Distribution and Occurrence of Cercospora Leaf Spot of Mungbean (Vigna radiata) and Associated Agronomic Factors in Ethiopia

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mungbean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) is a major cash‐generating pulse crop in Ethiopia's lowlands, serving as a key source of plant‐based protein and contributing to soil fertility. However, its production is severely constrained by Cercospora Leaf Spot (CLS), a destructive fungal disease.

New canopy legume species highlight liana gap sampling across Amazonian and Atlantic rain forests

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Lianas are a key component of the Neotropical flora, accounting for 10% of angiosperm richness and playing important ecological roles. However, the canopy preference of some species often leads to their underrepresentation in herbarium collections, thereby exacerbating Linnaean, Darwinian, and Wallacean shortfalls. The papilionoid legume genus

Long‐term changes in functional diversity and its implications for mammalian conservation and ecological restoration in a grassland ecosystem

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2379-2391, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Paleontological data provide information on natural environments prior to human influence, which are useful for tracking changes in ecosystem functioning through time. During the Late Pleistocene, about 10% of terrestrial mammalian species were extinct in South America.

Wood anatomical trait correlations with hydraulic efficiency and safety in an aseasonal wet tropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2701-2717, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Xylem anatomy underpins the capacity of trees to transport water while avoiding hydraulic failure, shaping species performance and resilience to climate change. However, the specific ways anatomical traits underpin hydraulic trade‐offs in tropical forests remain debated.

Savanna soil carbon accrual occurs through particulate organic matter from grass rather than tree biomass, regardless of atmospheric CO2 levels

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2532-2547, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Afforestation schemes in savannas are increasingly promoted as a carbon storage strategy despite threats to biodiversity. We also lack a clear understanding of how trees and grasses differentially contribute to the major carbon store in savannas, that is, soil organic ...
