Cuticular Hydrocarbons‐Revealed Functional Groups and Seasonal Acclimation in Sympatric Fig Wasp Mating Assemblages

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study demonstrates how climate‐driven seasonal variation shapes the chemical phenotypes of five sympatric fig wasp species. We show that cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are sex‐ and species‐specific signals linked to male mate choice and functional guilds, revealing a chemical basis for niche differentiation within a shared host system. Importantly,

Regeneration Strategies in Seed Plants: A Continuum Shaping Survival

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Seed plants dominate terrestrial ecosystems in part because regeneration is not a single event, but a coordinated sequence of traits acting across time and space. Here, we synthesize regeneration strategies in seed plants as a continuous, integrated framework spanning pre‐germination regulation, germination timing, seedling emergence, soil seed banking,

Habitat Heterogeneity Drives Niche Partitioning and Morphological Divergence in Two Parapatric Diploderma Lizard Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study focused on two closely related parapatric species, Diploderma yangi and D. slowinskii, which occupy contrasting microhabitats across the Nujiang River Basin in western China. The analysis integrated environmental, morphological, and dietary datasets to elucidate how niche partitioning stabilizes species boundaries in a landscape ...

Plant adaptive strategies respond to environmental change across European grassland habitats

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Grassland ecosystems are facing rapid and ongoing change driven by intensified land‐use and accelerated climate change, highlighting the urgent need to understand their potential adaptation and response to environmental change. We analyzed data from 52 980 vegetation plots spanning all major grassland habitats in Europe (including alpine, rocky, sandy,

Enhanced Nitrogen Uptake and Early Flowering Mitigate Fitness Costs Associated With Glufosinate Resistance in Goosegrass (Eleusine indica)

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Schematic representation of fitness trade‐offs driven by the GS1‐1Ser59Gly mutation in glufosinate‐resistant Eleusine indica. ABSTRACT Herbicide resistance in weeds is frequently accompanied by fitness trade‐offs that compromise survival and reproductive success.
