Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Numerous specimens stored in natural history collections have been involuntarily preserved together with their associated microbiomes. We propose exploiting century‐old soils occasionally found on the roots of herbarium plants to assess the diversity of ancient soil microbial communities originally associated with these plants.

Plants, Pollinators and Pheromones: Promises and Lies of Semiochemicals
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pollination is traditionally regarded as a quintessential mutualism, yet many plants employ deceptive strategies to achieve reproductive success. Among the most intriguing is sexual deception, wherein flowers mimic the sex pheromones and visual signals of female insects to attract male pollinators—without providing any reward.

“Touch&Play” Wood Typification by the MasSpec Pen
Journal of Mass Spectrometry, Volume 60, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT We have investigated the ability of a MasSpec Pen (MSPen) “three‐in‐one” (extraction, transfer, and ionization) device coupled to a mass spectrometer to provide instantaneous chemical profiles that could promptly characterize wood samples from the mahogany (Meliaceae) family.

River Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 1044-1057, June 2025.ABSTRACT Headwater streams are abundant in mountain landscapes and where municipal watersheds occur on public lands; they co‐occur with road networks open to off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use. Despite well‐known, deleterious interactions of roads and streams, few studies have empirically examined the biophysical impacts of OHV use where backcountry roads ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Copepods are the key secondary producers in marine ecosystems, yet their in situ diet and symbionts remain underexplored due to technical challenges, limiting our understanding of their population dynamics and ecological functions. Using DNA metabarcoding, we jointly characterised the natural diet and symbionts of copepods across Chinese ...
