Does the abiotic environment influence the distribution of flower and fruit colors?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Premise Color in flowers and fruits carries multiple functions, from attracting animal partners (pollinators, dispersers) to mitigating environmental stress (cold, drought, UV‐B). With research historically focusing on biotic interactions as selective agents, however, it remains unclear whether abiotic stressors impact flower and fruit colors ...

Passive acoustic monitoring can provide insights into occupancy dynamics and impacts of disturbance for at‐risk species

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Climate and land‐use change are dramatically altering the frequency, intensity, and extent of ecological disturbances, which threaten the persistence of at‐risk species. To curb the pace and scale of disturbances, balance management and conservation priorities, and alleviate associated population declines, managers require high‐quality ...

Modeling Climate Change Impacts on a Socioeconomically Vital Plant: The Case of Comanthera elegans (Goldenfoot Flower)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Comanthera elegans, an ecologically important species in rocky grasslands, is projected to face significant habitat loss under future climate change scenarios. Modeling with the Maxent algorithm showed that its suitable habitats, defined by high rainfall seasonality and moderate temperatures, are at risk, especially under high greenhouse gas emissions.

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

open access: yesEcology 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 ...
