Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part II Deriving instrument‐specific correction equations for meta‐analyses using published data

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2455-2475, September 2026.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating the feeding ecology of vertebrates. Over the past decade, three‐dimensional topographic data from microscopic regions of tooth surfaces have been collected, and surface texture parameters have been published for both extant and fossil species.

Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part I Reproducibility of diet inference using different instruments

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2442-2454, September 2026.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has become a well‐established method for dietary inference and reconstruction in both extant and extinct mammals and other tetrapods. As the volume of available data continues to grow, researchers could benefit from combining published data from various studies to perform meta‐analyses.

Re‐sequencing 142 rice genomes reveals the fine‐scale population structure and phylogenetic affinities of landraces of Kashmir Valley: Evidence from domestication and adaptive signatures

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The emergence of rice (Oryza sativa) as a cultivated crop has represented a landmark in the history of agriculture in Kashmir Valley. Unlike winter cereals, such as wheat and barley, which exhibit clear West‐Asian origins, rice attained a different domestication trajectory linked to East‐Asian Neolithic cultures.

Morphological variations of lobate phytoliths from grasses in China and the south‐eastern United States

Diversity and Distributions, 2002
Abstract. Phytolith analysis of grasses is a useful tool in palaeoenvironmental and archaeobotanical research. Lobate phytolith is one of the most important morphotypes of grass phytoliths. This study describes morphological variations of diagnostic lobate phytoliths and produces a tentative classification scheme based on 250 modern grass species from ...

A role for phytosiderophores by Poaceae to acquire phosphorus in severely phosphorus‐impoverished habitats

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study demonstrates that several native grasses employed phytosiderophores not only for Fe acquisition, but probably also to mobilise P in their natural severely P‐impoverished habitats, supported by concomitant carboxylate exudation. These findings expand our understanding of integrated P‐acquisition mechanisms in Poaceae within nutrient‐limited ...

Dental Calculus Formation Is Linked to Diet and Phylogeny in Mammals

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
In a survey of > 1600 specimens across all mammalian orders, we found that most species present dental calculus. We found calculus production to be strongly associated with herbivory, and we provide recommendations for the use of dental calculus in collections‐based research. ABSTRACT The oral microbiome is implicated in a wide diversity of fundamental

Phytolith accumulation in broadleaf and conifer forests of northern China : implications for phytolith carbon sequestration

, 2018
Carbon (C) occlusion within phytoliths (PhytOC) has a significant potential for long-term C sequestration in forest ecosystems. To unravel the role of forest composition on phytolith production, soil phytolith distribution, and phytolith C sequestration ...

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.
