Taxonomic annotation errors incorrectly assign the family Pseudoalteromonadaceae to the order Vibrionales in Greengenes: implications for microbial community assessments

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Next-generation sequencing has provided powerful tools to conduct microbial ecology studies. Analysis of community composition relies on annotated databases of curated sequences to provide taxonomic assignments; however, these databases occasionally have

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.

The Chaetophorales (Chlorophyceae) – a taxonomic revision at family level

open access: yesEuropean journal of phycology, 2018
The Chaetophorales (Chlorophyceae) consist of filamentous green algae that were mostly described directly from natural samples by light microscopy. However, the descriptions were often based on morphological characters that are either homoplasious or ...

Be positive: customized reference databases and new, local barcodes balance false taxonomic assignments in metabarcoding studies

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
Background In metabarcoding analyses, the taxonomic assignment is crucial to place sequencing data in biological and ecological contexts. This fundamental step depends on a reference database, which should have a good taxonomic coverage to avoid ...

Host Status of Brazilian Native Tree Species to Root‐Knot Nematodes

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Root‐knot nematodes (RKN, Meloidogyne spp.) are among the most important plant pathogenic organisms, causing significant damage, with a wide geographical distribution and being difficult to control. The ability of these nematodes to parasitize native trees from Brazilian biomes is little understood.

Exploring taxonomic diversity and biogeography of the family Nemacheilinae (Cypriniformes)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Nemacheilidae, in the superfamily Cobitoidea, is comprised of many of morphologically similar fish species that occur in Eurasian water bodies. This large group shows inconsistencies between traditional morphological taxonomy and molecular phylogenetic ...

Phylogeny and Historical Ecology of Rhodocoma (Restionaceae) from the Cape Floristic Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A macroevolutionary analysis of macroecological relationships in Rhodocoma revealed a complex history of rapid ecological divergence, as well as genetic isolation via shifts in flowering times.

Measurement of Ungulate Palatability and Browsing Pressure on Japanese Flora

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Estimation of palatability and browsing pressure are key techniques for ecosystem management. We compared four methods to estimate palatability based on browsing scar survey and proposed the reference palatability values for the Japanese flora as plant ecological trait.
