Niche shifts after long-distance dispersal events in bipolar sedges (Carex, Cyperaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Bipolar species represent the greatest biogeographical disjunction on Earth, raising many questions about the colonization and adaptive processes behind such striking distribution.

Temperature and the evolution of flower color: A review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Flower colors brighten our natural world. How and why have they evolved? How might ongoing global warming alter their evolutionary trajectories? In this review, I examine the influence of ambient temperature on the evolution of flower color.

A mosaic of colors: The influence of biotic and abiotic factors shaping flower color diversity across a tropical mountain ecosystem

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Premise Flower color diversity within communities is shaped by biotic and abiotic factors. Pollinators often prefer specific colors, and floral pigments also help protect against abiotic factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, precipitation, and temperature.

A Bioinspired Approach to Mechanically Reinforce Collagen‐Rich Tissues Using Modularly Defined Stilbenoids

open access: yesBiopolymers, Volume 117, Issue 1, January 2026.
A schematic diagram of dentin biomodification using modularly defined stilbenoids (MoDS). Stilbenoids interact with type I collagen at multiple hierarchical levels, inducing intermolecular and inter‐microfibrillar cross‐linking that enhances dentin viscoelastic properties, structural stability, and biocompatibility.

Germination Biology of Three Cyperaceae Weeds and Their Response to Pre- and Post-Emergence Herbicides in Paddy Fields

open access: yesAgronomy
(1) Background: Cyperaceae weeds have become a major type of weed in local paddy fields in China. (2) Methods: We assessed the impact of environmental factors, including temperature, light, salinity, water stress and soil depth, on the germination and ...

Mowing Modulates the Biotic Filter of Expansive Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Management type and expansive species influence plant community diversity in complex ways. Overall increase of expansive species cover acts as biotic filter in reducing the alpha and beta taxonomic and phylogenetical diversity. However, the filtering effect is modulated by management type, being more intense under mown grasslands.

Phylogeographic and Ecological Insights Into the Evolutionary History of the Grass‐ and Sedge‐Specializing Deltocephalinae Leafhoppers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Phylogenetic reconstructions and morphological analysis robustly support the monophyletic status of tribes specializing in grass and sedge habitats. Grass‐ and sedge‐specializing groups diverged from nonspecializing groups around 95.85 million years ago (Ma) during the Cretaceous period, preceding the origin of grasses and sedges (76–88 Ma), indicating

An Analysis of Vegetation and Microbiome Recovery in Abandoned Agricultural Fields

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study investigated the natural recovery of biodiversity in formerly cultivated fields in the Eastern Cape, South Africa, by comparing plant and bacterial communities across different successional ages. We found that diversity levels in old fields began to resemble natural conditions for both community types, indicating a positive recovery ...
