Pests for Dinner: Dietary Composition of Insectivorous Bats in a Fragmented Tropical Dry Forest
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.Insectivorous bats are key predators of a wide array of arthropods, including species that act as disease vectors and pests, yet such ecological roles remain poorly studied in tropical regions. In this study, we aimed to describe the diet of five insectivorous bat species from the genera Balantiopteryx, Myotis, Mormoops, and Pteronotus inhabiting a ...

Social media highlights the overlooked impact of cats on arthropods
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 460-465, March 2026.The impact of domestic cats on vertebrate biodiversity is unequivocal; however, we still know little about their effects on arthropods. By analysing over 17,000 photos and videos from social media platforms (iStock and TikTok), we documented 550 predation events of cats on arthropods.

Intimate disclosure in online‐only friendships predicts adolescents' depressive symptoms
Journal of Research on Adolescence, Volume 36, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract Adolescents frequently use social media to form online‐only friendships (OOFs; i.e., friendships that are exclusive to digital platforms), raising questions about their emotional impact. While OOFs may provide social support and increase well‐being, they could also displace in‐person relationships or increase exposure to online risks.

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2986-3002, March 2026.Summary The vesicle trafficking system enables multidirectional cargo fluxes between endomembrane compartments. However, vesicle trafficking plays dual roles during pathogen infections. In plants, it mediates autophagic immune responses but can also be hijacked by pathogens to facilitate successful infections.

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2877-2893, March 2026.Summary The morphology of starch granules is a major determinant of the functional and nutritional properties of starch and is highly variable among cereal species. Much of this morphological variation stems from differences in the spatial and temporal patterns of starch granule initiation in amyloplasts during grain development.

Transcriptomic prey‐capture responses in convergently evolved carnivorous pitcher plants
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2559-2573, March 2026.Summary The Australian pitcher plant Cephalotus and the Asian pitcher plant Nepenthes exhibit striking morphological and functional similarities, serving as compelling examples of convergent evolution. Although trapping pitchers in both lineages represent some of the most elaborate leaf structures in angiosperms, it remains unknown whether their ...

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2263-2272, March 2026.Summary Soil organic matter (SOM) is primarily derived from leaf and root inputs, but the relative contributions of each are difficult to study without the use of isotopic tracers. Furthermore, associations between trees and mycorrhizal fungi can influence the production and persistence of SOM.

Changing Policy Narratives in Addressing Indonesia's Deforestation
Review of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Indonesia's forests stand at the crossroads of economic prosperity and ecological preservation, where the demand for timber and palm oil clashes with the urgent need to protect biodiversity and mitigate climate change. The dual role of Indonesia's forests has led to decades of policy tension, primarily contesting their function as engines of ...
