Wetland soil history shapes microbial community composition, while hydrologic disturbance alters greenhouse gas fluxes

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract While wetlands represent a small fraction (~5%–10%) of the world's land surface, it is estimated that one‐third of wetlands have been lost due to human activities. Wetland habitat loss decreases ecosystem benefits, including improved water quality and climate change mitigation.

Seasonal variation in wild pig (Sus scrofa) diet revealed by DNA metabarcoding

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
Using DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, we investigated the diet of wild pigs at an extensive bottomland hardwood forest ecosystem within Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Arkansas. We found that wild pig diet was highly diverse and included at least 74 plant families and 106 genera and 23 species of vertebrates.

Undervalued Ecosystems: Ponds Boost Regional Macrophyte Diversity

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Ponds—depressional wetlands with ≤ 2 ha—are largely undervalued worldwide, despite serving as crucial diversity reservoirs. However, the extent to which ponds support diversity at the landscape scale is still underappreciated. Here, we investigate the contributions of ponds to macrophyte beta and gamma diversity in a subtropical wetland ...

Habitat Structure Shapes Mollusc Assemblages in an Urban Semiarid River: Implications for Conservation and Public Health

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Fine‐scale environmental drivers shape freshwater mollusc assemblages in urban semiarid rivers. We examined how substrate composition and water chemistry influence mollusc richness and abundance along a polluted stretch of a river in the Brazilian semiarid region. Surveys at five sites recorded 2479 individuals.

Habitat‐Based Predictions of Bridle Shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) in the Northeastern United States

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We developed local and regional models for Maine and New Hampshire that may be used to focus bridle shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) surveys on areas with high predicted habitat suitability. This is significant because bridle shiners receive protection or concern status in thirteen states and two Canadian provinces: Limited data show that bridle shiners ...

Jumlah trakea pada daun Ludwigia adscendens (L.) Hara dalam kondisi tergenang: sebuah gejala plastisitas anatomi

Journal of Biological Researches, 1999
This study was conducted to reveal the influence of waterlogging on the number of tracheas in each vascular bundle of Ludwigia adscendens (L.) Hara leaf. This plant is well known as aquatic weed which can grow floating on water surface.

Strip Crops and Intercrops Outperform Crop Rotations for Weed Management Under Conservation Agriculture in Zimbabwe

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT High weed infestation remains a major constraint on crop productivity for smallholder farmers practising Conservation Agriculture (CA). Fewer, more diverse weeds are desirable to reduce competition and provide ecosystem services. Crop diversification can help, but it is not yet clear which species combinations and layouts are most effective ...

Ludwigia sericea (Cambess.) H.Hara (Onagraceae) na Restinga do Espírito Santo: Primeiro registro, distribuição e implicações para a conservação de áreas úmidas

Paubrasilia
O gênero Ludwigia (Onagraceae) possui distribuição pantropical, com destaque para América do Sul. No Brasil, ocorrem 47 espécies, sendo 33 na Mata Atlântica, mas apenas seis registradas no Espírito Santo, número provavelmente subestimado.
