Plant–plant nitrogen transfer is prevalent in a semi‐arid shrubland and affects the foliar N content of recipient plants

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 374-389, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In agroecosystems, it is well known that nitrogen (N) can be transferred below‐ground among plants, especially between legumes and forage crops. However, we still lack a deep mechanistic understanding of this ecological process and its implications in plant communities,

Local species‐specific effect of trees and shrubs on the incidence of the millet head miner, Heliocheilus albipunctella (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 38-48, February 2026.
Abstract Understanding the interactions between crop pests, natural enemies and semi‐natural habitats in agricultural landscapes is crucial for developing ecology‐based pest management in agroecosystems. In the present study, we investigated the local‐scale species‐specific effect of tree and shrub cover and diversity on the incidence and natural pest ...

Harnessing community science and open research‐based data to track distributions of invasive species in Japan

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Information gaps about invasive alien species (IAS) distributions hinder local governments in Japan, where many prefectures still lack official lists. This study shows that open research‐based data (ORD, GBIF.org) from museums and herbaria and community science data (CSD, Biome and iNaturalist) from volunteers can substantially reduce these gaps.

Modulation of SAL retrograde signalling promotes yield and water productivity responses in dynamic field environments

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1219-1233, February 2026.
Summary Chloroplast‐to‐nucleus retrograde signalling enables rapid stress responses in plants, but whether these signals accumulate to affect crop performance across entire growing seasons under field conditions remains unknown. We generated wheat mutants with targeted deletions in specific SAL gene copies from two distinct homeologous groups (TaSAL1 ...

Isopod feces–mediated shifts in germination timing enhance seedling establishment

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1909-1919, February 2026.
Summary Seedlings are particularly vulnerable to herbivory because their defenses are underdeveloped and their capacity to tolerate damage is limited. However, how seedlings cope with such threats remains poorly understood. Animal feces may provide important chemical cues that influence plant responses to herbivory.
