Effects of uncrewed aerial vehicle–applied triclopyr plus fluroxypyr rates on weeds and desirable forbs in Kansas tallgrass prairie

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract We studied the impacts of uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV)‐applied triclopyr + fluroxypyr on rangeland weeds and other forbs in native tallgrass prairie. Two rates were tested: high (0.63 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.21 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr) and low (0.21 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.07 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr).

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2519-2533, September 2026.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2346-2367, September 2026.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Seed mixes of intermediate grass:forb ratio create vegetation of greater ecosystem service provision in restorations

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 6, September 2026.
Abstract Restoring pollination services using forb‐dense seed mixes is seen as a possible way to mitigate global pollinator decline. Research is needed on whether this management factor impacts other ecosystem services that could be influenced by greater emphasis on forbs than grasses in seed mixes.

Pollinators in Blackcurrant Orchards: Complementary Roles of Sown and Spontaneous Flower Strips and Limited Spillover of Small Wild Bees Within Fields

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Sowing flower strips and preserving spontaneous flowers are commonly recommended to support pollinators in agricultural landscapes. In nine blackcurrant orchards, these resources played complementary roles: the abundance of small and large wild bees was positively associated with spontaneous flowers, whereas hoverfly abundance was positively associated
