CO 2‐Assisted Foaming of PLA–Cellulose Acetate Blends for Peat‐Free Horticultural Substrates

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 4005-4018, June 2026.
Engineered porous substrate facilitating seed incorporation, water retention, and plant growth. ABSTRACT This study investigates carbon dioxide assisted (CO2) foaming of polylactic acid (PLA)–cellulose acetate (CA) blends to develop biodegradable substrates for horticultural applications.

Henry Trimen: Under‐appreciated pioneer in the typification of Linnaean plant names?

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract In 1887, Henry Trimen published a paper summarising the contents of the Hermann Herbarium, in what is now the Natural History Museum, London (BM), in terms of the plant names published by Linnaeus. Trimen referred to the Hermann specimens as types of Linnaeus's names.

Hairy, hairy quite contrary: Pollination and functional floral traits in a hirsute carrion‐scented stapeliad

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Floral mimicry of decaying substrates of animal origin, such as carrion or faeces, is associated with unusual traits such as geoflory, deep maroon or yellow colouration, floral hairs and unpleasant odour, but the functional significance of these traits for attracting and manipulating pollinators has seldom been examined.

Mycorrhizal symbiosis and environmental conditions shape understory herb diversity in a large temperate forest region

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1619-1631, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understorey herbaceous plants are a vital component of forest biodiversity in temperate forests. However, the mechanisms underlying their community assembly and species coexistence remain poorly understood.

Comparative Analysis of Diversification Rates in Clonal and Non‐Clonal Flowering Plants

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using data from 16,465 angiosperm species across 2,997 genera, we classified genera as clonal, mixed, or non‐clonal and estimated diversification using genus‐level phylogeny with DR, MoM, and BAMM. Clonal genera consistently showed lower diversification rates than mixed and non‐clonal genera across all methods.

Social Representations of Bedside Milk Expression Among Mothers of Preterm Newborns in Neonatal Intensive Care Units

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 6362-6372, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To understand the social representations of bedside milk expression (BME) among mothers of preterm newborns in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Design Qualitative descriptive study. Methods The study was conducted from July to August 2024 in two NICUs of a referral maternity hospital in Fortaleza, Brazil.

Phylogenetic history shapes the composition of floral scents in a specialized pollination mutualism

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3428-3443, June 2026.
Summary Most studies of the chemical ecology of plant–pollinator interactions emphasize the role of pollinator‐mediated selection in shaping floral scent composition. Nevertheless, phylogeny may constrain the metabolic pathways underlying these profiles, thereby influencing the evolutionary trajectory of the emitted signals.

Endophytic and ectomycorrhizal, an overlooked dual ecological niche? Insights from natural environments and Russula species

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3946-3960, June 2026.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) are key components of temperate ecosystems, and recent studies suggest that they can also inhabit non‐EcM plant roots as endophytes. We aimed to (1) provide new evidence of EcMF colonization of non‐EcM hosts, (2) offer direct microscopic confirmation of such endophytism and (3) assess factors influencing ...
