Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...

Additive Variance and Open‐Pollinated Progenies Under Mixed Mating
Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Open‐pollinated progeny tests are still widely interpreted as if all the individuals within a maternal family were true half‐sibs. However, in species with mixed mating systems, this assumption is often biologically unrealistic and may bias the estimation of the additive variance, narrow‐sense heritability and expected selection gains.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drought‐induced tree mortality underscores the need for improved physiological models to predict tree responses to water stress. We employed a hysteresis modelling approach analyzing diel water absorption and desorption cycles to understand drought‐induced shifts in physiological thresholds.

When tradition burns: Misinterpreting prescribed fire across the science–society gap in Iberia
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.Prescribed fire is a scientifically grounded management tool whose benefits depend on specific ecological and operational conditions. This Perspective examines how these benefits may be reinterpreted beyond their original context and proposes a framework to improve the translation of ecological knowledge into environmental decision‐making.

Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 7, Page 3775-3795, July 2026.Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...
