Using Stochastic Simulations to Shed Light on How to Deploy Speed Breeding and Genomic Selection in Self‐Pollinated Recurrent Breeding Programs

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Speed breeding can shorten breeding cycles and, when combined with genomic selection, can accelerate genetic gain. Yet it remains unclear how different integration strategies affect long‐term response, genetic variance and cost‐efficiency in small public programs.

maxRgain—An R Package for Maximising Genetic Gains in Polyclonal Selection

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyclonal selection, which was developed in the context of ancient grapevine varieties, uses intravarietal variability to improve the resilience and sustainability of viticulture. Based on quantitative genetics and linear mixed models, this approach predicts genotypic effects to select a group of clones that, as a whole, satisfy target ...

A review of ecological risks of coral reef interventions

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, essential for biodiversity, livelihoods, and global economies, face severe threats from climate change and other stressors. Curbing greenhouse emissions is crucial, but the urgent situation also calls for immediate intervention strategies.

Multi‐generation analysis of whether local or genetically mixed populations perform best in restoration plantings

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Proper selection of genetic material is critical for restoring populations, with local seed often selected to maximize local adaptation. But if local populations are small, inbred, or maladapted, then including genotypes from various populations may enhance population growth and long‐term adaptation.

Evolution of Crematogaster sordidula (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) Ants in the Mediterranean Region During Plio‐Pleistocene Climatic Changes

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding insect responses to global climate change involves identifying strategies used during past climate oscillations. Phylogeography offers a powerful framework to unravel how historical climatic and geological events have shaped the spatial genetic patterns of species, providing critical insights into evolutionary processes, whereas ...

The Taboo of Withdrawal: Firsthand Perspectives From Former Doctoral Candidates in Poland and Portugal

Higher Education Quarterly, Volume 80, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In knowledge‐based societies, withdrawal from doctoral education is often seen and spoken about as embarrassing, undesirable, and awkward. Emerging from complex conditions—a mix of profoundly personal factors and weighty contextual factors—withdrawal tends to be a silenced or shamed process, producing a layered dynamic of taboo upon taboo upon
