Arthropod niche differentiation linked to grazing‐induced sward islets in intensively managed agricultural pasture

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 598-620, May 2026.
In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling

Year‐round pollinator visitation of ornamental plants in Mediterranean urban parks

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 702-715, May 2026.
Pollinators visiting ornamental plants in urban parks remained diverse throughout the year. They were represented by wild bees (42%), honeybees (37%), flies (18%), butterflies (2%) and beetles (1%). Both native and non‐native plants attracted pollinators.

AlkaPlorer: A database‐driven explorer for natural alkaloids and derivatives

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1384-1398, May 2026.
The alkaloid database AlkaPlorer integrates over 130,000 compounds across 12,250 species. By linking chemical structures with biological and evolutionary data, it reveals how these molecules evolve and function. This platform serves as a vital resource for AI‐driven discovery in plant metabolism and modern drug development. ABSTRACT Alkaloids, renowned

Population Genomic Analyses Reveal Geographic Structure in Rhizoctonia solani AG1‐IA Isolates Associated With Agronomic Crops

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Soilborne fungal pathogens threaten food security, but limited knowledge of their population biology, including genetic variability and population structure, hinders the development of effective strategies to prevent crop losses. Rhizoctonia solani AG‐1 is a significant soilborne pathogen worldwide, divided into subgroups based on host range ...

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1522-1534, May 2026.
Summary Invasive plants often outcompete co‐occurring native species by expressing acquisitive functional traits that promote high photosynthetic capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these traits are newly evolved in the introduced (‘away’) range or if invaders arrived preadapted with superior traits from their native (‘home’) range.

An atlas of plant selenium metabolism

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2041-2060, May 2026.
Summary Selenium (Se) is not only a rare and toxic element but also an essential micronutrient for humans and animals that is often in short supply. Terrestrial plants do not require Se, but it can have growth‐promoting or negative effects, depending on the exposure level.
