Unraveling genetic diversity and loci conferring leaf blast resistance in East and Southern African rice germplasm

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Rice blast remains a major disease, causing severe yield losses in rice‐producing regions and posing a threat to global food security. Understanding genetic variation within germplasms is crucial for identifying locally adapted genotypes with beneficial alleles for improving resistance to this disease.

Pleistocene Sea‐Level Fluctuation Shapes Archipelago‐Wide Population Structure in the Critically Endangered Lord Howe Island Cockroach Panesthia lata

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We demonstrate that populations of the critically endangered Lord howe Island cockroach Panesthia lata were connected by land bridges during the last glacial period. Its 4 isolated populations are now highly inbred, suggesting that conservation translocation may be a viable strategy for conservation. ABSTRACT The Lord Howe Island Group (LHIG) is one of

Retracing the Response of Rangifer to Postglacial Climate Change in Arctic Islands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our study examines the role of sea ice and glacial retreat in shaping the biogeography of Rangifer tarandus across Arctic islands since the last glacial period. Using mitochondrial DNA analysis and approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) modelling, we found that Arctic island dispersal occurred during the Holocene, with sea ice cover likely influencing ...

PhyloRef: A Semi‐Automated Workflow for eDNA Reference Database Curation via Phylogenetic Anomaly Detection

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
PhyloRef processes complete mitochondrial genomes with optional multi‐gene concatenation to flag three categories of phylogenetic anomalies based on tree topology and annotates ambiguous sequences with “similar_to=” labels. The workflow successfully curated 7600+ chondrichthyan and actinopterygian sequences from NCBI, identifying and removing 410 ...

On the Limits of Alpine Plants: A Systematic Review of the Factors Behind Species' Elevational Range Limits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.
