Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Gut Microbiota of Gray Snub‐Nosed Monkeys: Adaptation to Seasonal Variations Through Energy Compensation and Thermogenesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Based on metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs), the gut microbiota of the gray snub‐nosed monkeys recovered 1229 non‐redundant MAGs. The gut microbiota showed an enhanced capacity to produce energy substrates with increased conversion activity of these substrates during winter.

Seasonal Difference of Gut Microbiota at a Stopover Site in Five Passerines of Different Migratory Behavior

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Seasonal variation significantly reshaped gut microbiota composition in migratory passerine species, whereas the resident species Suthora webbiana showed no clear seasonal shift. Species with similar migratory behaviors exhibited consistent seasonal patterns in their core gut microbiota.

Seasonal and Regional Dietary Heterogeneity Is Associated With Gut Microbiota Differentiation in Przewalski's Gazelle (Procapra przewalskii)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Seasonal and regional dietary variation in Przewalski's gazelle was linked to coordinated changes in gut microbiota, functional pathways, and fecal metabolites. Winter diets featured Poaceae, Cyperaceae, and Iridaceae, whereas summer diets shifted toward forb families.

Evolutionary framework and tribal circumscription of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto based on a comprehensive phylogenomic analysis

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolutionary history of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto (s.s.) has been shaped by multiple whole‐genome duplications and rapid radiations, producing an ecologically diverse lineage whose internal relationships have long remained unresolved.

Metabarcoding of Pollen Carried by Syrphids Reveals Novel Plant–Pollinator Interactions in a Protected Natural Area and Agricultural Sites

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.

Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) L’Hér. ex Vent., Microstegium vimineum (Trin.) A.Camus and Parthenium hysterophorus L. imported into the Netherlands via potted ornamentals or their coco peat substrate

EPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract While the presence of invasive plants as contaminants in potted plants is a well‐known phenomenon, its significance as a potential phytosanitary risk remains frequently underestimated. Coco peat, often used as a growing medium for potted plants, is also imported as a standalone commodity, creating an additional pathway for introduction.
