Early evolutionary history of the seed

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

The extension of the taxon cycle model to island plants: insights from the Canarian vascular flora

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Taxon cycle models describe eco‐evolutionary patterns of lineage colonization, diversification, and decline across archipelagos, inferring an important role for competition amongst ecologically similar taxa in driving concurrent niche changes.

Green Human Resource Management and Employee Green Behaviour in Hotels: Mediating Roles of Job Satisfaction and Work Well‐Being

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of green human resource management (GHRM) practices on employee green behavioural intention (GBI) and in‐role green behaviour (EGB‐IR) in the hospitality sector. Drawing on conservation of resources (COR) theory, we examine the mediating roles of job satisfaction and employee well‐being as psychological ...

Alkene Hydrogenation by a Cationic, Nine‐Coordinate Molybdenum(VI) Pentahydride Catalyst

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
While late 3d metals dominate efforts to replace precious metals in homogeneous hydrogenation, molybdenum has remained largely ignored. This work reveals that a nine‐coordinate pentahydrido molybdenum complex can hydrogenate a broad range of alkenes efficiently, demonstrating that early‐metal polyhydrides can serve as genuine catalysts rather than mere
