No need to seed: restoring species‐rich grassland on former arable fields by natural regeneration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over the last century, agricultural intensification has caused substantial losses of semi‐natural species‐rich grasslands. One means of restoring grassland habitat is to abandon farmed land, followed by mowing and/or grazing of the established vegetation to facilitate meadow diversification. Objectives This study investigated post‐

The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 2053-2076, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

Enriched Metabolic Phenotyping Refines Phenotypic Resolution of Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 8, Page 6674-6686, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Data‐driven clustering studies of type 2 diabetes (T2D) based on limited routine clinical variables have reproducibly described major metabolic subgroups, including severe insulin‐deficient diabetes (SIDD), severe insulin‐resistant diabetes (SIRD), mild obesity‐related diabetes and mild age‐related diabetes.

Using Eye Lens Stable Isotopes to Identify the Rearing Origin of Fall Age‐0 Walleye (Sander vitreus)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 775-783, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Isotope values in fish eye lenses may be useful in differentiating rearing origins. We compared eye lens isotopic values of fall fingerling age‐0 walleye (Sander vitreus) reared in a hatchery pond, a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS), and a natural lake. Using 10 fish per rearing source, we delaminated layers from one eye lens per fish to

Circular RNAs in Lotus japonicus Responses to Nutrient Supply and Mesorhizobium Symbiosis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 4823-4839, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Symbiotic interactions between legumes and rhizobia enable nitrogen fixation under low nutrient conditions. The establishment and function of symbiotic interactions require coordinated changes in gene expression in both the host and the microbe. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous gene‐specific molecules that can regulate transcription and

Auxin‐Dependent Activation of RHD6‐RSL4 Cascade Promotes Root Hair Growth Under Boron Deficiency in Arabidopsis Primary Root Apices

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 6081-6099, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants rapidly adjust their root system architecture to enhance resource uptake and cope with fluctuating soil environments. One such adaptive response is the development of root hairs (RH), which increase the effective root surface area and thereby improve water and nutrient acquisition.

Ecological niches and biogeography of nitrogen‐fixing plants in Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1349-1360, August 2026.
Despite sharing N fixation as a common trait, European legume and actinorhizal plant lineages occupy strikingly divergent ecological niches shaped by their evolutionary histories and physiological adaptations. Advanced symbiont control allows IRLC legumes to expand into northern, mesic regions, while non‐IRLC legumes are more common in Mediterranean ...

Assessing naturalness of coastal dune ecosystems through community (citizen) science: A protocol for Mediterranean beaches

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
A standardized citizen science protocol enabled trained secondary school students to collect reliable data on beach and coastal dune naturalness across Italy. The method provides a scalable and cost‐effective tool to support ecological assessment, identify vulnerable sites and inform coastal conservation and management.

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 39, 13 July 2026.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.
