Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 580-601, April 2026.ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset

Catalytic Amyloids: Turning Fibrils Into Biocatalysts
Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 10, 9 March 2026.Amyloids, traditionally associated with diseases, have emerged as versatile catalytic scaffolds. From natural amyloid sequences to bioinspired and de novo designs, we highlight strategies to construct catalytic active sites and anchor enzymes onto fibrils, creating versatile nanomaterials with tunable activities. ABSTRACT Amyloids have been regarded as

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.We generated new genomic resources for the invasion front of fall armyworm in Oceania, confirming that the new invasions conform to the population structure initially identified in Benin. We also identified SNVs associated with insecticide resistance that should be a focus of future tracking of the invasion front and established populations.

Clashing in Murky Waters: On Amphibian Mosquito Suppression
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.This study compares the predator efficiency of common European amphibian species to common invertebrate mosquito predators. Focusing on the cosmopolitan mosquito Culex pipiens, known for transmitting pathogens like West Nile virus, we assessed predator rates, sex‐specific efficiency in amphibians, and the impact of predator presence on mosquito ...
