Honokiol regulates Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)‐associated pulmonary fibrosis via the miR‐19a‐3p/POSTN axis

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 21, Page 6329-6351, November 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and subsequent pulmonary fibrosis are associated with high mortality and limited treatment options. Periostin (POSTN) is a profibrotic mediator predicted to be regulated by microRNA‐19a‐3p (miR‐19a‐3p), but the relevance of this axis in ARDS‐associated pulmonary fibrosis remains

Biochar‐Driven Microbial Shifts Enhance Feed Digestibility and Mitigate Methane Emissions in Hybrid Pennisetum Silage

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2026.
This study investigated the effects of cellulase, propionate, and cow dung biochar as additives on the silage quality of hybrid Pennisetum. The results indicated that the incorporation of biochar not only improved fermentation quality but also reduced methane production and enhanced in vitro dry matter digestibility.

Water Released From Vessel Embolism May Temporarily Halt Further Embolism in Tropical Dipterocarp Trees

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 7855-7870, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The formation of air bubbles in the xylem, known as embolism, reduces hydraulic conductivity and can ultimately lead to catastrophic failure of a tree's water transport system. When a vessel embolises, it releases water into the surrounding xylem tissue.

Application of close‐kin mark–recapture to an American black bear population using harvest samples

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 7, October 2026.
Abstract Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) offers a promising alternative to traditional mark–recapture methods for estimating wildlife population parameters. CKMR estimates demographic parameters by identifying genetic relationships between individuals, effectively “recapturing” parental genotypes through their offspring's genetic profiles.

From Soil to Canopy: Using Moisture Data From Soil and Tree Sensors to Predict Live Fuel Moisture and Guide Forest Management in a Mediterranean Coastal Woodland

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 7, October/November 2026.
ABSTRACT Ecosystem response to forest management and disturbance is governed by many factors and their interactions. This has historically made it difficult for practitioners to reach consensus on ideal management prescriptions and restoration activities.

Hardwood polyoses

, 2000
The article studies hardwood polyoses (hemicelluloses), being one of renewablenatural organic materials, next to cellulose. Hardwood polyoses differ from softwood ones with regard to their content and composition; their portion in hardwoods being up to 40%.

Corridors increase ant diversity over time

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Globally, habitat loss and fragmentation pose significant threats to biodiversity. Habitat corridors are often used in fragmented landscapes to reconnect isolated patches. However, understanding how corridors function can be challenging, as their effects may be confounded with simultaneous changes to habitat area, edge amount, and connectivity

Oxygen transmission rate in American oak barrel staves used for wine aging: Influence of wood macrostructure

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 13, Page 7844-7857, October 2026.
Abstract Background Oak barrels are widely used in wine and spirit aging, where oxygen transmission plays a key role in the development of chemical and sensory properties. In cooperage, stave selection is traditionally based on grain width; however, the extent to which grain and wood macrostructure determine oxygen transmission under barrel conditions ...
