From pollen provision to pollinator: Species‐specific sterol assimilation by wild bees in urban landscapes

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1906-1920, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

Crowdsourcing the Frontier: Advancing Hybrid Physics‐ML Climate Simulation via a $50,000 Kaggle Competition

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Subgrid machine‐learning (machine learning [ML]) parameterizations have the potential to introduce a new generation of climate models that incorporate the effects of higher‐resolution physics without incurring the prohibitive computational cost associated with more explicit physics‐based simulations.

Differential effects of agricultural expansion on wild bee taxonomic and functional diversity

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 878-892, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollinators, especially bees, are in global decline, threatening biodiversity and food security. While intensive agriculture is a primary driver, its impact on bee functional diversity—particularly in the diverse Mediterranean region—remains understudied.

Exopolysaccharide‐Based Microencapsulation of Plant Growth‐Promoting Bacillus Strains Improves Germination, Growth, and Yield of Chilean Common Bean Cultivars

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial biostimulants offer sustainable alternatives to chemical fertilizers in legume cultivation by enhancing seed germination, nutrient uptake, and stress resilience, while maintaining the yield. However, their practical application is often limited by weak shelf life and reduced viability under environmental conditions. In this study, we

When honeybees come to town: Critical aspects of urban beekeeping and opportunities for regulation

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 528-540, March 2026.
Abstract Urban areas are increasingly valued for their role in conserving wild pollinators. Honeybees are often regarded as ambassador species for pollinator conservation, and beekeeping is frequently perceived as a pro‐biodiversity activity, which has become highly popular in urban areas.

Phylogenomics and biogeography of the cleptoparasitic bee genus Triepeolus Robertson (Hymenoptera: Apidae), with a revised subgeneric classification of Triepeolus and its sister genus, Epeolus Latreille Filogenómica y biogeografía del género de abejas cleptoparásitas Triepeolus Robertson (Hymenoptera: Apidae), con una clasificación subgenérica revisada para Triepeolus y su género hermano, Epeolus Latreille

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
A subgeneric classification is proposed for Triepeolus—the second‐largest genus of cleptoparasitic apid bees in the world—and its sister genus Epeolus, with support from a newly presented dated phylogeny. Phylogenomic analysis based on ultraconserved elements revealed strong support for the monophyly of Triepeolus, which diverged from Epeolus sometime ...
