Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1735-1759, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Effect of Sugarcane Particle Size on Nutrient Intake, Digestibility, Ingestive Behavior, Growth Performance, Carcass Composition, and Meat Quality of Lambs

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 4, August 2026.
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sugarcane particle size (short and long) on nutrient intake, digestibility, ingestive behavior, growth performance, tissue composition of the leg, centesimal composition, and physicochemical parameters of the meat of feedlot lambs.

Gut microbiota composition and dietary interventions modulate abdominal fat deposition in poultry: Mechanisms and applications

Poultry Science
Excessive abdominal fat deposition (AFD) in poultry reduces meat yield and efficiency. The gut microbiota regulates AFD through shifts in microbial composition and the production of metabolites.

Rediscovery of Strobilanthes panichanga and discovery of Strobilanthes parryorum (Acanthaceae): two endangered species from the hills of Dima Hasao, Assam, India

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
We report on two species of Strobilanthes Blume. Strobilanthes panichanga (Nees) T.Anderson has been rediscovered in the Dima Hasao district of Assam, India, after a very long gap of 150 years, and Strobilanthes parryorum C.E.C.Fisch has been discovered for the first time in Assam, India.

Multimodal Deep Learning‐Assisted Microstructural Evaluation System for Sintered NdFeB Magnets

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The performance of sintered NdFeB magnets, especially coercivity, is critically determined by their complex microstructure. However, a quantitative microstructural evaluation system (MES) is much needed but has long been missing in the community.

The Sounds of the Australian Summer: A Continental‐Scale Inventory of Cicada Ecoacoustics

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Australia has a rich cicada fauna, with over 400 described species including some of the loudest‐calling species in the world. The males of each species produce a unique call for attracting females; these calls are invaluable for informing taxonomy and allowing for species‐level identification.

Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair in a Patient With Anderson-Fabry Disease

JACC: Case Reports
Severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) is one cardiac manifestation of the multiorgan metabolic enzyme disorder Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD). Although DMR is normally managed surgically, many patients with AFD are unsuitable for this.

Moderation or Amplification? Mapping Speech Distinctiveness Among Green Parties Using a Machine Learning Approach

Legislative Studies Quarterly, Volume 51, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT How do issue‐owning parties adapt their rhetoric when transitioning from opposition to government? Focusing on the Green parties in Germany and Ireland, we analyze legislative debates to trace how these parties seek to maintain ownership of environmental issues. Using more than 1.7 million parliamentary speeches from the German Bundestag (1991–

The AFD-expressed SRTX-1 GPCR does not contribute to AFD thermosensory functions.

microPublication biology
Temperature experience-regulated gene expression changes have been shown to underlie long-term adaptation of the response threshold of the AFD thermosensory neuron pair, and contribute to thermotaxis behavioral plasticity in C. elegans . We previously showed that the SRTX-1 GPCR is expressed primarily in AFD and is localized to their sensory endings ...
