuis; David J. Timson; Naresh Magan; Su‐Lin L. Leong; John E. Hallsworth (Environmental Microbiology, 2017)
Summary For the most‐extreme fungal xerophiles, metabolic activity and cell division typically halts between 0.700 and 0.640 water activity (approximately 70.0–64.0% relative humidity). Here, we investigate whether glycerol can enhance xerophile germination under acute water‐activity regimes, using an experimental system which represents the biophysical limit of Earth's biosphere. Spores from a variety of species, including Aspergillus penicillioides , Eurotium halophilicum , Xerochrysium xerophilum (formerly Chrysosporium xerophilum ) and Xeromyces bisporus , were produced by cultures growing on media supplemented with glycerol (and contained up to 189 mg glycerol g dry spores −1 ). The ability of these spores to germinate, and the kinetics of germination, were then determined on a range of media designed to recreate stresses experienced in microbial habitats or anthropogenic systems (with water‐activities from 0.765 to 0.575). For A. penicillioides , Eurotium amstelodami , E. halophilicum , X. xerophilum and X. bisporus , germination occurred at lower water‐activities than previously recorded (0.640, 0.685, 0.651, 0.664 and 0.637 respectively). In addition, the kinetics of germination at low water‐activities were substantially faster than those reported previously. Extrapolations indicated theoretical water‐activity minima below these values; as low as 0.570 for A. penicillioides and X. bisporus . Glycerol is present at high concentrations (up to molar levels) in many types of microbial habitat. We discuss the likely role of glycerol in expanding the water‐activity limit for microbial cell function in relation to temporal constraints and location of the microbial cell or habitat. The findings reported here have also critical implications for understanding the extremes of Earth's biosphere; for understanding the potency of disease‐causing microorganisms; and in biotechnologies that operate at the limits of microbial function.

Daytime warming lowers community temporal stability by reducing the abundance of dominant, stable species - Zhongling Yang; Qian Zhang; Fanglong Su; Chunhui Zhang; Zhichao Pu; Jianyang Xia; Shiqiang Wan; Lin Jiang (Global Change Biology, 2017)
Daytime warming and nighttime warming have the potential to influence plant community structure and ecosystem functions. However, their impacts on ecological stability remain largely unexplored. We conducted an eight‐year field experiment to compare the effects of daytime and nighttime warming on the temporal stability of a temperate steppe in northern China. Our results showed that the cover and stability of dominant species, stability of subordinate species, and compensatory dynamics among species strongly influenced community‐level stability. However, daytime, but not nighttime, warming significantly reduced community temporal stability mainly through the reduction in the abundance of dominant, stable species. These findings demonstrate the differential effects of daytime and nighttime warming on community stability and emphasize the importance of understanding the changes of dominant species for accurately predicting community dynamics under climate warming.

Did a Miocene–Pliocene island isolation sequence structure diversification of funnel web spiders in the Taiwan‐Ryukyu Archipelago? - Yong‐Chao Su; Rafe M. Brown; Yung‐Hau Chang; Chung‐Ping Lin; I‐Min Tso (Journal of Biogeography, 2016)
Aim We tested the competing hypotheses concerning the relative importance of Pleistocene versus Miocene–Pliocene geological events for the formation of endemism in an Asian archipelago using the Macrothele taiwanensis (Hexathelidae) species group. Location Taiwan‐Ryukyu Archipelago. Methods We estimated phylogenetic trees from cytochrome oxidase I subunit ( COI ) and 16S rRNA ( 16S ) gene regions and employed Bayesian ancestral range reconstructions to investigate previously debated models of lineage diversification in the Taiwan‐Ryukyu Archipelago. To evaluate alternative geological timeframes for their importance in shaping the genetic structure of funnel web spiders, we used five time calibration schemes to estimate timing of divergence, infer ancestral distributions, and to reconstruct historical demographic changes in each lineage. We tested taxonomic boundaries with two species delimitation procedures. Results Our results indicate a north‐to‐south isolation sequence of the M. taiwanensis group: the Amami lineage diverged first, then Yaeyama, and finally the Taiwanese lineages. Divergence time estimation and population demographic change analyses indicate that Pleistocene climate fluctuations minimally impacted the genetic structure of these spiders. Instead, estimated divergence events correspond to Miocene–Pliocene geological events, strongly supporting a much older timeframe for diversification. The results of species delimitation analyses coincide well with morphological differences observed among the island populations, reinforcing inferred species boundaries, and at least three potential cryptic species were statistically detected within Taiwan. Main conclusions Miocene–Pliocene geological events appear to have contributed disproportionately to diversification in the M. taiwanensis species group. The clear association between geographical area, genetic structure and statistical species delimitation strongly supports an interpretation of allopatric speciation. We advocate comparing our results with those derived from additional study organisms with similar life histories to further explore the Miocene–Pliocene diversification hypothesis.

Stochastic dilution effects weaken deterministic effects of niche‐based processes in species rich forests - Xugao Wang; Thorsten Wiegand; Nathan J. B. Kraft; Nathan G. Swenson; Stuart J. Davies; Zhanqing Hao; Robert Howe; Yiching Lin; Keping Ma; Xiangcheng Mi; Sheng‐Hsin Su; I‐Fang Sun; et al. (Ecology, 2016)
Recent theory predicts that stochastic dilution effects may result in species‐rich communities with statistically independent species spatial distributions, even if the underlying ecological processes structuring the community are driven by deterministic niche differences. Stochastic dilution is a consequence of the stochastic geometry of biodiversity where the identities of the nearest neighbors of individuals of a given species are largely unpredictable. Under such circumstances, the outcome of deterministic species interactions may vary greatly among individuals of a given species. Consequently, nonrandom patterns in the biotic neighborhoods of species, which might be expected from coexistence or community assembly theory (e.g., individuals of a given species are neighbored by phylogenetically similar species), are weakened or do not emerge, resulting in statistical independence of species spatial distributions. We used data on phylogenetic and functional similarity of tree species in five large forest dynamics plots located across a gradient of species richness to test predictions of the stochastic dilution hypothesis. To quantify the biotic neighborhood of a focal species we used the mean phylogenetic (or functional) dissimilarity of the individuals of the focal species to all species within a local neighborhood. We then compared the biotic neighborhood of species to predictions from stochastic null models to test if a focal species was surrounded by more or less similar species than expected by chance. The proportions of focal species that showed spatial independence with respect to their biotic neighborhoods increased with total species richness. Locally dominant, high‐abundance species were more likely to be surrounded by species that were statistically more similar or more dissimilar than expected by chance. Our results suggest that stochasticity may play a stronger role in shaping the spatial structure of species rich tropical forest communities than it does in species poorer forests. These findings represent an important step towards understanding the factors that govern the spatial configuration of local biotic communities. The stochastic dilution effect is a simple geometric mechanism that can explain why species’ spatial distributions in species‐rich communities approximate independence from their biotic neighborhood, even if deterministic niche processes are in effect.

Genome and physiology of the ascomycete filamentous fungus X eromyces bisporus , the most xerophilic organism isolated to date - Su‐lin L. Leong; Henrik Lantz; Olga V. Pettersson; Jens C. Frisvad; Ulf Thrane; Hermann J. Heipieper; Jan Dijksterhuis; Manfred Grabherr; Mats Pettersson; Christian Tellgren‐Roth; Johan Schnürer (Environmental Microbiology, 2015)
Summary X eromyces bisporus can grow on sugary substrates down to 0.61, an extremely low water activity. Its genome size is approximately 22 Mb . Gene clusters encoding for secondary metabolites were conspicuously absent; secondary metabolites were not detected experimentally. Thus, in its ‘dry’ but nutrient‐rich environment, X . bisporus appears to have relinquished abilities for combative interactions. Elements to sense/signal osmotic stress, e.g. HogA pathway, were present in X . bisporus . However, transcriptomes at optimal (∼ 0.89) versus low a w (0.68) revealed differential expression of only a few stress‐related genes; among these, certain (not all) steps for glycerol synthesis were upregulated. X eromyces bisporus increased glycerol production during hypo‐ and hyper‐osmotic stress, and much of its wet weight comprised water and rinsable solutes; leaked solutes may form a protective slime. X eromyces bisporus and other food‐borne moulds increased membrane fatty acid saturation as water activity decreased. Such modifications did not appear to be transcriptionally regulated in X . bisporus ; however, genes modulating sterols, phospholipids and the cell wall were differentially expressed. X eromyces bisporus was previously proposed to be a ‘chaophile’, preferring solutes that disorder biomolecular structures. Both X . bisporus and the closely related xerophile, X erochrysium xerophilum , with low membrane unsaturation indices, could represent a phylogenetic cluster of ‘chaophiles’.

Hopping out of Mindanao: Miocene‐Pliocene geological processes and cross‐island dispersal as major drivers of diversity for Philippine treehoppers - Yong‐Chao Su; Jo‐Fan Wang; Reagan Joseph T. Villanueva; Olga M. Nuñeza; Chung‐Ping Lin (Journal of Biogeography, 2014)
Aim We investigated the biogeographical history of an endemic Philippine treehopper, Pyrgonota bifoliata (Membracidae), to test the effect of Neogene geological events and Pleistocene climate change in generating speciation within the Philippines. Location The Philippine archipelago. Methods Phylogenies were reconstructed based on the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I subunit ( cox1 ) and nuclear wingless ( wg ) genes using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian criteria. Divergence times were estimated in beast based on a range of mutation rates. Ancestral ranges were reconstructed using rasp (Reconstruct Ancestral State in Phylogenies) and Bayesian stochastic search variable selection (BSSVS). Species boundaries were tested using the Bayesian general mixed Yule coalescent ( bGMYC ) and Bayesian phylogenetic and phylogeography (BPP) methods. Results Pyrgonota bifoliata showed one of the lowest levels of between‐Pleistocene island genetic variation among all the taxa examined. Most Pleistocene aggregate island complex ( PAIC ) lineages and extant P. bifoliata originated before the onset of the first extensive Pleistocene glacial cycle. Ancestral P. bifoliata originated in the late Miocene from Mindanao, followed by a sequential northwards colonization of the Visayan Islands and Luzon in the Pliocene–early Pleistocene, which coincided with the spatial reorganization of the Philippines. The statistically delimited nine provisional species of what we now view as the P. bifoliata species complex correspond to current island boundaries and specialized host plants. Main conclusions The temporally calibrated phylogeny of P. bifoliata represents the first invertebrate study to support the hypothesis that Miocene–Pliocene geological events and consequent cross‐island dispersal were pivotal promoters of species diversity in the Philippines. We hypothesize that ecological adaptation to specialized host plants, together with either local selection or genetic drift through within‐island allopatric isolation, present a plausible in situ speciation mechanism for the origin of these herbivorous insects.

Temporal variability of forest communities: empirical estimates of population change in 4000 tree species - Ryan A. Chisholm; Richard Condit; K. Abd. Rahman; Patrick J. Baker; Sarayudh Bunyavejchewin; Yu‐Yun Chen; George Chuyong; H. S. Dattaraja; Stuart Davies; Corneille E. N. Ewango; C. V. S. Gunatilleke; I. A. U. Nimal Gunatilleke; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2014)
Long‐term surveys of entire communities of species are needed to measure fluctuations in natural populations and elucidate the mechanisms driving population dynamics and community assembly. We analysed changes in abundance of over 4000 tree species in 12 forests across the world over periods of 6–28 years. Abundance fluctuations in all forests are large and consistent with population dynamics models in which temporal environmental variance plays a central role. At some sites we identify clear environmental drivers, such as fire and drought, that could underlie these patterns, but at other sites there is a need for further research to identify drivers. In addition, cross‐site comparisons showed that abundance fluctuations were smaller at species‐rich sites, consistent with the idea that stable environmental conditions promote higher diversity. Much community ecology theory emphasises demographic variance and niche stabilisation; we encourage the development of theory in which temporal environmental variance plays a central role.

Understanding the dynamics and underlying mechanism of carbon exchange between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere is one of the key issues in global change research. In this study, we quantified the carbon fluxes in different terrestrial ecosystems in China, and analyzed their spatial variation and environmental drivers based on the long‐term observation data of China FLUX sites and the published data from other flux sites in China. The results indicate that gross ecosystem productivity ( GEP ), ecosystem respiration ( ER ), and net ecosystem productivity ( NEP ) of terrestrial ecosystems in China showed a significantly latitudinal pattern, declining linearly with the increase of latitude. However, GEP , ER , and NEP did not present a clear longitudinal pattern. The carbon sink functional areas of terrestrial ecosystems in China were mainly located in the subtropical and temperate forests, coastal wetlands in eastern China, the temperate meadow steppe in the northeast China, and the alpine meadow in eastern edge of Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau. The forest ecosystems had stronger carbon sink than grassland ecosystems. The spatial patterns of GEP and ER in China were mainly determined by mean annual precipitation ( MAP ) and mean annual temperature ( MAT ), whereas the spatial variation in NEP was largely explained by MAT . The combined effects of MAT and MAP explained 79%, 62%, and 66% of the spatial variations in GEP , ER , and NEP , respectively. The GEP , ER , and NEP in different ecosystems in China exhibited ‘positive coupling correlation’ in their spatial patterns. Both ER and NEP were significantly correlated with GEP , with 68% of the per‐unit GEP contributed to ER and 29% to NEP . MAT and MAP affected the spatial patterns of ER and NEP mainly by their direct effects on the spatial pattern of GEP .
