Neighbourhood species richness and drought-tolerance traits modulate tree growth and δ13C responses to drought

F. Schnabel, K. E. Barry, S. Eckhardt, J. Guillemot, H. Geilmann, A. Kahl, H. Moossen, J. Bauhus, C. Wirth

The study examines how neighbourhood species richness and drought-tolerance traits influence tree growth and δ13C responses to drought in experimental tree communities.

Hydraulic diversity stabilizes productivity in a large-scale subtropical tree biodiversity experiment

F. Schnabel, X. Liu, M. Kunz, K. E. Barry, F. J. Bongers, H. Bruelheide, A. Fichtner, W. Härdtle, S. Li, C.-T. Pfaff, B. Schmid, J. A. Schwarz, Z. Tang, B. Yang, J. Bauhus, , C. Wirth

The paper shows that tree species richness stabilizes forest productivity through increased species asynchrony and hydraulic trait diversity, not community-weighted means.

Plant traits are poor predictors of long-term ecosystem functioning

F. van der Plas, T. Schroeder-Georgi, A. Weigelt, K. E. Barry, S. Meyer, A. Alzate, R. Barnard, N. Buchmann, H. de Kroon, A. Ebeling, N. Eisenhauer, C. Engels, M. Fischer, G. Gleixner, A. Hildebrandt, , C. Wirth

This study shows that plant traits poorly predict long-term ecosystem functioning, with only moderate explanatory power across years.

A universal scaling method for biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships

K. E. Barry, G. A. Pinter, J. W. Strini, K. Yang, I. G. Lauko, S. A. Schnitzer, J. Cowles, A. S. Mori, L. Williams, P. B. Reich, A. J. Wright

The paper develops a method to upscale biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships using macroecological patterns, showing that species-area and biomass-area curves predict biodiversity-biomass relationships at larger scales.

The Role of fosA in Challenges with Fosfomycin Susceptibility Testing of Multispecies Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase-Producing Clinical Isolates

Z. S. Elliott, K. E. Barry, H. L. Cox, N. Stoesser, J. Carroll, K. B. Vegesana, S. M. Kotay, A. E. Sheppard, A. M. Wailan, D. W. Crook, H. Parikh, A. J. Mathers

This study evaluates fosfomycin susceptibility testing in KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates and finds that fosA gene presence affects test accuracy, with sodium phosphonoformate improving results.

Droplet rather than Aerosol Mediated Dispersion is the Primary Mechanism of Bacterial transmission from Contaminated Hand Washing Sink Traps

S. M. Kotay, R. M. Donlan, C. Ganim, K. E. Barry, B. E. Christensen, A. J. Mathers

The study investigates bacterial transmission from contaminated sink traps, finding that droplet dispersion, not aerosolization, is the primary mechanism, with bacteria associated with larger droplets that settle quickly.
