Refining generic limits in Hyacinthinae (Asparagaceae, Scilloideae): Conflict and concordance between morphology and phylogenomics

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Using Angiosperms353 and plastid genome skimming approaches, the generic limits of Hyacinthinae were explored using DNA sequences to better understand their evolution. Floral morphology, a traditional generic delimiter, conflicts with the molecular groupings in many cases, but bulb morphology and cytogenetics define similar groups to DNA.

Whose Nation Is It Anyway? Towards Methodological Cosmopolitanism in Studies of Nationalism and Nation‐Building in Kazakhstan

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scholarship on nationalism and nation‐building in Kazakhstan has been dominated by a social constructivist approach that privileges the civic–ethnic dichotomy. Even when critiques of this binary have emerged, they have often substituted proxy categories that reproduce the same dualism.

THE PROJECT “GREATER EURASIA” IN GEOSTRATEGY OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

ACTUAL PROBLEMS OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS, 2018
Geostrategy of state involves in particular the projects of its activities concerning certain regions of the world, countries and territories. Contemporary geostrategy of Russia in the world is based on the conceptual basis of the formation of a multipolar order. In 2016, Russia initiated the creation of the “great Eurasian economic space”.

The CaM1‐CBP60b‐MYB77 Transcriptional Cascade Regulates K+ Homeostasis and Salt Tolerance in Barley

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress that threatens global crop productivity. Calcium (Ca2+) is a pivotal second messenger in plant stress signalling, but how Ca2+ sensors such as calmodulin (CaM) transcriptionally control ion homeostasis and salt tolerance remains largely understood in crops.

Integrating herbicide application and seeding techniques to restore native plant diversity in crested wheatgrass‐dominated rangelands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoring native plant diversity in crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum)‐dominated rangelands is a persistent challenge in ecological restoration across western North America. Dense, long‐lived stands of this exotic grass suppress native seedling recruitment, hinder habitat restoration, and reduce ecosystem resilience ...

From Russia-Eurasia to Greater Eurasia: The Evolution of a Geopolitical Imaginary

This paper examines the evolution of Russian geopolitical imaginaries through a critical comparison between classical Eurasianism and the contemporary concept of “Greater Eurasia” [Бoльшaя Еврaзия]. While both paradigms share a common lexicon and spatial referent, they diverge fundamentally in their underlying assumptions and strategic orientations ...

“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

Foreign Direct Investment and Maritime Transportation Infrastructure: Competition Effects Under the Belt and Road Initiative

The World Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we analyse the determinants of maritime connections, with a special focus on the importance of foreign direct investments (FDI) in improving maritime transportation networks and in restructuring them. We are also interested in how China, in particular, impacts countries' integration to global supply chains through maritime ...

Retaining Models of Human Evolution After Repeated Falsifications—Why?

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
Two 19th century paradigms of human evolution emerged: Humans are subdivided into isolated populations in an evolutionary tree, versus human populations interbreed (gene flow) with no isolates. The tree model has been rejected whenever tested since the 1970's, whereas gene flow consistently fits.

Addressing Uncertainties in Climate–Ecosystem Feedbacks in the Arctic: Ten Priority Research Questions for Integrated Observation and Modeling

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
Uncertainties exist in the biosphere–climate feedbacks in the Arctic. Remote and ground measurements play complementary roles in detecting possible changes. A critical next step is identification of key drivers of the global changes for future projections. ABSTRACT Positive biosphere–climate feedbacks are likely to amplify the Arctic warming, yet major
