Seeing herbaria in a new light: leaf reflectance spectroscopy unlocks trait and classification modeling in plant biodiversity collections

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Reflectance spectroscopy is a rapid method for estimating traits and discriminating species. Spectral libraries from herbarium specimens represent an untapped resource for generating broad phenomic datasets across space, time, and taxa. We conducted a proof‐of‐concept study using trait data and spectra from herbarium specimens up to 179 yr old,

Domestication‐Selected Promoter Insertion in WRKY17 Increases Cadmium Sensitivity in Apple

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing industrialisation and human activities, heavy metal pollution has become a serious environmental concern, particularly cadmium (Cd) contamination. This study reveals significant differences in Cd tolerance between wild apple (Malus spp.) and cultivated apple (Malus domestica).

Improved Longan Genome Assembly Reveals Insights Into Flowering Mechanisms

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longan is an exotic tropical fruit crop and exhibits off‐season flowering induced by potassium chlorate (KClO3), though the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We assembled a high‐quality, 441.5 Mb genome of variety ‘Shixia’, with a contig N50 at 28.1 Mb, 29, 325 protein‐coding genes, 26 telomeres and 15 centromeres.

Macronutrient composition in pollen affects development and survival in wild bees

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Small carpenter bees (Ceratina calcarata) were reared on diets formulated with black poplar and dandelion pollen, while closely monitoring developmental metrics, lipid content and survival. Macronutrient analyses on both pollen types revealed dandelion pollen contained lower levels of protein, essential amino acids and several fatty acids, which ...

Early adversity and the comorbidity between metabolic disease and psychopathology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Hierarchical diagram representing the interplay between the genetic background and early life adversities and its effect on multiple physiological processes that ultimately impact on the risk for the comorbdity between psychopathology and cardiometabolic disorders.

Soil physical properties affect nematode counts in the Barnes soil series

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Nematodes are important in soil food webs and are being considered in soil health frameworks. We evaluated nematode counts as a potentially rapid measure of land use effects on soil biology in a benchmark Mollisol. We assessed pedons (0–120 cm) from conventional, no‐till, and grassland fields in eastern North Dakota in October 2022.

Bacterial Communities Associated With Crustose Coralline Algae Are Host‐Specific

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
Fifteen Indo‐Pacific crustose coralline algae (CCA) species surface microbial communities were characterised with 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and are distinct. The CCA surface microbiome primarily differentiate by algal host species, but core bacterial communities additionally correlated to host phylogeny.

Modulation of succinyl‐CoA:3‐ketoacid CoA transferase activity by a single amino acid residue in acetate:succinate CoA transferase from Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Trypanosomatids are protozoan parasites that remain a global health challenge due to the limited efficacy, safety, and durability of current treatments. Acetate: succinate CoA transferase (ASCT), together with succinyl‐CoA synthase (SCS), forms the ASCT/SCS cycle that fuels ATP production and generates acetate, a central metabolic intermediate

Dyslexia Research and Replicability: Should We Be Worried?

open access: yesMind, Brain, and Education, Volume 20, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Replicability has become a heated issue in empirical science. In interdisciplinary fields, such as dyslexia research, replications are deemed challenging due to the linguistic, cognitive, and contextual complexity of literacy. We discuss whether dyslexia research faces a replicability crisis and the implications of replicability issues for ...
