Water availability and land‐use shape the diversity of Odonata in the Middle East

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 621-633, May 2026.
Odonata diversity in the Middle East depends on the availability of long‐lasting waters, emphasizing the importance of preserving stable aquatic habitats for biodiversity conservation under climate change‐driven droughts. Agricultural expansion is associated with increased Odonata species richness, but overall trait diversity remains limited ...

Protistan Predators Outshine Fungi in Forest Soil Activity

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on fungal communities in forest soils, our understanding of the whole eukaryotic diversity and distribution remains limited. Moreover, traditional amplicon sequencing methods often introduce severe PCR and primer biases, further hindering accurate assessment of the microbial community composition in forest soils.

Clearing the Noise: Seasonal Dynamics of Endophytic Bacteria in Fagus sylvatica Leaves Revealed by Application of PNA Clamps

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The characterization of the seasonal dynamics of endophytic bacteria in beech leaves can be hindered by co‐amplification of chloroplast and mitochondrial plant DNA. This study applies established peptide nucleic acid (PNA) clamps to suppress host‐derived amplification while resolving bacterial succession across the vegetative season ...

Restoration tools and strategies for afforested Mediterranean coastal grasslands: is eucalypt removal alone enough to kickstart ecosystem recovery?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Afforestation with non‐native trees has profoundly altered coastal dune grasslands worldwide, creating persistent ecological legacies that constrain ecosystem recovery. Objectives We evaluated the cost‐effectiveness of two restoration approaches, distinguished by their respective demands for resource investment: Moderately ...
