Assessment of carbon and nitrogen stocks in soil and soil organic matter fractions in an alley cropping system under a northern temperate climate

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Alley cropping, combining tree rows with wide alleys for agricultural crops, has demonstrated variable potential to store additional carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in soil, compared to conventional cropping. Studies quantifying C and N in particulate organic matter (POM) and mineral‐associated organic matter (MAOM) are scarce, despite their ...

Protection Management, Nurse Plants, and Diversity of Companion Species Influence Natural Regeneration of Pinus gerardiana in the Western Himalayan Pine Forests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Studies examining the factors influencing the population density of keystone plant species offer valuable insights for forest management and conservation efforts. Utilization level, nurse plants, and abiotic factors significantly affect the natural regeneration of juvenile trees.

The Effects of Biome Stability During the Quaternary on Plant Diversity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We used machine learning to reconstruct global biome changes over the last 2.6 million years, revealing that tropical forests, deserts, and temperate forests were relatively stable, whereas northern Europe and North America experienced frequent biome shifts due to ice sheet expansions.

Molecular Genetic Characterization of the Diet of Limestone and Rainforest Langurs

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Using DNA metabarcoding of 419 fecal samples collected over 1 year, we characterized and compared the diets of four Trachypithecus species from rainforest and limestone habitats in Vietnam. Langurs consumed a remarkably high diversity of plants (122–129 genera across 59–73 families), with clear interspecific differences in dietary composition and ...

Cytogenetic Analysis of Altitude‐Associated Chromosome Variations in Campeiostachys nutans From Western Sichuan Plateau Using Multicolor GISH and ND‐FISH Approaches

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
The genomic and chromosomal organization of C. nutans was investigated using GISH and ND‐FISH with four oligonucleotide probes. The results showed that repetitive sequence distribution exhibited genome‐specific patterns: the H genome demonstrated high structural stability with low polymorphism, while the St genome showed moderate variation, and the Y ...

Transition–Transversion Bias at the CYTB Gene Level in the Order Cypriniformes (Actinopterygii) as Evidence for the Influence of Metabolic Rate on Molecular Evolutionary Rate

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Families and subfamilies inhabiting temperate regions exhibit increasing transition frequencies and decreasing transversion frequencies with increasing genetic divergence, resulting in a pronounced transition–transversion bias. In contrast, tropical taxa show the opposite pattern, with elevated transversion frequencies and a markedly weaker bias.
