Compost legacy effects in active roadside restoration: Medium‐term shifts in plant succession
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.Roadside restoration experiment established on volcanic tephra following road construction in Andean Patagonia. A single application of municipal (MC) or biosolids (BC) compost rapidly increased plant cover compared with untreated controls (C) but led to distinct, exotic‐dominated plant communities over 6 years.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.Our findings provide practical guidance for agroforestry management by demonstrating that intercropping with selected species can mitigate damage from leaf‐cutter ants in cacao agroforests. At the landscape scale, high tree cover was associated with low herbivory rates, emphasising the need to maintain or restore forested habitats.

Inhibitors of Sodium‐Dependent Serotonin Transporter Protein (SERT) as Potential New Nematicides
Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne cause major losses in agricultural production worldwide. To identify potentially useful chemical structures for developing new nematicides, this study initially aimed to determine in silico – using computationally efficient techniques – the protein target of chaetoglobosins A and B in these nematodes.

The ecology of attraction: Fruit traits and frugivore diversity in neotropical Piper
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 611-623, March 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits can benefit plant reproduction by enhancing seed dispersal by mutualistic frugivores (e.g. seed dispersal syndromes), but identifying the role of specific fruit traits in mediating frugivory is challenging because these traits can serve multiple functions ...

Coconut rhinoceros beetle Oryctes rhinoceros (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) confirmed in the Americas
EPPO Bulletin, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 511-517, December 2025.Abstract In 2022, a suspected incursion of Oryctes rhinoceros (coconut rhinoceros beetle, CRB) was reported in Bahía de Banderas, Nayarit, México, based on damage symptoms observed on coconut palms and photographs of beetles on a social media site. This prompted collaboration with local biologists and land managers, and a survey of the area with the ...
