A synthetic eco‐evolutionary proposal for the conservation of wild relatives of the olive tree

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1904-1924, September 2026.
Societal Impact Statement Crop wild relatives (CWR) are valuable sources of genetic diversity for plant breeding. However, the identification of wild untapped genetic resources (i.e., unexploited in crops) is not always straightforward. We propose a methodology to guide the identification and conservation of these resources that integrates both genetic

Mapping the global threat of Mythimna separata (Walker) and its economic implications for Brazil's agriculture

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9097-9106, September 2026.
Global models identified high‐risk areas for Mythimna separata invasion, highlighting major economic vulnerability for Brazilian crops and guiding targeted prevention and management strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND Identifying high‐risk areas for the introduction of invasive alien species is particularly important for agricultural pests with a broad ...

Human‐Caused Leopard Deaths in Sri Lanka Are Concentrated in Central Highlands' Estate Mosaics: Evidence From 17 Years of Mortality Records 人为因素导致斯里兰卡豹死亡事件集中于中部高地种植园镶嵌景观:来自 17 年死亡记录的证据

Wildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 107-117, September 2026.
Human‐caused leopard deaths in Sri Lanka averaged 9.65 ± 4.5 records year−1 over 17 years (2008–2024; n = 164), with records highly clustered in the central highland mosaic ecosystem. Mortality was dominated by adult males and driven primarily by snaring in plantation landscapes, and indicating an increase approximately 0.7–0.8 deaths per year.

Toward Peace With Nature: Protected Areas Effectively Mitigate Wild Ungulate‐Livestock Competition Despite Spatial Mismatch on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Competition for forage between wild ungulates and grazing livestock poses a critical challenge for sustaining grassland ecosystems and pastoral livelihoods. Protected areas (PAs) may mitigate competition, but quantitative multi‐species assessments that simultaneously integrate habitat overlap, forage availability, and conservation ...

Squash silverleaf disorder and whitefly (Bemisia tabaci MEAM1) infestation: Implications for plant disease management in a changing climate

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 2, September 2026.
Squash Silverleaf Disorder (SLD) is growing in its economic impact due to the invasive behaviour of the silverleaf whitefly (Bemisia tabaci MEAM1). In this review we summarize what is currently known about the whitefly‐squash interaction, how both the disease and the whitefly are being affected by climate change, and discuss current and novel ...

Leveraging urban greenspaces to bolster regional conservation priorities

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
This article demonstrates that urban greenspaces currently excluded from the San Francisco Bay Area's regional conservation plan offer significant, measurable conservation value. We found these overlooked areas host vital biodiversity and critically improve habitat connectivity, highlighting that incorporating urban greenspaces will be key in meeting ...

Change in habitat over time for the rare, endemic Pediocactus paradinei

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
Pediocactus paradinei is a rare endemic cactus on the Colorado Plateau that may be increasingly vulnerable to ongoing ecological and climatic change. In 2022, we resampled ecological monitoring plots originally surveyed in 2005 to assess changes in vegetation, habitat conditions, and characteristics related to pollinator habitat across the species ...
