Characterization of the Omnivorous Lygus lineolaris Diet in a Strawberry Field by Metataxonomy

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study employs metataxonomy to reveal the extensive omnivorous diet of Lygus lineolaris in a strawberry field, identifying 475 host taxa and confirming active ingestion across plant and prey sources. We introduce a novel coefficient of omnivory, demonstrating the species' strong herbivorous bias while highlighting its dietary flexibility and ...

Bulbil formation in stress: Crucial role of triploid fitness in mixed ploidy dynamics in Costus speciosus

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Upon prolonged waterlogging, a Costus speciosus plant developed bulbils at stem node. Karyotype analysis, nucleolar staining, and anatomical study revealed its triploid status and developmental aspects. Prevalence of tetraploid, abundance, and unique reproductive fecundity of the triploid, indicates its determinant role in coexistence of the multiple ...
