Influence of drought stress on the metabolite and ion composition in nectar and nectaries of different day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Drought stress leads to reduced nectar secretion and alters nectar composition of day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species, which may impair plant–pollinator interactions. Abstract The frequencies of droughts worldwide will increase in the future due to climate changes. Nectar composition of plant species varies in relation to pollinator and can also

Seeing Through an Ant's Eyes: Do Entomopathogenic Fungi Extend Their Cognition to Their Hosts?

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐cognitivist approaches recognize cognition as a phenomenon that involves not just brains but all the sensorimotor apparatus of organisms. This means that brains are not always required for the emergence of cognition and that every organism can, in principle, be cognitive, unlocking a theoretical framework to explain the complex adaptive ...

Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.

Making Learning Personally Relevant: Sensemaking Assets Used in Families' Discussions While Using a Pollinator‐Focused Mobile Augmented Reality App

open access: yesScience Education, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 525-542, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study seeks to better understand the unique sensemaking assets that rural families weave into their outdoor learning experience while using a location‐based mobile app focused on healthy habitats for solitary bees. The project included mobile augmented reality (AR) technologies, which are increasingly used as educational tools at informal

Phenomenal knowledge and phenomenal causality

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 212-232, March 2026.
Abstract There has been extensive debate over whether we can have phenomenal knowledge in the case of epiphenomenalism. This article aims to bring that debate to a close. I first develop a refined causal account of knowledge—one that is modest enough to avoid various putative problems, yet sufficiently robust to undermine the epiphenomenalist position.

Functional Materials for Environmental Energy Harvesting in Smart Agriculture via Triboelectric Nanogenerators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 13, 12 February 2026.
This review explores functional and responsive materials for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) in sustainable smart agriculture. It examines how particulate contamination and dirt affect charge transfer and efficiency. Environmental challenges and strategies to enhance durability and responsiveness are outlined, including active functional layers ...

Critique of a Radically New Model for Plasma Membrane Bilayer Organization

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 2, February 2026.
We critique a model by Doktorova et al. (doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2025.02.034) that challenges textbook depictions of the distribution of lipids in plasma membrane bilayers. They propose that the outer leaflet has about half as many phospholipids as the inner leaflet (left figure) and is compensated for by an excess of cholesterol (right figure ...

Potential Distribution of Linepithema humile (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in South Korea: An Ensemble Species Distribution Modeling Approach

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The Argentine ant (Linepithema humile) was first discovered in Korea in Busan in 2019. Due to a lack of occurrence data, its distribution in Korea remains difficult to predict. This study constructed a single and ensemble model based on BIOMOD2 using occurrence data and environmental variables from South and North America and projected it to Korea. The
