Coexisting ant species differ in ability to meet their intrinsic nutritional needs
Coexisting species are often assumed to reduce competition by foraging for foods that differ in nutrient composition, but few studies test whether field nutritional differences correspond to intrinsic differences in macronutrient selectivity. We compared field estimates of worker trophic position (tissue isotopes: δ15N) and worker tissue stoichiometry (

CSRcalculator: A reproducible framework for understanding plant ecological strategies
Understanding how plants respond to environmental change is essential for conserving biodiversity and managing ecosystems under climate change. We developed CSRcalculator, an open‐source platform that brings together major competitor, stress‐tolerator, ruderal (CSR) models to make ecological strategy classification accessible, reproducible and scalable.

It remains unclear how many plant species are not yet recorded by science. We illustrated the process by which species of the pineapple family in tropical America have been newly described to science to date, and we estimated how many species may still await scientific discovery in this group.

Supervised Protein Structure Classification Using Topological Persistence With DeltaFold
ABSTRACT Recent advances in protein structure prediction have considerably increased the number of available structures, underscoring the need for scalable and accurate methods to compare and classify this huge amount of data. Current approaches based on sequence alignment or structural superposition often lack sensitivity and/or are computationally ...

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...
