Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1568-1581, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

Quantification of the Eocene–Oligocene transition in the Zagros Foreland Basin: Palaeogeographic control on sequence architecture and tectonic signal preservation

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
New bio‐sequence framework for the Eocene–Oligocene transition in Zagros. Geochemical data validate basin depth control on SB1 vs. SB2 boundaries. SEM‐EDS analyses confirm subaerial exposure versus continuous deposition. Sensitivity analysis quantifies sub‐10% uncertainty in stratigraphic interpretations. Resolves the Pyrenean orogeny's variable impact

Complex History of Organellar Introgression in Nothofagus Trees: Chloroplast and Mitochondrial Capture Facilitated by Natural Selection

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Field photograph of an ancient Nothofagus tree covered with epiphytic lichens in the Patagonian temperate rainforest. This genus serves as a key model for investigating organellar introgression and evolutionary genomics in South America. ABSTRACT Hybridization is widespread across diverse groups of organisms, and in some cases, organellar genomes of ...

Insights Into Tribal‐Level Adaptive Evolution and Phylogeny in Soricinae From Mitogenome of the Chinese Endemic Sorex cansulus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study reveals that natural selection is the main force shaping the mitochondrial protein‐coding genes of zokors, with all five populations exhibiting strong purifying selection. Phylogenetic analysis and divergence time estimation strongly support the monophyly of the subfamily Soricinae, leading to key taxonomic revisions, including the ...

How Does the Phasianidae Maintain Its Diversity in Central China?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The hypothesis of allopatric speciation suggests that spatial separation is the major driver to speciation. The ecological niche theory suggests that differentiations in niche dimensions allow more species to co‐exist in ecological communities.

Oxytropis ikhbogdicus (Section Mesogaea, Fabaceae), A New Species From Mongolia Based on Morphological and Molecular Analyses

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Oxytropis ikhbogdicus, a new species endemic to Mongolia, is described and illustrated. The new species was confirmed by phylogenetic analysis based on the complete plastome genome and combined nuclear ribosome internal transcribed spacer (ITS), psbA‐trnH, and trnF‐L sequence data as well as morphological characteristics. ABSTRACT Oxytropis ikhbogdicus,

Origins Under the Blowtorch: Frequent Fire Shifts the Balance Between Sunda‐Origin and Sahul‐Origin Plant Species in a Tropical Savanna

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We examined the effect of fire frequency on the composition of vegetation of different biogeographic origins, to understand how frequently an ecosystem can be subject to fire but still retain its evolutionary diversity. There was dramatic structural and biogeographic change in less than 20 years from dry tropical woodlands into savannas, creating ...
