Quantum graphs: Different perspectives, homomorphisms and quantum automorphisms Open
We undertake a study of the notion of a quantum graph over arbitrary finite-dimensional -algebras equipped with arbitrary faithful states. Quantum graphs are realised principally as either certain operators on , the quantum adjacency matri…
Correction to “Beyond species richness and community composition: Using plant functional diversity to measure restoration success in jarrah forest” [ <i>Applied Vegetation Science</i> , 24(3), e12607] Open
Standish, R.J., Gove, A.D., Grigg, A.H., & Daws, M.I. (2021) Beyond species richness and community composition: Using plant functional diversity to measure restoration success in jarrah forest. Applied Vegetation Science, 24(3), e12607. ht…

Phosphorus uptake and toxicity are delimited by mycorrhizal symbiosis in P-sensitive <i>Eucalyptus marginata</i> but not in P-tolerant <i>Acacia celastrifolia</i> Open
Many plant species from regions with ancient, highly weathered nutrient-depleted soils have specialized adaptations for acquiring phosphorus (P) and are sensitive to excess P supply. Mycorrhizal associations may regulate P uptake at high e…
Canary in the coal mine: Lessons from the Jarrah Forest suggest long-term negative effects of phosphorus fertilizer on biodiverse restoration after surface mining Open
Despite nutrient enrichment having widely reported negative impacts on biodiversity, fertilizer is routinely applied in post mining restoration to enhance plant growth and establishment. Focusing on surface mine restoration (predominately …
Phosphorus supply affects seedling growth of mycorrhizal but not cluster-root forming jarrah-forest species Open
Aims Fertiliser is often used to kick-start ecological restoration despite growing evidence of the potentially negative impacts on plant diversity. Jarrah ( Eucalyptus marginata ) forest species growing on nutrient (especially phosphorus) …
Phosphorus uptake and toxicity is delimited by mycorrhizal symbiosis in P-sensitive <i>Eucalyptus marginata</i> but not in P-tolerant <i>Acacia celastrifolia</i> Open
Many plant species from regions with ancient, highly-weathered nutrient-depleted soils have specialised adaptations for acquiring P and are sensitive to excess P-supply. Mycorrhizal associations may regulate P-uptake at high external P-con…
The benefits of fertiliser application on tree growth are transient in restored jarrah forest Open
The application of fertiliser, to both replace nutrients lost during mining and facilitate rapid vegetation re-establishment, is viewed as a key step in the restoration of post-mining landscapes. However, few studies have examined the long…
Seeing the Forest for the Trees: Fertiliser Increases Tree Growth but Decreases Understorey Diversity in the Northern Jarrah Forest, Southwest Australia Open
Forestry science and practice suggests thinning and fertiliser increase the growth rates of individual trees. In a recent paper reporting on a long-term experiment in the Northern Jarrah Forest, Bhandari et al. (2021) found positive effect…

AusTraits – a curated plant trait database for the Australian flora Open
We introduce the AusTraits database - a compilation of measurements of plant traits for taxa in the Australian flora (hereafter AusTraits). AusTraits synthesises data on 375 traits across 29230 taxa from field campaigns, published literatu…
Sensitivity of seedling growth to phosphorus supply in six tree species of the Australian Great Western Woodlands Open
Many Australian native plants from regions with ancient, highly weathered soils have specialised adaptations for acquiring phosphorus (P) and can exhibit negative effects of excess P supply on growth and survival. Despite this, fertiliser …
Applied phosphorus has long-term impacts on vegetation responses in restored jarrah forest Open
Nutrient enrichment can result in long-term negative impacts on a range of native and semi-native plant communities worldwide. Despite this knowledge, fertiliser application is generally viewed as a necessary step in re-establishing native…
Too much of a good thing: phosphorus over-fertilisation in rehabilitated landscapes of high biodiversity value Open
Fertilisers supply essential nutrients lacking in post-mining substrates in nearly all terrestrial rehabilitation \nschemes. Regulators typically require the rapid revegetation of post-mining lands as an indicator of early \nrehabilitation…
Thermal buffering capacity of the germination phenotype across the environmental envelope of the Cactaceae Open
Recruitment from seeds is among the most vulnerable stage for plants as global temperatures change. While germination is the means by which the vast majority of the world's flora regenerate naturally, a framework for accurately predicting …
Alternating temperature combined with darkness resets base temperature for germination (<i>T</i><sub>b</sub>) in photoblastic seeds of <i>Lippia</i> and <i>Aloysia</i> (Verbenaceae) Open
Thermal time models for seed germination assume a continuum of rate responses in the sub‐optimal temperature range. Generally, the models describe germination performance in non‐dormant seeds at constant temperatures, yet alternating tempe…
