Benthic Marine Diatom Flora (Bacillariophyta) of Yap, Micronesia: Preliminary Annotated List, with Some New Mangrove Species

open access: yesDiversity
Yap diatoms—from freshwater streams through estuaries and mangroves to the marine coral reefs—had been sampled in 1988 and 2014 and a few species from the 1988 collections described in a 2009 report. The present paper documents 168 new records, including

Effects of Lactic Acid Bacteria on Fermentation Quality and Microbiome of Leymus chinensis Silage

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Ensiled Leymus chinensis are an important feedstuff for ruminants in large parts of the world. These results suggested that the addition of Lactobacillus plantarum or Lactobacillus buchneri regulated the ensiling performance by shaping the microbial community and metabolic pathways.

Adverse effects of grapevine trunk diseases on canes produced from infected rootstock mother blocks

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2973-2988, April 2026.
High incidences of GTD pathogens in rootstock mother vine heads, with Phaeomoniella chlamydospora and Diplodia seriata affecting cane physiology and quality. One‐year‐old canes harbor systemic inoculum, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and management.

IUCN Red List Regional Assessment of the Flora of Niue Utilising Indigenous Local Knowledge and Botanical Information

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
A regional assessment of the indigenous vascular plants of Niue is presented using the IUCN Red List criteria. The assessment was undertaken during a community workshop that drew on the indigenous local knowledge and scientific information. The assessment comprised 197 named taxa and 8 indeterminate entities, with 4 (2.0%) taxa assessed as Extinct and ...

Strain‐Specific Fermentation Performance of Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated From Maize and Napier Fodder During Maize Ensiling

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Isolation and identification of lactic acid bacteria from maize and Napier fodder and silage using physiological and biochemical tests, and Sanger sequencing. The isolated strains of Limosilactobacillus fermentum BLRI 1 and Bacillus subtilis BLRI 24 were utilised as an inoculant in maize silage.

Spatial Patterns and Overlap of Sedimentary and Rhizosphere Microbiomes of the Seagrass Zostera capensis

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Sedimentary microbiomes and, for the first time, rhizosphere microbiomes of Zostera capensis, South Africa's most abundant seagrass, were characterised using 16S rRNA metabarcoding across three estuaries. After accounting for seawater‐derived microbes, we found that sediment and rhizosphere communities largely overlapped but also harbor distinct core ...

Solving the trophic puzzle: Host–parasite associations in Neotropical fig wasps associated with fig trees of section Americanae

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 284-294, April 2026.
We determined the trophic associations among fig wasp species associated with Ficus citrifolia by integrating gall morphology, the temporal sequence of wasp colonization, and oviposition behaviour. Dissection of galls produced by four gall‐inducing species at a late developmental phase enabled direct identification of occupants and inference of host ...

Height and phytotelm size affect the invertebrate communities of epiphytic bromeliads in the Amazon rainforest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 221-234, April 2026.
The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...

Abiotic drivers of co‐occurrence and diversity patterns of Calopterygidae species in Amazonian protected freshwaters

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 235-249, April 2026.
Species co‐occurrences rely on their ability to explore similar or distinct available resources, and possible niche overlap can prevent their presence and establishment in a given site Damselflies of the Calopterygidae family demonstrated negative co‐occurrences in streams inside and outside PAs, highlighting that their ecological similarity is ...
