Is urbanisation a barrier to genetic diversity in the solitary specialist bee, Melissodes druriellus?

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Bees are integral pollinators commonly found in and supported by urban green spaces; however, their eco‐evolutionary response to urbanisation varies interspecifically. While several studies have explored the population and landscape genetics of bees in response to urbanisation, few have examined solitary or specialist species which may be more ...

Integrated Analysis of Grapevine Responses to Winter Pruning Reveals Temperature‐Associated, Polyphenol‐Rich Xylem Occlusions

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perennial crops are continually wounded throughout cultivation. To limit pathogen infection and tissue dehydration, plants have evolved a range of wound responses that protect damaged tissues. These responses include changes in gene expression and the synthesis of protective compounds such as polyphenols.

The role of seed mix characteristics and soil amendments during post‐agricultural prairie restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Prairie restoration on degraded lands may be influenced by seed mix characteristics, including species richness and legume establishment. Soil amendments may facilitate restoration; however, the practical usefulness of techniques such as applications of whole soil and leaf mulch remains relatively unclear.

Network Indices and Diversity Follow Distinct Patterns for Bee–Plant Networks Along a Neotropical Elevational Gradient

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
Ecological studies of how interactions, communities, and species change along elevational gradients are still missing from some key organisms and ecosystems. We quantify bee–plant interactions and bee diversity patterns along a low elevation Neotropical mountain.

First record of parasitoidism in Danaus erippus (Cramer, 1775) pupae (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae): A possible mediation by an exotic plant species

open access: yesEntomological Communications
Monarch butterflies have a close relationship with plants of the Apocynaceae family, especially with the genus Asclepias Linnaeus, 1753, using their toxic cardenolides as a defense against predators. Calotropis procera (Aiton) W.T.

Hydrological Controls of Methane Uptake in Biochar‐Amended Native Vegetation Green Roof Substrates

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2026.
Four years of field measurements showed that biochar amendment consistently enhanced atmospheric methane (CH4) uptake in high‐organic native green roof substrates. Biochar‐mediated changes in substrate moisture and gas exchange strengthened CH4 consumption, demonstrating biochar‐amended green roofs as a nature‐based strategy for enhancing urban CH4 ...

Strategic mowing of roadside milkweeds increases monarch butterfly oviposition

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2019
The eastern North American migratory population of monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) has declined precipitously due, in part, to the widespread decline of its obligate host plant, milkweed (Asclepias spp.). Linear right-of-ways (e.g.

Mapping monarch habitat: Insights from a two‐year study on California Bureau of Land Management lands

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) oversees over 6 million hectares of public land in California, representing 15% of the state's total land area. California plays a key role in western monarch conservation, providing roosting habitat during winter months and breeding and migration habitat in the spring, summer, and fall.
