A revision of the genus Armeria (Plumbaginaceae) in peninsular Italy and Sicily through an integrative taxonomic approach

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The genus Armeria in peninsular Italy has been affected by taxonomic ambiguity for more than a century due to high morphological variability. We present a comprehensive revision of peninsular Italian and Sicilian Armeria species, using an integrated taxonomic approach that combines molecular phylogeny, plant and seed morphometrics, and ...

Reorganization without disruption: How fire‐driven spatiotemporal changes in floral resource landscapes influence plant–bee interaction networks

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Contrary to fire suppression policies that promote ecological homogenization, we suggest that patchy prescribed fires could be used to enhance spatiotemporal diversity in the Cerrado by promoting fine‐scale heterogeneity in floral resources and resource‐mediated plant–bee interactions.

Direct and indirect effects of elevated CO2, warming and drought on plant–consumer interactions of Plantago lanceolata

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Experimental treatments of warming, elevated CO2, drought and their interactions had direct and indirect (plant‐trait‐mediated) effects on field Plantago lanceolata consumption and feeding preferences of the locust Locusta migratoria. The effects largely differed between consumption types, despite being studied on the same species in the same system ...

The loss of an Indigenous‐maintained She‐Oak woodland in southeast Australia

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A 2600‐year multi‐proxy palaeoecological record (pollen, charcoal, and sediment) from Balfour Swamp, east Gippsland, reveals the persistence of an open, grassy She‐Oak woodland maintained by GunaiKurnai. This vegetation community, resilient to climatic variability and fire, was lost following the disruption of Aboriginal land management and replaced by

Inferring alternative ecosystem states with field survey data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2256-2276, August 2026.
Abstract Many ecosystems potentially exhibit alternative stable states, where distinct states can coexist under identical environmental conditions. While simulation models have generated key hypotheses in alternative stable states theory, they often rely on scale‐free parameters disconnected from real ecosystems.

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

Allergy, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 2675-2712, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Measuring maternal line selection driven by differential survival in ex situ collections for plant conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Ex situ plant collections may be increasingly needed to protect representative samples of threatened or rare species and provide plant material for conservation translocation. A primary problem in these ex situ collections is loss of intraspecific variation due to plant death. Different management actions would be required depending on whether
