A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.

Thaumatin‐Like Proteins in Molecular Allergy Diagnostics: Uncommon, Co‐Sensitized, and Clinically Inconspicuous? Insights From an Italian Cohort

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study assessed the prevalence, quantitative IgE levels, co‐sensitization patterns, and clinical significance of IgE reactivity to two TLPs—Act d 2 (kiwi) and Mal d 2 (apple)—in a large Italian allergic cohort. Thaumatin‐like protein (TLP) sensitization was uncommon (1.9%) and usually clinically silent when isolated.

Molecular IgE Reactivity Profiling With Micro‐Arrayed Allergens Reveals Distinct Interregional Patterns of Sensitization and a Hypoallergenic Region in Türkiye

Allergy, EarlyView.
A prospective, systematic and cross‐sectional population study was performed involving 1000 adult subjects from five centers representing different climatic areas of Türkiye (Turkey). Molecular IgE profiling demonstrated substantial interregional variation and identified a hypoallergenic region in the easternmost area with a continental climate.

Effectiveness and Predictors of House Dust Mite Subcutaneous Immunotherapy in Polysensitised Patients With Allergic Rhinitis: A Multicentre Retrospective Study

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Single‐allergen dust mite subcutaneous immunotherapy achieved 68.8% perennial symptom response rate in polysensitised allergic rhinitis patients. High mould and dust mite sIgE levels predicted poor allergen immunotherapy response, which indicated allergen‐specific sIgE levels may help guide personalised allergen immunotherapy decisions.

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Aging and longevity in decades‐old genebanked seeds from U.S. endangered plant species: Assessments using survival and RNA integrity assays

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Premise Seed longevity is critical for successful genebanking, but it is hard to detect or predict. We examined survival of genebanked seeds from species native to the United States to estimate longevity. We tested whether RNA integrity (RIN) can be used to detect aging and predict mortality. Methods Dry seeds from >100 species were stored for
