TL;DR: Garnett and Christidis as mentioned in this paper argued that the lack of governance of taxonomy damages conservation efforts, harms the credibility of science, and is costly to society, and pointed out that the scientific community's failure to govern taxonomy threatens the effectiveness of global efforts to halt biodiversity loss.
Rust fungi and global change
TL;DR: While rusts thrive in high-humidity environments, they can also survive in desert habitats, and as a group their environmental tolerance is large, with no conclusive change in their overall prevalence predictable to date.

TL;DR: In this paper, a list of 80 species belonging to Ascomycotina and Basidiomycotina has been compiled and 7 species were added to the Turkish mycoflora as new records.

Community-based biotic effects as determinants of tree resistance to pests and pathogens
TL;DR: Reviewing recent advances in how forest tree resistance to pests and diseases might be influenced by manipulation of characteristics of the trees’ community of associated plants and other organisms finds it possible to formulate predictive rules to protect forests using only community-based methods.

Unbiased inference of plant flowering phenology from biological recording data
TL;DR: A new Bayesian statistical model is developed to infer the seasonal pattern of plant ‘recordability’ and provides new potential for gaining useful insights into large-scale variation in peak phenology across a much broader range of plant species than have previously been studied.
