Variation in seed abundance predicts yolk fatty acid composition in a wild population of birds

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
Bird embryos develop inside eggs, which contain maternal substances that can shape offspring phenotype and fitness. Yolk fatty acids are a key energy source for the developing embryo, with omega‐6 (ω‐6) and omega‐3 (ω‐3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) obtained exclusively from the diet.

Veronica paczoskiana is no more than a pine forest ecotype of V. spicata that evolved independently in forest‐steppes of Ukraine and the Altai region

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
The Eurasian steppe area has been a dynamic vegetation biome during the Pleistocene with its repeated cycles of forest advances and retreats. Such a scenario allows the evolution of ecotypes at the ecotone with the potential for parallel evolution in different parts of the distribution area.

Characterization and Identification of Pulsatilla koreana and Pulsatilla tongkangensis Seedlings Based on Morphology, Colorimetric Data, and Molecular Markers

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Pulsatilla tongkangensis, an endemic species growing in the limited areas in Korea, is considered endangered species, and is growing in sympatric with P. koreana enabling natural hybridization. To characterize the true to the type of P. tongkangensis, we integrated morphological traits and molecular analyses of the nuclear ribosomal ITS (nrITS) and the

The effect of light availability and spatio‐temporal heterogeneity on the soil seed bank diversity in temperate forests

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
Light is a key driver of understory plant diversity, also important for seed germination, yet its effect on forests soil seed bank diversity remains underexplored. This study assessed the impact of both light availability and spatio‐temporal heterogeneity on soil seed bank diversity.
