Project description:Climate change forecasts increase the susceptibility of forest due to longer drier seasons. The adaptive management protocols have highlighted the reduction of the forest densification to improve their vulnerability to extreme climate events (i.g. drought). One of this sensitive woody species to climate change is the Abies pinsapo, a relic conifer tree endemic from the southern Spain. Previous works have shown changes in their trends because of the climate change action, being carried out experimental thinning management in their lowest distribution limit, in Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park (Malaga). Our objective is to evaluate the water improvements of thinned trees in terms of light availability by means of a shading treatment in those thinned trees. To do that we have evaluated the synergic effect of ecophysiology, metabolomics and transcriptomics in control, thinning and thinning+shading plots in wet and dry seasons for two years. The results showed strong differences between summer and spring seasons at the three studied levels. The water deficit shows a greater influence than light exposure in the ecophysiology and metabolomics tree response. And the transcriptomics suggested an improvement of thinned trees when light exposure was reduced. Our results support the necessity of adaptive forest management in order to improve the conservation status of A. pinsapo forest. The combination of different levels of tree response is paramount to understand and predict the tree physiology under water and light stress conditions.

Project description:Deadwood plays a crucial role in forest ecosystems, but we have limited information about the specific fungal taxa and extracellular lignocellulolytic enzymes that are actively involved in the decomposition process in situ. To investigate this, we studied the fungal metaproteome of twelve deadwood tree species in a replicated, eight-year experiment. Key fungi observed included genera of white-rot fungi (Basidiomycota, e.g. Armillaria, Hypholoma, Mycena, Ischnoderma, Resinicium), brown-rot fungi (Basidiomycota, e.g. Fomitopsis, Antrodia), diverse Ascomycota including xylariacous soft-rot fungi (e.g. Xylaria, Annulohypoxylon, Nemania) and various wood-associated endophytes and saprotrophs (Ascocoryne, Trichoderma, Talaromyces). These fungi used a whole range of extracellular lignocellulolytic enzymes, such as peroxidases, peroxide-producing enzymes, laccases, cellulases, glucosidases, hemicellulases (xylanases) and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs). Both the fungi and enzymes were tree-specific, with specialists and generalists being distinguished by network analysis. The extracellular enzymatic system was highly redundant, with many enzyme classes of different origins present simultaneously in all decaying logs. Strong correlations were found between peroxide-producing enzymes (oxidases) and peroxidases as well as LPMOs, and between ligninolytic, cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes. The overall protein abundance of lignocellulolytic enzymes was reduced by up to -30% in gymnosperm logs compared to angiosperm logs, and gymnosperms lacked ascomycetous enzymes, which may have contributed to the lower decomposition of gymnosperm wood. In summary, we have obtained a comprehensive and detailed insight into the enzymatic machinery of wood-inhabiting fungi in several temperate forest tree species, which can help to improve our understanding of the complex ecological processes in forest ecosystems.

Project description:The decomposition of large woody material is an important process in forest carbon cycling and nutrient release. Cord-forming saprotrophic basidiomycete fungi create non-resource limited mycelial networks between decomposing branches, logs and tree stumps on the forest floor where colonisation of new resource is often associated with the replacement of incumbent decay communities. Cord-forming species often dominate competition hierarchies in controlled paired antagonism experiments and have been shown to translocate resource to support colonisation and produce inhibitory metabolites. To date, antagonism experiments have mostly placed competing fungi in direct contact, while in nature cord-forming saprobes encounter colonised wood as mycelia in a network. Here we used soil-based microcosms that allowed foraging cord-forming Hypholoma fasciculare to encounter a wood block colonised by Trametes versicolor and conducted transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of the interaction. Cellular processes and metabolic responses to the competitive interaction were identified, where protein turnover featured strongly for both species. H. fasciculare demonstrated an exploitative profile with increased transcription of enzymes that targeted carbohydrate polymers of the substrate and in RNA and ribosome processing. T. versicolor showed a shift in signalling, energy generation and amino acid metabolism. Putative genes involved in secondary metabolite production were identified in both species. This study highlights the importance of ecologically-relevant experimental design when considering complex processes such as community development during wood decomposition

Project description:The dataset comprises the most abundant and largest (by stem diameter) tree species in the Barro Colorado Island 50-ha forest dynamics plot in Panama, as well as all local species in 7 of the most species-rich genera in the plot: Eugenia (Myrtaceae), Inga (Moraceae), Miconia/Clidemia (Melastomataceae), Ocotea/Nectandra (Lauraceae), Piper (Piperaceae), Protium (Burseraceae), Psychotria/Palicourea (Rubiaceae). Leaf samples were extracted with 90:10 methanol:water pH 5 and analyzed using methods described in Sedio et al. 2017 Applications in Plant Sciences (doi:10.1002/aps3.1033).

Project description:Soil microbial community is a complex blackbox that requires a multi-conceptual approach (Hultman et al., 2015; Bastida et al., 2016). Most methods focus on evaluating total microbial community and fail to determine its active fraction (Blagodatskaya & Kuzyakov 2013). This issue has ecological consequences since the behavior of the active community is more important (or even essential) and can be different to that of the total community. The sensitivity of the active microbial community can be considered as a biological mechanism that regulates the functional responses of soil against direct (i.e. forest management) and indirect (i.e. climate change) human-induced alterations. Indeed, it has been highglihted that the diversity of the active community (analyzed by metaproteomics) is more connected to soil functionality than the that of the total community (analyzed by 16S rRNA gene and ITS sequencing) (Bastida et al., 2016). Recently, the increasing application of soil metaproteomics is providing unprecedented, in-depth characterisation of the composition and functionality of active microbial communities and overall, allowing deeper insights into terrestrial microbial ecology (Chourey et al., 2012; Bastida et al., 2015, 2016; Keiblinger et al., 2016). Here, we predict the responsiveness of the soil microbial community to forest management in a climate change scenario. Particularly, we aim: i) to evaluate the impacts of 6-years of induced drought on the diversity, biomass and activity of the microbial community in a semiarid forest ecocosystem; and ii) to discriminate if forest management (thinning) influences the resistance of the microbial community against induced drought. Furthermore, we aim to ascertain if the functional diversity of each phylum is a trait that can be used to predict changes in microbial abundance and ecosystem functioning.

Project description:Biotic and abiotic stresses are predicted to be the main drivers of forest tree decline and mortality in a climatic change scenario. It occurs, for example, in Quercus ilex, the main component of the Mediterranean forest, becoming a major environmental, economic and social concern. The decline syndrome is the result of factors interrelated in time and space. Breeding, through variability and elite genotype selection, is the only plausible strategy for forest management and conservation in nondomesticated, orphan species as is the case of the genus Quercus. By using a shotgun proteomics approach, the effect and the responses to combined drought stress and pathogen (Phytophthora cinnamomi) have been analyzed in two Holm oak populations with contrasting responses to each individual stress. Proteomics data are correlated with that of plant survival, damage symptoms, leaf chemical composition and physiological phenotypes (water content and photosynthetic activity). Changes in the protein profile depended on the population, stress, and time, with some consistent upaccumulated proteins related to synthesis, primary and secondary metabolism, and cell wall are discussed.
