The 5T Paradox of Triclosan: From Toiletries to Toxic Trash, a Growing Threat to Humanity

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) persists as a contaminant of concern in the Anthropocene, despite regulatory actions. Environmental dissemination continues through wastewater effluents, biosolid application, and improper disposal practices. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence regarding triclosan's environmental fate, transformation pathways ...

Development of a reliable PCR‐based protocol for molecular sexing of king vultures Sarcoramphus papa

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The king vulture Sarcoramphus papa is a large Neotropical scavenger that lacks external sexual dimorphism, complicating demographic, ecological, and conservation studies. Reliable sex identification is therefore essential, particularly for wild and managed populations. In this study, we assessed and optimized a PCR‐based molecular sexing protocol for S.

Portable, Benchtop and Micro‐XRF in Agriculture—Present and Future From the Hardware Perspective

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry has been an important tool in agricultural studies recently. This technique allows the multielemental, direct, and in situ analysis. The objective of this review is to evaluate the use of XRF in agriculture focusing on plant and soil samples based on indexed articles in the Scopus database from 2020 to ...

Precipitation shapes colour polymorphism in a widespread spider

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Colour polymorphism, the presence of multiple colour variants within a population, is a common example of intraspecific phenotypic variation and has served as a model for studying drivers of diversity.

When is the bait worth the risk? A mechanistic model of a compensatory ecological trap in seabirds

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological traps occur when organisms preferentially select habitats that reduce fitness. In seabird–fishery systems, fishery‐derived trophic subsidies can increase foraging success, reinforce habitat preference and indirectly enhance reproductive output or recruitment,

Belowground effects of ground‐dwelling large herbivores in forest ecosystems

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reviews how ground‐dwelling large herbivores affect forest soil and litter globally. Effects are context‐dependent, vary among species and forest types, and remain poorly studied in tropical forests, highlighting critical gaps in understanding nutrient cycling and ecosystem functioning.
