In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Beavers on Ice: Factors Influencing Emergence Phenology in Boreal Canada
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.Climate‐driven changes in ice phenology influence the timing of spring emergence of a non‐hibernating ice‐bound mammal, the North American beaver. ABSTRACT The influence of climate change on emergence phenology of hibernating mammals in northern latitudes is receiving increased attention, yet for freshwater semi‐aquatic mammals such as beavers, which ...

PEP725: 15 years of driving European and global phenology science
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 717-734, April 2026.Summary Phenology – the timing of seasonal biological events – is a sensitive indicator of climate change and ecosystem dynamics. Long‐term, broad‐scale phenological data are crucial for understanding and predicting plant responses to environmental change.
