Genomic forecasting for climate‐resilient fruit trees

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1640-1653, August 2026.
Genomic offset and required evolutionary changes under climatic shifts. Summary Fruit trees – long‐lived perennial crops cultivated for their edible fruits or nuts and frequently propagated clonally – are increasingly exposed to climate extremes that threaten their productivity and survival.

Forest Herb‐Layer Species Richness in the Western Balkan Diversity Hotspot

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Forest herb‐layer richness in Montenegro ranges from 7 to 149 species per 100 m2. Thermophilous oak forests on base‐rich soil often harbour more than 90 vascular plant species per 100 m2. Mean annual temperature, summer precipitation, terrain ruggedness, soil pH and tree‐layer cover are the main factors shaping herb‐layer species richness patterns ...

Conservation Hotspots of Quercus castaneifolia Revealed Through the Integration of Genetic Diversity and Landscape Connectivity

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study integrates the genetic characterization of chestnut‐leaved oak across its distribution range in the Hyrcanian forests with landscape connectivity modeling to identify regions of high evolutionary and ecological importance. Two main core areas, located in the western and eastern parts of the Hyrcanian forests, were identified and connected by

Effects of Pyrolysis Control Parameters on the Structural Properties of Biomass‐Derived Activated Carbon Materials and Their Energy Applications

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
Tubular pyrolysis synthesis is a widespread method to produce activated carbons (ACs). This review focuses on the different controlling parameters of the tubular pyrolysis synthesis method and their influence on the performance of synthesized ACs, thereby considering both experimental aspects and the use of plant‐based biomasses (PBBs) as feedstock ...
