Ecological Effects of Solanum rostratum Invasion on the Diversity and Functional Traits of Native Plant Communities

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The invasion of Solanum rostratum exerts stage‐dependent effects on native plant communities. The study found that at low invasion levels, it temporarily enhances native plant diversity and community stability through resource complementarity; whereas at high invasion levels, it shifts to strong competitive inhibition, leading to a sharp decline in ...

The complete chloroplast genome of Cenchrus ciliaris (Poaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA Part B, 2018
Cenchrus ciliaris is an important pasture resource for arid region and owing to apomixis, it has been very important for development and distribution of cultivars and agro-types. In present study complete chloroplast genome of C. ciliaris was sequenced. The size of chloroplast genome is 138737 bp length with overall GC content 38.6%.

Drivers of Hirola Antelope Diet Selection in Natural and Managed Habitat in Eastern Kenya

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Hirola (Beatragus hunteri) populations in eastern Kenya consumed 17 forage species, favoring the grass Chloris virgata and the forbs Commelina benghalensis and C. diffusa. Nutrient analyses showed that natural habitats offered higher phosphorus, magnesium, and digestibility, whereas managed sites provided more sodium, potassium, and crude protein, with

Population‐specific germination and physiochemical responses of Aeluropus lagopoides seeds to salinity under controlled conditions

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our findings show significant population‐specific variations in the germination and physiochemical responses of Aeluropus lagopoides seeds to salinity stress. Seeds from both populations were nondormant, as they germinated maximally in water; however, those from the more saline and drier Hawke's Bay habitat exhibited enhanced salt tolerance, higher ...

Burrow Selection by Temminck's Ground Pangolins (Smutsia temminckii) in Northern Botswana

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT In arid and semi‐arid environments, many species use underground burrows for thermoregulation, reproduction, and to reduce predation risk. In Botswana, Temminck's ground pangolins (Smutsia temminckii) shelter in burrows during the day, and burrow density is thought to be a key indicator of habitat suitability for these animals.
