Summer Rainfall Drives Adaptation with Gene Flow in a Widespread Butterfly

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how environmental variation interacts with gene flow to shape population genomic patterns is a central goal in evolutionary biology. We investigated how geographic and environmental differences impact genetic variation in the clouded sulfur butterfly (Colias philodice eriphyle) by conducting whole‐genome resequencing across ...

Multi‐Locus Nuclear Marker Assessment of Genetic Diversity in Swiss Orthoptera Unveils Conservation Status Limitations

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT With accelerating biodiversity loss, tracking both inter‐ and intraspecific diversity is critical, as within‐species variation underpins population viability and adaptive potential. We developed a new multi‐locus framework, and obtained an Orthoptera‐specific marker panel targeting 398 nuclear loci plus the mitogenome and ribosomal DNA to ...

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 221-245, June 2026.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Increased arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal biomass and diversity in soil under long‐term climate drying and warming

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3961-3975, June 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) support critical ecosystem services including plant resource acquisition and productivity. AMF functional traits such as relative biomass investment in root vs soil colonization or drought tolerance are thought to be evolutionarily conserved within AMF lineages and might influence AMF community responses to ...

Characteristics of Structure and Function of Alpine Meadow Ecosystem and Scientific Management

This work was carried out at Haibei Research station of Alpine Meadow Ecosystem. The structure of Alpine meadow ecosystem is simple. The net primary productivity above ground is about 1905 kg/ha/year, which is equivalent to 8.5616 x 106 kilocalories/ha ...

Soil microbiomes conditioned by long‐term warming affect plant belowground performance

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 1169-1177, June 2026.
Soil microbial communities conditioned by long‐term warming affect the plant performance of Anthoxantum odoratum and Agrostis capillaris by reducing belowground biomass. Abstract Global change affects plant performance, both directly through warming and indirectly through changes in their biotic and abiotic surroundings.

Machine Learning Reveals Hidden Bias in ERA5 Cloud Heights Over Earth's Third Pole

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Accurate cloud base height (CBH) over the Tibetan Plateau—Earth's Third Pole—is essential for monsoon dynamics, glacial melt, and water security, yet ERA5 systematically underestimates it. Here, we present a two‐step machine learning framework to mitigate this hidden bias.
