Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We investigated how Black‐necked Cranes and Common Cranes coexist in agro‐wetland landscapes of southwest China by reconstructing their plant‐based diets using eDNA metabarcoding. Black‐necked Cranes maintained broad, stable diets centered on natural vegetation, while Common Cranes shifted dynamically to energy‐dense crops, leading to progressive niche

Terniopsis chanthaburiensis (Podostemaceae), a new record for China and its complete plastid genome
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.The genus Terniopsis consists of plants that have not been thoroughly studied, with many species remaining taxonomically unresolved. In this study, Terniopsis chanthaburiensis is reported as a new record of China based on morphological traits. Then, we assembled and annotated its chloroplast genome based on genome skimming data.

Seasonal variation in wild pig (Sus scrofa) diet revealed by DNA metabarcoding
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.Using DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, we investigated the diet of wild pigs at an extensive bottomland hardwood forest ecosystem within Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Arkansas. We found that wild pig diet was highly diverse and included at least 74 plant families and 106 genera and 23 species of vertebrates.

Flowering Asynchrony and Temporal Mate Restriction in Tropical Peat Swamp Forest Trees
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.Tropical peat swamp forest trees flower asynchronously, restricting mating opportunities between conspecifics. Using an 18‐year dataset from Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, we show that while the same individual trees tend to flower together through time, there is enough turnover in which trees flower contemporaneously that lifetime mate restriction and
