Avoid Confusion! Does Survival Processing Shape the Spontaneous Use of Learning Strategies for Distinguishing Edible and Poisonous Mushroom Twins?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hunter‐gatherers faced the survival threat of confusing edible mushrooms with their poisonous twins, imposing selection pressure on those who failed to detect subtle visual differences. Grounded in the ancestral priorities framework, which posits that the human mind is adapted to handle prehistoric challenges, we investigated whether humans ...

Climate Data Agency: Intra‐Active Knowledge Production Between the Human and Non‐Human World

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract In this intervention, we engage with Karen Barad's agential‐realist concept of intra‐action to explore how knowledge about climate emerges from the intra‐active entanglements between climate scientists and nature through processes of data collection, representation and interpretation.

A Roadmap for Breeding Sweet Tomatoes

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
This graphical abstract outlines four breeding strategies for enhancing sugar content and sweetness in tomato fruits: (1) Identification of key genes and functional variant loci regulating fruit sugar accumulation through systematic germplasm collection, genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), map‐based cloning, and reverse genetics approaches.

Sensory Morphology of Geodorcus helmsi (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) and its Relevance to the Conservation of New Zealand Stag Beetles

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Insects use sensilla to detect chemical and physical stimuli, mediating behaviours such as mate finding, foraging and mechanosensory responses. The distribution and density of sensilla can be examined using scanning electron microscopy. Investigating these structures can help elucidate rarely observed behaviours (e.g. mate finding and foraging).

The Relationship Between Parental Smartphone Addiction and Child Problematic Media Use: Mediating Roles of Child–Parent Conflict and Parental Psychological Distress and Validation of the Child–Parent Relationship Scale‐Short Form in Arabic

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To study how parental psychological distress and parent–child conflict (PCC) mediate the relationships between smartphone dependence in caregivers and their children's problematic usage of media and to validate the Child–Parent Relationship Scale‐Short Form (CPRS‐SF) in Arabic, a valuable tool that assesses intrafamilial connections.
