Trends and Patterns for the Use of Herbal Medicinal Products for Gynaecological Ailments

Phytotherapy Research, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 3580-3594, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Most Germans consider herbal medicinal products (HMPs) to be an important supplement to conventional medicine. Despite existing clinical evidence for safety and efficacy, they are still not sufficiently integrated into drug therapy of gynaecological complaints in everyday practice.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1109-1122, June 2026.
As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...

Data from: Tracing back the origin of pumpkins (Cucurbita pepo ssp. pepo L.) in Mexico

, 2019
Cucurbita pepo is an economically important crop, which consists of cultivated C. pepo ssp. pepo, and two wild taxa (C. pepo ssp. fraterna and C. pepo ssp. ovifera). We aimed at understanding the domestication and the diversity of C. pepo in Mexico.

Application of a D‐Optimal Mixture Design for the Development and Optimization of a Pasta Enriched With Pumpkin Products

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fortification of wheat‐based products with high‐nutritional‐value ingredients is becoming of great interest as a strategy for producing high‐quality sustainable food products. Therefore, pumpkin products such as pulp (PPU), peel (PPE), and seed (PS) were blended into wheat pasta at different proportions and combinations using D‐optimal mixture

Ecological drivers and phylogenetic patterns of leaf minimum conductance variability in vascular plants

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3716-3731, June 2026.
Summary Stomatal closure prevents significant water losses during drought events. Yet, leaves are not perfectly hermetic and dehydration ensues through residual water losses, known as minimum conductance (gmin), which is highly relevant since it informs on the water depletion dynamics under stress.

Plants sensitivity on nickel under different conditions of iron or calcium concentration in the nutrient medium

Acta Agrobotanica, 2013
The sensitivity of six vegetable plants on nickel at early stages of their growth was investigated by index of tolerance. Besides the possibility of nickel fitostabilization by additional application of iron or calcium was tested.

Does water vole diet meet the prerequisites of the “plant hypothesis” for explaining population cycles?

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Rodent population cycles are observed in highly seasonal environments. As most rodents are herbivorous, the availability and the quality of their food resources vary greatly across seasons. Furthermore, it is well documented that herbivore densities have a measurable effect on vegetation and, conversely, that vegetation dynamics can influence ...
