Extreme Polyploidy Reveals Functional Trade‐Offs in Plant Drought Responses
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8697-8711, November 2026.ABSTRACT Polyploidy shapes plant physiology and anatomy, yet the extent to which different ploidy levels influence drought responses remains unclear. Here, we investigated how ploidy affects cell‐level coordination and functional traits associated with water transport and retention.

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Mistletoes, recognized as keystone species, supply diverse floral and fruit resources for birds, thereby facilitating mutualistic interactions in pollination and seed dispersal. Some avian species are “double mutualists,” engaging in both functions. However, their precise roles and effectiveness as mutualists remain inadequately understood. In

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Ongoing climate change will negatively impact tree populations unless they are able to acclimate to the changes in their local environment. Effective planning for climate adaptation management requires an understanding of the current state of local adaptation and physiological performance to assess whether populations are at risk of local ...

Ethnomedicinal Uses of Thai Legumes (Fabaceae) and Their Potential in Industrial Applications
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.Thai legumes (Fabaceae) are rich sources of bioactive phytochemicals, including saponins, flavonoids, biochanin A, and daidzein. These compounds contribute to diverse ethnomedicinal properties, including antioxidant, antiviral, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer, and cardioprotective activities.

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 5, October 2026.Weed seed contamination in vegetable seed lots poses risks to commercial seed quality and biosecurity, yet few studies have examined contamination in vegetable crops, and none have compared pre‐ and post‐cleaning levels using quantitative seed counts. We analysed 1,322 field‐dressed (FD) and machine‐dressed (MD) purity test results from four vegetable ...
