In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle [PDF]
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Elephant barrier behaviors in response to conflict mitigation fences [PDF]
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Human–wildlife conflict is a major conservation issue, particularly in lower income countries, where it affects marginalized people and leads to the extirpation of threatened species. Managers increasingly use fences to reduce this conflict but lack evidence on the effectiveness of these barriers, especially on whether this reduces the number ...

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species [PDF]
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 435-447., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
