Clarifying nomenclatural uncertainties in Jupunba (Caesalpinioideae, Leguminosae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Molecular phylogenetic studies have prompted substantial revisions in the systematics of the former genus Abarema, resulting in the reinstatement of the genera Punjuba and Jupunba, and a re‐circumscription of Abarema. Despite these advances, some taxa still require nomenclatural adjustments to reflect monophyletic lineages.

Emergence and Genomic Characterization of a Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolate From a New Clone in Brazil

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 5, Page 261-267, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) has emerged globally as a major public health concern, often associated with severe community‐acquired and healthcare‐associated human infections. Despite alerts from PAHO/WHO on convergent hvKp strains with multidrug resistance in Latin America, comprehensive data from Brazil, the region's largest ...

Evolutionary insights from complete mitochondrial genomes of Aedes albopictus and Culex pipiens molestus (Diptera: Culicidae)

Animal Cells and Systems
Mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are powerful molecular tools for exploring phylogenetic relationships, deciphering adaptation and divergence, as well as disease transmission potential among insects.

Transition From Land to Sea: Comparative Genomics Illuminates the Adaptive Evolution of the Intertidal Spider

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...

Beyond Co‐Occurrence: Multi‐Scale Evidence for Segregation‐Dominated Plant Networks in the French Alps

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using high‐resolution spatial data and a multi‐scale statistical framework, we disentangle plant co‐occurrence from true spatial associations across alpine communities in the French Alps. We discovered that local species associations are dependent on soil acidity and nitrogen rather than temperature. By building a global network from these associations,

The Origin and Diversification of Turmerics (Curcuma L.: Zingiberaceae) in Paleotropical Biodiversity Hotspots: The Role of Ancient Hybridisation and Historical Climate Change

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms driving biodiversity in the Indo‐Malayan hotspots, with a particular focus on the roles of ancient hybridisation and historical climate in shaping species diversity. Location The Indo‐Malayan realm, particularly the Western Ghats‐Sri Lanka and Indo‐Burma biodiversity hotspots.

Morphology, Ultrastructure, and Classification of Barthelonids (Metamonada Incertae Sedis): With Descriptions of Microbarthelona Gen. Nov., and Parabarthelona Gen. Nov.

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Barthelona is a genus of anaerobic flagellates that forms a sister lineage to Fornicata along with Skoliomonas. Although “Barthelona spp.” are known to separate into three distinct lineages, their detailed morphology has not been examined, and their taxonomic classification is incomplete.

Eukaryovorous Predation in Evolutionarily Significant Excavate‐Like Flagellates

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that the Last Eukaryotic Common Ancestor (LECA) resembled contemporary excavates, a non‐monophyletic group of deep branching flagellates. Here we explore the functional ecology of distantly related deep‐branching “excavate‐like” flagellates (in Alveolata and Provora) that share with many excavates a vane‐bearing ...

Plastid and nuclear phylogenomics of Cyphostemma (Vitaceae) provide new insights into genome size evolution across sub‐Saharan Africa

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1399-1420, May 2026.
Some African Cyphostemma species evolved much larger genomes as they adapted to dry, rocky habitats. These expansions are linked to succulent traits and specialization on nutrient‐rich limestone outcrops. The findings show how climate‐driven aridification shaped plant evolution and highlight broader genome‐environment patterns across flowering plants ...
