Fruit Juice Processing Technologies and Their Impact on the Content of Bioactive Compounds—A Review of Current Approaches

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Fruit juices contain a variety of bioactive compounds (mainly polyphenols, anthocyanins, carotenoids, and vitamin C) with antioxidant properties. Traditional thermal processing methods may negatively affect the stability of these compounds, leading to reductions in polyphenol and anthocyanin content, decreased vitamin C levels, and antioxidant activity.

Strong genetic differentiation but limited niche partitioning in a sympatric species pair separated by an allochronic reproductive barrier

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
Sympatric sister species demonstrate substantial geographic and host overlap, with ecological analyses only finding subtle microecological variation in habitat use. Molecular analyses reveal clear genetic differentiation with no evidence of hybridization, suggesting strong reproductive isolation between species. Differences in time‐of‐day mating appear

Trade‐Offs in the Moonlight: Influence of Interspecific Pressures, Temperature, and Moon Phases on the Activity Patterns of Asiatic Brush‐Tailed Porcupine

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Using camera trap data from a tropical rainforest, we show that the Asiatic brush‐tailed porcupine uses behavioral trade‐offs: avoiding full moons, preferring 15°C–22°C, and shifting activity to reduce conflict with predators/competitors. This plasticity reveals how it balances foraging efficiency and survival risks, offering insights into conserving ...
