Distribution and Seasonal Dynamics of Manganese and Associated Elements in Leaves of Manganese‐Hyperaccumulating Ilex Species

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
We investigated seasonal variations and tissue‐level distributions of Mn and associated elements in two Japanese Ilex species using time‐series leaf analyses and benchtop micro–X‐ray fluorescence imaging. Our results revealed strong temporal synchrony between Mn and Ca accumulation, species‐specific Mn–Zn relationships, and clear spatial partitioning ...

Screening the Chemical Composition, Antioxidant Activity, and Toxicity of Ten Species of Non‐Conventional Food Plants From Southern Brazil

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study found that the ten unconventional food plants from southern Brazil studied exhibited high antioxidant activity, a diversity of phenolic compounds, and no toxicity in vivo. These data demonstrate that these plants have promising benefits for human health and may be a potential protective agent against oxidative damage.

Seasonal variation in wild pig (Sus scrofa) diet revealed by DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
Using DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, we investigated the diet of wild pigs at an extensive bottomland hardwood forest ecosystem within Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Arkansas. We found that wild pig diet was highly diverse and included at least 74 plant families and 106 genera and 23 species of vertebrates.

Root Traits Predict the Soil Functional Responses of Subtropical Plant Species to Experimental Drought

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Plant species' habitat preference and drought tolerance traits were not the primary factors driving interspecific differences in soil functional responses to drought. Instead, fine root traits—particularly their chemical traits—played more critical roles in determining these variations.
