Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1989-2004, November 2026.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Migration and the Geography of Life Expectancy: Selective Sorting and Spatial Dependence Across 172 Countries

open access: yesPopulation, Space and Place, Volume 32, Issue 8, November 2026.
ABSTRACT International migration has grown rapidly in recent decades, yet its relationship with population health is difficult to disentangle from the economic, structural and geographic characteristics of the places migrants move to. This study examines whether international migration is associated with population‐level life expectancy after ...

Social Sustainability in Circular Bioeconomy Business Models: Insights From Argentina

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 7, Page 10313-10337, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Research on circular bioeconomy business models (CBEBM) has largely prioritised environmental and economic aspects, leaving out the social pillar. To address this gap, this paper analyses to what extent and in what ways social sustainability is integrated into CBEBM, based on 12 cases from northern Argentina, a region with high potential for ...

The Making of the Right to Food: Tracing Food Policy Conflict and Negotiated Outcomes in Colombia

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The 2016 Peace Agreement between the Colombian Government and the FARC guerrilla group marked a historic step toward ending more than five decades of armed conflict. It also reshaped national food policy with lasting implications. During the negotiations, deep ideological divisions emerged between food sovereignty and food security, and these ...

Performance of Earth System Models in Representing Vegetation Functional Response to Heat and Water Stresses

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract This study evaluates the performance of four CMIP6 Earth system models (ESMs) in capturing the apparent optimal temperature (Topt) and the response of light use efficiency (LUE) to heat and drought across forests and grasslands. ESMs effectively reproduce Topt for C4 plants, but show large discrepancies for C3 plants, with NorESM2‐MM slightly ...

A Museum‐Curated, Voucher‐Backed 12S Barcode Reference Library for Fishes of the Ecuadorian Amazon

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 8, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an emerging method that promises to expedite and improve biodiversity surveys by identifying species from the genetic material they shed into the environment. eDNA methods offer many advantages over conventional specimen‐based surveys, but their effectiveness hinges on reference libraries, which for ...

Integrating Bioacoustics and Community Science for Advancing Bat Research: Insights From Urban–Rural Landscapes Across Regions in Peru

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
Pioneering community science bat research in the Neotropics combines community participation with passive acoustic monitoring across urban–rural landscapes in Peru. The study shows how urbanization and environmental conditions shape bat richness and activity, while community‐generated data recover ecological patterns broadly consistent with expert‐led ...

Present and Future Distribution of Apochloa molinioides and Trichanthecium wettsteinii in the Brazilian Campos Rupestres: Ecological Modeling for Climate‐Smart Conservation

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐elevation ecosystems are among the most sensitive to climate change, responding more rapidly than low‐elevation environments. However, few studies have shown the effects of climate change on grass species in these environments. Among them, Apochloa molinioides and Trichanthecium wettsteinii (Poaceae) are notable for occurring in high ...

Integrating Diverse Approaches, Actors, and Local Knowledge: Lessons From the 61st ATBC Meeting

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
With roots dating back to 1963, the Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation (ATBC) has broadened its biological focus to embrace the multidimensional nature of conservation. The 61st ATBC Meeting in Oaxaca, México (2025) emphasized integrating ecological, social, and cultural dimensions through diverse approaches, actors, and knowledge ...

Flower Visitation, Floral Traits, and Reproduction of Nicotiana glauca (Solanaceae) in an Urban Landscape

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
Across a heterogeneous urban landscape in the high tropical Andes, Nicotiana glauca showed strong spatial and temporal variation in floral traits and visitor assemblages, with hummingbirds acting as the only legitimate visitors and bees as nectar robbers.
