Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract The Pamir, located at the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is undergoing E–W extension within its interior, accommodated by micro‐block motions along major fault systems; however, the mechanisms governing this modern block kinematics remain elusive.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.We present a chromosome‐level genome assembly of Siraitia grosvenorii and, through comparative genomics, uncover a conserved UGT73 tandem array driving triterpenoid saponin diversification in Cucurbitaceae. Crystalized SgUGT73AM30 further reveals the regioselectivity mechanism underlying its catalytic activity.

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Premise The origin of endemic species in the European Alps is commonly attributed to the climatic oscillations of the Quaternary. Moehringia sect. Moehringia, with 12 of 15 species endemic to the Alps and mostly restricted to well‐known glacial refugia, is a prime system for investigating the diversification of a lineage originating in the ...

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Premise The modern distribution of the southern cypresses, Callitroideae (Cupressaceae), reflects a classic Gondwanan distribution. The initial diversification of Callitroideae is estimated to have occurred during the Cretaceous, yet fossils from this period are rare, hampering our understanding of its early evolutionary history.

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2487-2506, September 2026.Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.An integrated facies, MS and XRF‐based approach applied to the Tithonian–Berriasian Sidi Khalif Formation (central Tunisia) resolves five Tithonian and eight Berriasian third‐order sequences, showing how mixed carbonate–siliciclastic shelves record coupled eustatic, climatic and tectonic controls and providing a transferable template for similar mud ...

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.In the Miocene Eoil Basin, SE Korea, topographic confinement‐controlled the architecture of surge‐stacked resedimented volcaniclastic beds. Near the channel axis, successive debris flow surges amalgamated into thick, clast‐rich deposits; towards less‐confined margins, flow transformation produced graded and stratified trailing divisions.
