Range‐wide sampling reveals cryptic lineages but largely conserved mycorrhizal associations in the Japanese fairy lantern Thismia kobensis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The jewel‐like flowers of Thismia are as rare as they are beautiful, often recorded from only a single site per species. Access to 15 populations of T. kobensis has enabled an uncommon, range‐wide assessment of morphology, genetics, and fungal partners. Our analyses showed that T.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Crust–mantle architecture of the Moon’s South Pole–Aitken basin from Chang’e-6 samples

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Chang’e-6 mission retrieved the first samples from the lunar farside South Pole–Aitken (SPA) basin. As the Moon’s largest and deepest impact basin, the SPA basin provides a unique window into the lunar interior, particularly its mantle.

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

Paired magnetic susceptibility and geochemistry of young volcanism in Iceland and Tengchong, China

open access: yesScientific Data
Two recent Quaternary volcanic provinces in Iceland and Tengchong, China were investigated with magnetic susceptibility and geochemistry. Despite their similar age, the two volcanic systems have different tectono–magmatic settings (influencing primary ...

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Numerical investigation of the mechanical behaviours of a pair of rock bridges at diverse scales in direct shear

open access: yesScientific Reports
Rock bridges have long been recognised to provide crucial resistance against rock mass failure. Multiple rock bridges with diverse scales are widespread in natural rock masses.

Biomolecular Interaction Prediction in the Pre‐ and Post‐AlphaFold Era: The 8th CAPRI Evaluation

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report on the 8th CAPRI Evaluation period, capturing the assessment of CAPRI Rounds 47 to 55 (excluding the CASP and COVID‐related Rounds), which have witnessed the transition to AI‐driven prediction tools such as AlphaFold and related alternatives. The prediction Rounds in this evaluation are characterized by a high level of difficulty due

Experimental characterization and grain-based numerical modeling of multiscale fracture mechanisms in pre-fractured granite

open access: yesScientific Reports
The mechanical behavior of pre-fractured granite is primarily governed by pre-existing fractures, in which macro-crack evolution emerges from micro-crack accumulation.
