Botanical inventory of the early book herbaria of Leonhard Rauwolf from southern France and northern Italy (1560–1563)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Sixteenth‐century herbaria are the oldest plant collections that survive today and, as such, they provide valuable insights in past floras and historical botanical interactions. One of the most fascinating still extant 16th‐century herbaria is the four‐volume collection of the German physician, botanist and traveler Leonhard Rauwolf (1535 ...

Block Kinematics, Interseismic Coupling and Fault Slip Rates in the Aegean Region From GPS and Earthquake Slip Vector Data: 2. Hellenic Subduction System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Hellenic subduction system is the primary locus of Nubia‐Eurasia convergence, yet the distribution of strain accumulation along it is still debated. Here, we invert 832 geodetic velocities and 146 earthquake slip vectors to assess the spatial variability of interseismic locking and provide new constraints on the rate of slip deficit ...

Edulitin 2, a Ribotoxin‐Like Protein From Boletus edulis That Triggers Apoptosis in Colon Cancer Cells While Preserving the Integrity of the Intestinal Microbiota

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Edulitin 2 is a ribotoxin‐like protein exhibiting a potent antiproliferative activity towards Caco‐2 and HT29 cells by programmed cell death. However, edulitin 2 does not affect gut microbiota growth, despite damaging fungal ribosomes. ABSTRACT Porcini (Boletus edulis Bull.) are a reservoir of pharmacological biomolecules with health‐promoting ...

Soil Lead Risks Associated With Urbanization Histories in Springfield MA and Hartford CT, USA

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Due to legacy leaded products, soil Pb is generally higher in older urban centers triggering substantial implications for environmental equity. By integrating a gridded soil Pb analysis of about 150 samples each in two historically industrial cities (Hartford, CT and Springfield, MA) with block‐level census data, we tested the hypotheses that (

Medicine for the Material World

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 434-439, June 2026.
ABSTRACT It is clear that many of the inorganic materials of antiquity have been used both as medicines for human ills and also as agents in technological processes. This paper speculates that there might have been a stronger link between these two functions in the past, based on the concept of “active agents”—materials that are efficacious at curing ...

Catherine de' Medici and the Forest of Orleans: Queenly Participation in Early Modern French Forest Management

Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 507-531, June 2026.
Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...
