Yes, we CAM! First evidence of CAM photosynthesis in a carnivorous plant

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 272-281, January 2026.
Evidence for weak, facultative CAM is reported for the first time in a carnivorous plant, i.e., in Mexican representatives of Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae). Abstract Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a photosynthetic adaptation enabling higher CO2 concentration close to Rubisco and increased water use efficiency.

Shrub encroachment promotes positive feedbacks from herbivores that reinforce ecosystem change

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Herbivores can be drivers of ecosystem change by triggering and reinforcing vegetation transitions. Such processes may be prevalent in drylands with low productivity where herbivore abundances are linked to climate‐driven resource pulses.
