Shedding Light on Shining Leaf Chafers: Rutelinae MacLeay, 1819 (Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea, Scarabaeidae) as a Neglected Group of Pollinators

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1584-1599, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The interactions between insects and angiosperms date back to millions of years ago. Among the groups of pollinating animals, it is estimated that insects are responsible for pollinating more than 70% of angiosperms. Coleoptera is one of the most studied insect groups for pollination.

Resilience of Indigenous healthcare systems: Ethnobotanical approaches among the Baka, southeastern Cameroon

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2879-2894, November 2025.
Abstract Indigenous Peoples rely on biodiversity and traditional knowledge for health and well‐being, yet biological and cultural systems are threatened by ecological and social changes. Limited understanding exists on the factors that support the resilience of Indigenous Peoples' healthcare systems—the capacity of a healthcare system to adapt to ...

Banana breeding by genome design

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 11, Page 2816-2847, November 2025.
Bananas and plantains likely originated from hybridizations of four wild Musa species. This review highlights advances in banana genomics, genetics, and breeding, emphasizing genome sequencing breakthroughs and genomic‐assisted tools like selection and gene editing, and explores future prospects for improving key agronomic traits.

Underground Warfare: Mechanisms of Trichoderma in the Suppression of the March of Fusarium in Banana Plants—Advances, Limitations and Perspectives

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 173, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), remains one of the most devastating threats to global banana production, particularly with the spread of Tropical Race 4 (TR4). Conventional management options are limited due to the pathogen's persistence in soil, wide host range and difficulty of eradication.

Upstream Deforestation and Nonnative Crops Affect Leaf Breakdown and Aquatic Invertebrate Assemblages in Streams

Freshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Stream ecosystem functioning and community structure are influenced by local and catchment land use. In mosaic landscapes, agricultural activities can also affect leaf breakdown and detritivore assemblages in downstream forest reaches. We evaluated the combined effects of upstream deforestation and the input of a nonnative crop species on leaf

Spatial distribution patterns and formation of global spermatophytes

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 10, Page 2668-2685, October 2025.
The global Spermatophyte Spatial Evolutionary System defines 18 distribution types and six supertypes across three floristic elements, primarily formed between the Eocene and Miocene and shaped by climate, long‐distance dispersal, and tectonic movement, revealing that similar distribution patterns of spermatophytes were driven by comparable formation ...
