Micro‐ and nanoplastics in gastrointestinal disorders: Mapping the translational gap between exposure, biomonitoring, and pathogenic mechanisms

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights critical “translational gaps” in understanding micro‐ and nanoplastics impacts on gastrointestinal diseases, bridging exposure, detecting, and mechanistic toxicology. Abstract Micro‐ and nanoplastics (MNPs) have become pervasive environmental contaminants with increasing evidence linking them to adverse health outcomes.

Adaptive Genomic Divergence Across Altitudes in Capsella bursa‐pastoris

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Genomic divergence was observed between high‐altitude and low‐altitude populations of Capsella bursa‐pastoris in China, consistent with an important role of ecological factors. Candidate adaptive loci associated with enhanced energy metabolism, photoprotection, and growth plasticity under altitudinal stress were identified.

Waders in a sea of debris: a global overview

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of plastic pollution on ecosystems and marine fauna is well documented, although research into its effects on waders (also known as shorebirds) remains limited. Given that waders are exposed to coastal marine litter, this exposure could be a significant factor in the decline of their populations. This study aims to assess the global

Trade‐offs in avian parental care: a review of theory and meta‐analysis of brood size manipulations

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The selective forces shaping parental care have been studied for over 50 years. While theoretical and experimental work has yielded qualitative progress, the large body of empirical work testing predictions about parental investment based on life‐history trade‐offs has yet to be synthesized.

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Independent Female Directors and Green Innovation in China: The Moderating Roles of Ownership Structure and Market Competition

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of independent female directors (IFDs) on green innovation (GI) among Chinese‐listed firms from 2008 to 2023. Additionally, we investigate the moderating effects of ownership structure and market competition on the relationship between IFD and GI.

Organising for Circularity: An Empirical Analysis of Project Organising and the Development of Circular Economy Firm Capabilities

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms pursue the circular economy (CE) by using projects as organisational forms. However, the transformative role of project organising (PO) in developing circular firm capabilities (FC) remains underexplored. In this study, we examine the effects of PO on the development of critical circular FC in CE‐based firms. We draw on primary data from
