Journal of Ecology Publishes Ecological Solutions to Global Food Security
June 28, 2017| |
The latest issue of Journal of Ecology has a special feature reviewing how plant ecological research can contribute to global food security. The Special Feature, with senior editors David Gibson and Richard Bardgett, was written by researchers representing a broad range of plant ecological disciplines. It consists of 10 new mini-reviews (free to access for a limited time) addressing a number of important ways in which ecological research in plant community diversity and structure, plant population dynamics and plant interactions, and plant–soil (below-ground) interactions, can inform global food security.
To read the reviews, visit the Journal of Ecology, or read this blog article.
