Influence of Seasonality on Habitat use and Spatial Distribution Patterns of Tree‐Dwelling Scorpion (Physoctonus debilis) in Brazilian Caatinga

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Habitat selection plays a crucial role in the survival of various animals, primarily due to their ability to identify suitable sites for development. In Caatinga regions, climate seasonality has a strong effect on vegetation, consequently influencing the occurrence and spatial distribution of diverse plant‐associated organisms.

Environmental and Chemical Factors Determining the Structure of Leaf Litter Sporulating Conidial Fungi Communities in Two Preserved Areas of Brazilian Atlantic Forest

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Brazilian Northeast shelters fragments of the Atlantic Forest that, although historically under‐sampled, are home to a high diversity of organisms. In this context, conidial fungi are crucial for ecological balance, standing out for their role in the decomposition of organic matter and nutrient cycling.

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1419-1433, September 2026.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

Large‐scale nuclear and plastid phylogenomic analyses inform an updated Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification: APG V

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 845-874, September 2026.
This revision of the APG classification considers the extensive recent analyses of hundreds of nuclear and plastid genes for many angiosperm species. Although previous versions of the APG classification were largely based on uniparentally inherited markers (plastid DNA, largely maternally inherited), there has emerged since APG IV extensive evidence of

Effect of gamma irradiation and storage days on physicochemical, sensory, and microbial quality of pineapple (Ananas comosus) fresh cut under refrigeration

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 8, Page 292-300, August 2026.
Abstract Background Fresh‐cut pineapple is increasingly consumed for its convenience and nutritional value; however, minimal processing accelerates quality deterioration and microbial growth, resulting in substantial postharvest losses. Gamma irradiation is recognized as a nonthermal preservation technique, but limited information exists regarding its ...

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
