Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

A Comprehensive Review of the Key Factors Affecting Biogas Production From Anaerobic Digestion of Organic Waste

open access: yesCleanMat, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 74-98, June 2026.
Efficient conversion of organic waste to biogas depends on the coordinated optimization of feedstock composition, pretreatment, operational parameters, reactor design, and microbial community dynamics. This review highlights how these interacting factors improve methane yield and process stability, advancing anaerobic digestion as a practical pathway ...

Scale‐Dependent Attraction of Invasive Raccoons to Bait Sites: Behavioural and Proximity Responses in a Post‐Disaster Agricultural Landscape

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using cafeteria‐style bait trials and GPS telemetry, we investigated scale‐dependent responses of invasive raccoons to baiting in a post‐nuclear‐disaster agricultural landscape in Fukushima, Japan. Baiting induced strong short‐term and daily‐scale attraction to trap sites but did not restructure long‐term space use, highlighting the need to balance ...

Complex History of Organellar Introgression in Nothofagus Trees: Chloroplast and Mitochondrial Capture Facilitated by Natural Selection

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Field photograph of an ancient Nothofagus tree covered with epiphytic lichens in the Patagonian temperate rainforest. This genus serves as a key model for investigating organellar introgression and evolutionary genomics in South America. ABSTRACT Hybridization is widespread across diverse groups of organisms, and in some cases, organellar genomes of ...

The Mussels That Came in From the Cold: Long‐Term Effects of the Population Collapse in the 1960s May Explain Low Abundances of Boreal Mussels in the Subarctic Despite the Warming

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Arctic warming is predicted to have a positive effect on boreal species. To test this hypothesis, we gathered and analyzed two datasets on blue mussels Mytilus from the Murman Coast of the Barents Sea. The first dataset contained data on the age structure of a mussel population monitored from 2001 to 2020, while the second dataset contained data on ...

Chloroplast Genome Insights of Gleditsia japonica var. velutina and Evolutionary Implications for Variation and Phylogeny in Gleditsia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study presents the first comprehensive chloroplast genome analysis of the critically endangered G. japonica var. velutina, providing essential insights into its evolutionary divergence within the genus Gleditsia and offering a critical genomic foundation for its conservation.
