Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.The study identified 41 priority conservation grids and 8 critical conservation gaps not covered by national reserves for medicinal gymnosperms. We proposed a practical, multi‐dimensional framework for their conservation. ABSTRACT To elucidate the geographical distribution patterns and hotspots of medicinal gymnosperms in China, providing a scientific ...

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Decades of forest management in the boreal biome have involved digging drainage ditches and modifying streams to increase timber production, altering terrestrial ecosystems and expanding stream networks. Modified waterways and drainage ditches represent widespread novel aquatic and riparian ecosystems, with little known about their ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 575-586, May 2026.ABSTRACT The second half of the Allerød interstadial in the Netherlands is characterised by pine forest. Excavated trunks of 165 pine trees at Leusden‐Den Treek in the central Netherlands (LETR16) were dated by dendrochronology and radiocarbon. Two chronologically separated pine forest phases occurred during relatively warm periods as recorded in ...

Sample Preparation and Separation of Lignans by Liquid Chromatography
Journal of Separation Science, Volume 49, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Lignans are important phytochemicals found mostly in the resins of coniferous trees, but are also introduced into human diets through foods such as sesame seeds and extra‐virgin olive oil. They are pharmacologically interesting mainly because of their antioxidant activities, and they have also been shown to have cytotoxic and antimicrobial ...

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Tree species diversity is known to affect tree growth and leaf traits, which in turn can influence various ecosystem processes. However, the reported direction of these tree diversity effects is inconsistent, indicating that their outcomes depend strongly on ecological context.

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1327-1338, May 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological traits such as behaviour, physiology and morphology mediate an organism's interaction with its environment, and understanding their joint contribution to reproductive fitness is essential for predicting biological responses to global change.

Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework
Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.
