Adaptive Significance of Nickel Hyperaccumulation by Plants

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
Metal hyperaccumulation may enhance plant fitness through multiple, non‐exclusive mechanisms, including elemental defense against herbivores and pathogens, altered pollinator interactions, and increased reproductive performance in metal‐rich soils. Metals may also affect plant–plant interactions via elemental allelopathy and improve stress tolerance ...

Apothecial Ancestry, Evolution, and Re-Evolution in Thelebolales (Leotiomycetes, Fungi)

Biology, 2022
Closed cleistothecia-like ascomata have repeatedly evolved in non-related perithecioid and apothecioid lineages of lichenized and non-lichenized Ascomycota. The evolution of a closed, darkly pigmented ascoma that protects asci and ascospores is conceived

Tunneling Dung Beetle Effects on Soil Microbial Communities and Nutrient Cycling in Pasturelands: Implications for Soil Carbon Dynamics

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
The tunneling dung beetle, Onthophagus taurus (Schreber 1759) buries dung in the soil, affecting soil physical properties, the soil microbial community, as well as nutrient cycling. However, few studies have examined links between dung‐beetle mediated changes in soil microbes and soil organic carbon. We used a 60‐day enclosure experiment to examine how

The sls‐1 and sls‐2 Genes Confer Significant Resistance to Septoria Leaf Spot (Septoria lycopersici L.) in Organic Field‐Grown Tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum)

Plant Breeding, Volume 144, Issue 5, Page 705-714, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Septoria leaf spot (SLS) is a major foliar disease affecting tomato production, causing significant yield losses. This study evaluates the effect of two novel SLS resistance genes, sls‐1 and sls‐2, on SLS severity in open‐field tomatoes and their potential to be used in hybrid tomato varieties.

Fabaceous and Cucurbitaceous Hosts Are Infected With Distinct Populations of the Powdery Mildew Species Podosphaera xanthii

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 8, Page 2350-2358, October 2025.
Cross inoculations revealed clear differences in the host range of two Podosphaera xanthii populations infecting fabaceous and cucurbitaceous species. ABSTRACT Two species of powdery mildew, Podosphaera xanthii and Erysiphe vignae, cause disease in mungbean (Vigna radiata) in Australia. P.
