Are lichens biocompasses? Revisiting an old prediction using new techniques

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
The equator‐facing portions of tree trunks receive direct sunlight and create restrictive microclimate conditions for lichens that orient preferentially towards the Earth's poles where trunks are shaded, indicating an optimal zone at the fine‐scale radial dimension.

Observations on Rhamnus alaternus Naturally Infected by Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex ST87 in the Mediterranean Maquis of Monte Argentario (Tuscany, Italy)

open access: yesPlant Pathology, EarlyView.
At Monte Argentario (Italy), the severity of symptoms on Rhamnus alaternus, a drought‐resistant species of the Mediterranean maquis, is attributable to the progression of Xylella fastidiosa ST87 infection only in part. ABSTRACT The diseases caused by the xylem‐inhabiting bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) are considered a consequence of the drastic ...

Traction suture fixation technique using a capsular tension ring fragment for severe lens displacement during cataract surgery in dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 197-206, March 2025.
Abstract Objectives To describe the traction suture fixation technique for severely displaced lenses (≥180°) using a capsular tension ring (CTR) fragment during cataract surgery in dogs, and to retrospectively investigate its clinical outcomes. Animals Studied Eight dogs (nine eyes). Procedures The medical records of dogs with severe lens displacement (

Insight Into the Diversity of Flower‐Visiting Hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) in Shrubland Maquis Around Ajaccio (South‐West Corsica, France)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 6, Page 855-865, July 2025.
ABSTRACT With around 6000 species and 200 genera worldwide, hoverflies (Syrphidae, Diptera) are important and a diverse group of pollinators, second to wild bees (Hymenoptera). Here, we studied the diversity of Syrphidae visiting flowers in low shrubland maquis environments of three compensation areas in the Ajaccio region (Corsica, France). A total of

Cones and consequences: the false dichotomy of conifers vs broad‐leaves has critical implications for research and modelling

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 1, Page 33-39, July 2025.
Summary In plant science research and modelling, particularly from the northern hemisphere, the terms ‘needle‐leaved’ and ‘conifer’ along with ‘broad‐leaved’ and ‘angiosperm’ are often used synonymously, creating the false dichotomy that conifers are needle‐leaved and angiosperms are broad‐leaved.

Wild Cicer species exhibit superior leaf photosynthetic phosphorus‐ and water‐use efficiencies compared with cultivated chickpea under low‐phosphorus conditions

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 1, Page 144-159, July 2025.
Summary Domesticated chickpea cultivars exhibit limited genetic diversity. This study evaluated the effects of chickpea domestication on phosphorus (P)‐use efficiency (PUE) under low‐P conditions, using a diverse Cicer collection, including wild species. Two wild Cicer species – 54 C. reticulatum accessions and 15 C. echinospermum accessions, and seven
