World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT Transnational collaboration is critical for water‐security innovation, yet actor configurations and thematic priorities remain poorly characterized. We surveyed 92 Australian and Brazilian researchers from the Tropical Water Research Alliance (TWRA), analyzing 11 sets of binary variables on collaboration modes, stakeholders, implementation ...

Defence traits vary across leaf ages in the thistles (Cardueae)
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1517-1531, May 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants produce a variety of structural and chemical defences to deter herbivores, which can covary across every scale of biological organization. Along these lines, it has been suggested that young leaves differ from old leaves in their defence strategies, but studies ...

Foraging plasticity and physiological adaptations enable hummingbirds to subsist on dilute nectars
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1475-1490, May 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Hummingbirds frequently feed on small volumes (<30 μL) of sucrose‐rich nectars. Climate change is expected to affect both the abundance and the concentrations of accumulated nectar.

On traits matching and the modular organization of food web and occurrence networks
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 837-850, May 2026.What mechanisms shape ecological networks? In Paraná River piscivores, species traits and abundance scaling promote modular structures. Our findings reveal how communities self‐organize and highlight the conditions needed to sustain them. Abstract Modularity and nestedness have been observed recurrently across different ecological networks, including ...

The Red Queen unveils the sexual and mating strategies of flowers
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.Although the conventional wisdom is that floral traits of plants evolved in concert with their mutualistic pollinators, here we showed that several key sexual and mating traits of plants, which modulate their outcrossing strategy, evolved in response to the pressure exerted by their antagonistic insect herbivores.
