Effects of selective harvest on antler size of white‐tailed deer in Texas, USA

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 222, Issue 1, June 2026.
We conducted 20 years of experiments on the selective harvest of white‐tailed deer by antler size, judged inferior, in 2 areas of South Texas, USA. Selective harvest increased the phenotypic antler size of older males in one study area but not the other. There was little evidence of evolution resulting from selective harvesting. Abstract There has been

From pollen provision to pollinator: Species‐specific sterol assimilation by wild bees in urban landscapes

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1906-1920, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

Comparative Analysis of Dietary Patterns in Children With Phenylketonuria Phenotypes and Controls: Implications for Nutritional Status

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU), caused by different variants of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene, need to restrict their intake of phenylalanine. This study evaluated dietary patterns and physical activity levels in children with different PKU phenotypes compared to healthy controls. Eighty‐two children were recruited (22 classic PKU

Practices, barriers, and opportunities for dietitians‐nutrionists in critical care in Latin America: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 582-592, May 2026.
Abstract Background Dietitians–nutritionists (DNs) play a key role in intensive care units (ICUs), yet their scope of practice varies across settings. This study aimed to describe the professional practices of DNs working in ICUs in Latin America and to identify factors associated with their level of professional activity.

Fish loss in tropical coastal ecosystems can jeopardise nutrient supply to traditional fishing communities: A case study from Northeast Brazil

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1248-1260, May 2026.
Abstract Fisheries constitute one of the major benefits that oceans provide for people. Yet anthropogenic pressures and global changes are disrupting coastal systems, eroding marine biodiversity and threatening the food security of traditional populations.

Temporal dynamics in functional fruit traits of native and invasive fleshy fruited plants in subtropical Andean forests

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1221-1232, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruits encompass the energetic and material flow between both interacting parties in frugivore‐mediated seed dispersal. Since fruit traits matter in frugivores' foraging decisions, the temporal dynamics of fruit traits might influence interaction outcomes.

Compost legacy effects in active roadside restoration: Medium‐term shifts in plant succession

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Roadside restoration experiment established on volcanic tephra following road construction in Andean Patagonia. A single application of municipal (MC) or biosolids (BC) compost rapidly increased plant cover compared with untreated controls (C) but led to distinct, exotic‐dominated plant communities over 6 years.
