The Crop Feeding Behavior of Rhesus Macaques in a Forest‐Farm Mosaic in Central Nepal: Implications for Human–Wildlife Coexistence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 3, March 2026.
Rhesus macaques in Nepal fed on crops for a longer duration and caused more crop damage when the foraging party was larger. Farmer interventions failed to reduce the duration of crop feeding and the amount of crop damage. ABSTRACT Human‐driven habitat change is forcing nonhuman primates to exploit anthropogenic landscapes, resulting in primate crop ...

The Culturable Mycobiome of Powdery Mildew‐Infected Plants

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Botanical gardens host diverse plant assemblages that provide valuable opportunities to study fungal biodiversity and plant–fungal interactions. Powdery mildews (Erysiphaceae) are common pathogens in these settings, yet little is known about how they co‐occur with culturable fungi present on infected leaves.

Are crop yields limited by pollinators? Proper assessments using pollinator gradients require measurements of flower density and yield potential

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 563-569, March 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract It is widely documented that many crops depend on animal—and primarily insect—pollination, but the degree to which pollinators limit yield in comparison with other factors is poorly understood.
