Ribcage Morphology in Native South American Populations From Different Altitudes: Insights From a Global Comparative Framework

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Altitude shapes human morphology as highland populations must cope with cold and hypoxic environments. Although Andean highlanders have been proposed to exhibit larger and deeper ribcages, this idea is mainly based on research using disarticulated skeletal elements or non‐South American controls. The objective of this research is to

Fixed and Fluid: The Two Faces of Gender Roles—A Combined Study of Activity Patterns and Burial Practices in the European Neolithic

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 189, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study investigates gender roles in the European Neolithic by analyzing activity‐related skeletal changes (ARSCs) and burial practices at two Polgár microregion sites in Hungary: Polgár‐Ferenci‐hát (5300–5070 cal. bce) and Polgár‐Csőszhalom (4800–4650 cal. bce). Materials and Methods A total of 125 well‐preserved adult skeletons

Functional Morphology of the Scaphoid in Extant African Apes, Humans and Fossil Hominins

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 188, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives The morphology of the hominoid scaphoid has played a key role in functional and evolutionary hypotheses related to the emergence of hominin bipedalism and tool use. However, the scaphoid's complex morphology is challenging to comparatively analyze via traditional 2D linear measurements.

Genetic Rescue in Action: Long‐Term Monitoring Reveals Admixture‐Driven Fitness Gains in a Translocated Plant

open access: yesConservation Letters, Volume 18, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Mixed‐source translocation can reduce immediate extinction risk by increasing population size, genetic diversity, and individual fitness, but their long‐term consequences remain debated. To rescue the perennial plant Arenaria grandiflora from extinction in the Fontainebleau Forest (northern France), local and non‐local (Chinon, Central France)

Ancient Microbiomes as Mirrored by DNA Extracted From Century‐Old Herbarium Plants and Associated Soil

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 7, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Numerous specimens stored in natural history collections have been involuntarily preserved together with their associated microbiomes. We propose exploiting century‐old soils occasionally found on the roots of herbarium plants to assess the diversity of ancient soil microbial communities originally associated with these plants.

Stress, Life History, and Linear Enamel Hypoplasia: Insights From the Indigenous Populations of the Canary Islands

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 188, Issue 1, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study evaluated the influence of genetic diversity, subsistence strategies, age at death, and their interplay on the prevalence of linear enamel hypoplasias (LEHs) in the indigenous populations of the Canary Islands. Additionally, we test the predictive adaptive hypothesis and the plasticity/constraint hypothesis within this ...
