Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 6, November 2026.We compared multiple woody and herbaceous plants growing on Japanese serpentine soils to identify common morphological responses. Leaves were generally smaller or thinner, and stomatal traits changed differently between woody and herbaceous species, reflecting low water retention.

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 6, November 2026.After a natural summer flood in a South Korean riparian ecosystem, the invasive Coreopsis lanceolata was the only species to decline and then recover (mean cover 43% → 6% → 15%), the species with the highest allocation to both roots and leaves. This persistence‐oriented strategy may promote displacement of native vegetation under more frequent floods ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8437-8453, November 2026.ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2119-2133, October 2026.ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Hydrosols from Artemisia argyi and A. lavandulifolia collected across different regions and seasons in Shandong Province, China, were comparatively analyzed for chemical composition and antibacterial activity. GC–MS results showed that A. lavandulifolia hydrosol contained higher levels of terpinen‐4‐ol and α‐terpineol and exhibited a chemical ...

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.Several species within the tribe, Cestreae, are implicated in being hepatotoxic to livestock. Carboxyparquin and/or parquin are implicated as the toxic principles. Herbarium vouchers are useful resources to screen for the occurrence of these toxins in species of Cestrum, Sessea, and Vestia.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.Phytochemical and biological profiling of Launaea mucronata aerial parts reveals six bioactive constituents alongside potent antioxidant and antidiabetic properties. The hydroethanolic extract inhibits key carbohydrate‐metabolizing enzymes and exerts marked hypoglycemic and insulinotropic effects with histological restoration of metabolic organs in ...
