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,

Single‐Staged Combined Retrograde Subchondral Drilling and In Situ Autologous or Micronized Cartilage Repair With Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate for Focal Patellofemoral Chondral Lesions

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Patellofemoral cartilage lesions are uniquely challenging to treat due to high joint contact pressures, complex tracking mechanics, and limited intrinsic healing potential. Conventional methods such as debridement, microfracture, or staged autologous chondrocyte implantation may disrupt the calcified cartilage layer, violate the subchondral ...

Ganoderic Acid A Ameliorates Pentylenetetrazol‐Induced Epilepsy in Mice via Activating KCNQ2

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
GA‐A binds and activates KCNQ2, thereby reducing epileptic‐like EEG discharges, the loss and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons, and improving anxiety and depression‐like behavioral changes. In addition, GA‐A inhibits neuroinflammation and alleviates oxidative stress independent of activating KCNQ2.

Tree Species Diversity, Canopy Height, and Soil Nutrient Availability Shape Leaf Insect Herbivory in Zhoushan Archipelago, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study explores the relationship between plant diversity and insect herbivory in island ecosystems, specifically the Zhoushan Archipelago, China. The results show that tree species diversity positively correlates with total herbivory, as well as the herbivory of three damage types, and interactions between plant diversity, soil nutrition, and tree ...

What Drives Seasonal Mat Dynamics in Eutrophic Lake: Allelopathy or Environmental Gradients?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
A two‐season field study of eutrophic Lake Oporzyńskie showed that phenolic compounds and water physicochemistry jointly, but unevenly, drive the mat dynamics of Cladophora glomerata and Lemna minor, with phenolics explaining a much larger part of the variability in mat size than physicochemical parameters.

Evolution of the α‐Glucosidase Gene Family in Apoidea

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study traces the origin of the α‐glucosidase gene family in bees back to approximately 140 million years ago, revealing that its evolutionary history closely aligns with the rise of angiosperms and coevolution. Furthermore, by identifying the core members Hbg1–3 and 28 key functional sites driven by positive selection, the study systematically ...
