MRI T2 Relaxation Time of the Intervertebral Disc: Repeatability, the Effect of Time of Day, and Unloaded Rest

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
T2 relaxation time is a commonly used MRI measure of intervertebral disc degeneration. This study investigated the repeatability, as well as the effects of time of day and rest on T2 relaxation time. T2 time repeatability was primarily driven by acquisition factors while time of day and rest changes did not exceed within subject variability. Thus, this

Hotspots on cold mountains: Hot flowers as pollinator refuges in mountain ecosystems

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1850-1861, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mountain environments constrain the activity of ectothermic insects. Yet, fine‐scale thermal refuges can buffer these thermal constraints, helping insects remain active in cold conditions.

Exotic Plant Pathogen Reduces Habitat and Foraging Activities of a Digging Mammal

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
The invasive plant pathogen Phytophthora cinnamomi causes extensive damage to Australian ecosystems and likely degrades the habitats of many animals. This study investigated the impact of P. cinnamomi invasion on habitat and foraging of a bandicoot species.

eRNA Reveals Real‐Time Signals of Freshwater Fish Population Biomass and Total Abundance

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biomass and abundance data are critical for ecosystem monitoring and management of fish populations, yet their acquisition represents a growing challenge as anthropogenic pressures intensify the need for monitoring. Environmental DNA (eDNA) has the potential to provide cost‐effective biomass and abundance estimations, but its high molecular ...

O‐Arm Navigation Enhances Facet Preservation Without Compromising Clinical Outcomes in UBE Decompression for Radiographically Stable Adult Degenerative Scoliosis: A Single‐Center Comparative Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1203-1215, June 2026.
O‐arm navigation–assisted unilateral biportal endoscopic decompression achieves precise and sufficient neural decompression in stable adult degenerative scoliosis, enhancing facet preservation and reducing segmental motion changes while maintaining comparable symptomatic improvement to conventional fluoroscopy, demonstrating the value of navigation in ...

Infrared Thermal Imaging Enhanced Selection Intensity for Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Soft Winter Wheat

Plant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 3, Page 441-453, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Development of Fusarium head blight (FHB)‐resistant winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) varieties relies heavily on visual scoring for large‐scale field evaluations. However, visual assessment of FHB symptoms remains a bottleneck in FHB resistance breeding due to its inherent subjectivity. At a single‐spike scale under greenhouse conditions, a
