Clathrin‐Mediated Endocytosis in Plants: Historical to Modern Advances

open access: yesTraffic, Volume 27, Issue 2, June 2026.
Ultrastructural studies by Bonnett and Newcomb in 1966 revealed the existence of coated vesicles budding from the plant cell plasma membrane. This review introduces this discovery and early questions regarding the biological significance of CME in plants highlighting advances in our understanding of the plant CME molecular machinery along with current ...

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.

Differential Phoretic Vector Use Among Sympatric Caenorhabditis Nematodes and an Association With Invasive Nitidulid Beetles in Southwestern Germany

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We show evidence for differential host use among the three sympatric Caenorhabditis, and a novel association with nitidulid beetles for C. apta sp. n. This information adds to our understanding of host invertebrate use across the Caenorhabditis phylogeny, highlighting potential evolutionary transitions in host use in need of further study.

Gain Curves, Reproductive Efficiency, and Sex Allocation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Exploring the concept of reproductive efficiency reveals several shortcomings in fitness gain curves and the Shaw‐Mohler equation for sex ratio evolution. Gain curves that refer to the gamete inputs to mating interactions make no statement about the production of gametes.

Testing the Adaptive Significance of Personate Flowers in Penstemon (Plantaginaceae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Floral diversity across plant lineages reflects evolutionary shifts in mating strategy and pollinator specificity. The genus Penstemon contains a handful of species that display personate flowers—a peculiar bee‐pollinated floral type characterized by an upward bulge in the ventral portion of the corolla tube that obstructs the floral opening.

Fine‐Scale Temporal Dynamics of the Honey Bee Hive Microbiome and Foraging Revealed by Airborne eDNA

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Airborne eDNA collected within honey bee hives reveals diverse plant and microbial communities. While richness remains stable, seasonal shifts in plant and microbiome composition highlight dynamic resource use, demonstrating eDNA's potential for non‐invasive, fine‐scale monitoring of foraging and colony health. ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) has the

Comparative Phytochemical and Fatty Acid Profiling of Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) Cultivars Across Diverse Geographic Origins

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 128, Issue 5, May 2026.
Flax varieties differ in growth, oil quality, and beneficial compounds, but these differences are not always clear‐cut. In this study, 10 flax types were grown under the same conditions and compared for plant traits, natural compounds, and oil content. Some showed high omega‐3 and lignan levels, making them valuable for healthier foods and future crop ...

Reinstatement of the name Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. (Lamiaceae) supported by micromorphological and molecular data

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
In 2019, A. J. Paton et al. proposed a new taxonomic combination, transferring Anisochilus carnosus (L.f.) Wall. ex Benth. to Coleus strobilifer (Benth.) A.J.Paton, and including Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. within this broader circumscription.

Wheat breeding approaches for designing wheat to thrive in a warmer world

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 754-763, May 2026.
Wheat is a vital food crop, accounting for approximately 20% of daily calories and protein consumed worldwide. However, modern‐day wheat is under pressure from global change. The improvement rate of wheat yields is not keeping up with the demand of our growing population. Furthermore, abiotic and biotic stressors are becoming more prevalent. This paper
