Ecological drivers and phylogenetic patterns of leaf minimum conductance variability in vascular plants

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3716-3731, June 2026.
Summary Stomatal closure prevents significant water losses during drought events. Yet, leaves are not perfectly hermetic and dehydration ensues through residual water losses, known as minimum conductance (gmin), which is highly relevant since it informs on the water depletion dynamics under stress.

Species biology and potential for controlling four exotic plants (Ammophila arenaria, Carpobrotus edulis, Cortaderia jubata and Gasoul crystallinum) on Vandenberg Air Force Base, California [PDF]

Invasive exotic plants can displace native flora and modify community and ecosystem structure and function. Ammophila arenaria, Corpobrotus edulis, Cortaderia jubata, and Gasoul crystallinum are invasive plants present on Vandenberg Air Force Base ...

Seagrass Sampling Methods in a Community‐Based Setting, A Comparative Analysis

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective monitoring of seagrass is essential for the conservation of this critical marine ecosystem. The choice of monitoring method depends on balancing accuracy, efficiency, cost and accessibility, especially in contexts requiring community engagement and ownership.

Assessing Ecological Connectivity for Loxodonta africana Across Transfrontier Conservation Areas in Southern Mozambique

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We present the first spatially explicit assessment of ecological connectivity for African bush elephant (Loxodonta africana) in southern Mozambique, spanning the Great Limpopo and Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Areas. By integrating Resource Selection Function with landscape connectivity analysis, we provide spatially explicit prioritization of ...

Characterization of the Wild Trees and Shrubs in the Fergana Valley: Diversity and Distribution, Threats

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The content of this paper is significant because it presents the first comprehensive assessment of the dendroflora of the Fergana Valley, contributes to understanding species richness across biogeographic regions, and places the results in the context of Central Asian flora and global biodiversity studies.

Genetic Divergence in the Absence of Strong Ecological Differences Between Coexisting White and Common Atlantic Marine Stickleback

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We examined whether the “white” threespine stickleback of Nova Scotia represents a nascent species distinct from sympatric common marine sticklebacks. Genomic analyses revealed that whites form a unique genetic cluster with low but widespread divergence across the genome despite evidence of gene flow, while morphometric and isotopic data indicated ...
