Kelp forests are among the most extensive and productive coastal ecosystems, yet they remain underrepresented in global conservation policy despite widespread declines driven by interacting global- (i.e., ocean warming, marine heatwaves) to local-scale stressors. At the same time, kelp conservation and restoration efforts are expanding rapidly across regions, but measures of success and syntheses tend to primarily focus on eco...

Since the beginning of industrialization, the economic viability of manufacturing companies relied on the exploitation of natural resources. From 2000 to 2019, the global consumption of raw materials surged by 65%, with 70% of these materials being non‐renewable. Addressing this unsustainable trajectory, the United Nations emphasizes “Responsible consumption and production” as a sustainable development goal (SDG 12), advocatin...

Differences in functioning among various genotypes of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can determine their fitness under specific environmental conditions, although knowledge of the underlying mechanisms still is very fragmented. Here we compared seven homokaryotic isolates (genotypes) of Rhizophagus irregularis , aiming to characterize the range of intraspecific variability with respect to hyphal exploration of organic nitro...
