Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.Aerobic Actinobacteria belonging to the genus Frigoribacterium were isolated from adelgid Adelges (Aphrastasia) pectinatae collected from a Korean fir tree. Genomic analysis showed that these bacteria encode a range of factors that may be involved in the interactions between Frigoribacterium strains, adelgids and/or Korean fir trees.

Population Genomics of a Rare and a Common Wood–Inhabiting Fungal Species Across Europe
Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.ABSTRACT Many species have become threatened during the Anthropocene, requiring conservation strategies based on biological evidence. Wood‐inhabiting fungi face multiple threats due to a complex interplay of a short lifespan, removal of dead wood as a resource and climate change.

Water content estimation of conifer needles using leaf-level hyperspectral data
Frontiers in Plant ScienceWater is a crucial component for plant growth and survival. Accurately estimating and simulating plant water content can help us promptly monitor the physiological status and stress response of vegetation.

Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1124-1144, February 2026.Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

Palms are unique: clade‐level pattern of the leaf-height-seed strategy scheme
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionThe leaf-height-seed (LHS) plant ecology strategy scheme posits that functional traits such as leaf size, stem height and seed mass play a key role in life history of plants.

Molecular mechanisms of plant NLR activation and signalling
The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 3, February 2026.SUMMARY Plants rely on NLRs (nucleotide‐binding leucine‐rich repeat receptors) to recognise effector proteins secreted by pathogens into plant cells and to deliver disease resistance. Plant NLRs are broadly characterised by their N‐terminal domains, which include the TIR (Toll/interleukin‐1 receptor) and the CC (coiled‐coil) domains.
