Frequency‐Dependent Seed Selection: How Relative Abundance and Seed Traits Jointly Mediate Foraging Preference in Scatter‐Hoarding Rodents

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study demonstrates that scatter‐hoarding rodents exhibit frequency‐dependent foraging preferences for both seed size and tannin content. Large and high‐tannin seeds were less likely to be removed when abundant, while small and medium‐tannin seeds experienced increased removal at higher frequencies.

Mutualism in disguise? Isotopic evidence for nutrient transfer from a carnivorous pitcher plant to its insect prey

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Consumer–resource interactions can shift from exploitative to mutualistic when reciprocal benefits such as nutrient exchange offset the costs of damage or mortality, though these benefits are often difficult to detect. Carnivorous pitcher plants are typically viewed as exploiters of arthropod prey, yet most visitors escape capture and may gain

Adaptive Hybrid Multi‐Objective Evolutionary Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Network Optimization: A Comprehensive Framework Integrating Opposition‐Based Learning and Levy Flight Strategies

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
The configuration of WSN design parameters presents a formidable multi‐objective optimization challenge characterized by five competing objectives that exhibit complex interdependencies. Figure 1 illustrates a typical WSN deployment topology showing sensor nodes, cluster heads, coverage areas, and various network conditions including out‐of‐range ...
