Flowers for habitat enhancement primarily benefit common insect pollinators across temperate grasslands

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Flowers that are attractive and occupy a complementary position in interaction space could be prioritized in flower mixes to recover rare and specialized pollinators. By defining the ecological roles of readily available plants in plant–pollinator networks, particularly those that receive high visitation rates from complementary pollinator communities,

Urban rendezvous: Spatiotemporal overlap is more important than abundance and trait matching for urban plant–pollinator interactions

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our study shows that the generalized structure of urban plant–pollinator interactions is mirrored in the mechanisms that shape them, as interactions are governed primarily by less restrictive drivers such as abundance and spatiotemporal overlap rather than by trait matching.

Measurement of Ungulate Palatability and Browsing Pressure on Japanese Flora

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Estimation of palatability and browsing pressure are key techniques for ecosystem management. We compared four methods to estimate palatability based on browsing scar survey and proposed the reference palatability values for the Japanese flora as plant ecological trait.

Effects of elevation and microclimatic temperatures on butterfly–flower interaction networks in a Mediterranean mountain range

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 93-105, January 2026.
We tested how elevation and microclimate influenced butterfly–flower interaction networks at the hottest time of year in a Mediterranean mountain range. Interactions were dominated at all sites by one or two abundant butterfly and flower species, but butterfly networks were more robust to plant species loss at higher elevations. Nectar availability may

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Uganda

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the likelihood of pest freedom at entry in the EU, including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, potentially associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Uganda.

Chemical Composition, Antioxidant, and Antibacterial Activities of Mezilaurus duckei (Lauraceae)

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Mezilaurus duckei, a Brazilian endemic tree species found exclusively in the Amazon Rainforest, is primarily exploited for timber in construction. Due to its endangered status, this study aimed to investigate the chemical profile and biological properties of the ethanolic extract and its phases derived from M. duckei leaves. Chemical profiling
