Phylogenetics of Clusia sect. Criuva (Clusiaceae) unveils a new species, reinstates an old name and clarifies sectional circumscription

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Clusia sect. Criuva has long been a taxonomic catch‐all, particularly in the final decades of the 20th century, when misapplications conflated eastern Brazilian taxa with species from the Guiana Shield. We combine herbarium‐based genome skimming, targeted fieldwork, and critical examination of historical literature and types to reassess ...

Revisiting the nomenclature of Carludovica microcephala, type species of Dicranopygium (Cyclanthaceae)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The name Carludovica microcephala, basionym of the type species of Dicranopygium (Cyclanthaceae), has long been attributed to J.D. Hooker (1892), based on plants cultivated at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. A reassessment of nineteenth‐century horticultural literature shows that the name had already been validly published 35 years earlier, in

Identifying climatic refugia: Wet and complex habitats act as buffer for birds during severe droughts

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Wet habitats and complex vegetation, therefore, are critical for providing stable microsites and water resources, underscoring the need to preserve and enhance the resilience of these habitats to support biodiversity during extreme events. Our study provides valuable insights for conservation strategies that should focus on identifying refugia ...

Reorganization without disruption: How fire‐driven spatiotemporal changes in floral resource landscapes influence plant–bee interaction networks

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Contrary to fire suppression policies that promote ecological homogenization, we suggest that patchy prescribed fires could be used to enhance spatiotemporal diversity in the Cerrado by promoting fine‐scale heterogeneity in floral resources and resource‐mediated plant–bee interactions.

Spiders in the mosaic: How habitat heterogeneity and structure drive local spider diversity in a Mediterranean forest

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 810-826, August 2026.
We assessed alpha‐ and beta‐diversity patterns of spiders across different forests and across vegetation layers (ground, shrub, low canopy) at local spatial scales across various Mediterranean forest types. Across forests, alpha‐diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, which also drove beta‐diversity patterns across plots .

Beneath the Bark: Molecular Determinants of Adaptation and Infection in Bacterial Pathogens of Woody Hosts

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens colonise woody hosts by integrating metabolic adaptation, effector‐mediated immune suppression, cell wall remodelling and EPS‐ and toxin‐supported persistence. ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens of woody plants represent a pervasive yet underexplored threat to global agriculture and forestry, causing devastating diseases in fruit trees ...

A Modified Cas9 Scaffold Allows Extension of the Virus‐Induced Gene Editing Technology to the Large Potyvirus Genus

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4933-4947, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses are recognized as rapid and effective vectors to deliver CRISPR‐Cas reaction components into plants, a strategy termed virus‐induced gene editing (VIGE). However, VIGE is limited by the host range of the viral vectors. Development of new viral vectors to target a broad range of plant species will potentially enable the delivery ...

Lysine Biosynthesis Defines a Metabolic Checkpoint for Gibberellin‐Mediated Growth in Arabidopsis thaliana

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5343-5357, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Lysine represents a metabolic hub linking mitochondrial energy status with amino acid catabolism, yet its role in coordinating plant growth and development remains poorly characterised. The dapat mutant, which is deficient in L,L‐diaminopimelate aminotransferase (DAPAT), exhibits severe growth inhibition associated with broad metabolic ...
