Ecosystem Services Provided by Grass-legume Pastures by Jose C. B. Dubeux, Lynn E. Sollenberger, Mark Mauldin, Liza Garcia

“…Ecosystem services (ES) provided by grasslands include not only products such as beef and milk (provisioning services), but also biological N2-fixation (BNF) and nutrient cycling (supporting ES), carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas mitigation, water catchment and purification, shade, windbreaks, habitat for pollinators and wildlife (regulating ES), and finally cultural (e.g., hunting, bird watching) and aesthetical ES. …”

Redbay Ambrosia Beetle Xyleborus glabratus Eichhoff (Insecta: Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) by Rajinder Mann, Jiri Hulcr, Jorge E. Peña, Lukasz Stelinski

“…Usually we consider ambrosia beetles beneficial because they accelerate the decay of dead trees, which is important for nutrient cycling in healthy forests. However, the redbay ambrosia beetle and its fungal symbiont transmit the causal pathogen of laurel wilt disease among plants in the Laurel family (Lauraceae). …”
