When Bigger Is not Better: Corolla Length Increases Nectar Robbing in Aloe secundiflora Engl. (Asphodelaceae)

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Nectar robbing is a widespread but unevenly documented component of plant–pollinator interactions, and quantitative assessments from African savanna systems remain limited. Based on a short field survey conducted over two consecutive days, this study quantified the frequency and reproductive consequences of nectar robbing in a population of ...

Pyrodiversity and Phylodiversity: Insights on Post‐Fire Forest Communities

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 10, October 2026.
Phylogenetic and taxonomic metrics can be useful ways to explore how the reintroduction of fire influences plant community assembly and diversity patterns. We leveraged a dataset of plant community samples collected before and after three fire events, pairing them with the first application of spatial phylogenetic methods at local spatiotemporal scales.

Chicken or egg? The evolutionary riddle of CMS and Rf in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 10, Page 3540-3542, October 2026.
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) reduces pollen fertility and nuclear Rf genes restore fertility. This Commentary explores support for the “arms race” and “pre‐adaptation” models for CMS–Rf co‐evolution. CMS and Rf interact dynamically, influencing plant reproduction, stress tolerance, and hybrid seed production, highlighting co‐evolutionary processes ...

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 1179-1194, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.

Dental Complexity and Crown Relief Document Occlusal Wear Along the Tooth Row in West Indian Manatees

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Sirenians are a lineage of herbivorous marine mammals morphologically specialized for exploiting aquatic vegetation in shallow‐water habitats. In manatees (Trichechus), continuous horizontal tooth replacement may represent a solution for mitigating heavy dental wear incurred by a diet of abrasive plant material.
