Navigating Tensions and Contradictions: The Everyday Negotiation of Militant Research
Area, Volume 58, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract This paper explores the tensions and contradictions generated when conducting militant research from within academia. More specifically, it focuses on how they play out and shape militant research on an everyday basis, and how they are constantly negotiated by militant researchers and mediated by their diverse positionalities.

Are pollination syndromes useful predictors of floral visitors in Tasmania?
, 2000 Diurnal visitors to the flowers of many native plant species were identified in a wide range of Tasmanian sclerophyllous vegetation between September 1996 and April 1997. These foraging profiles were analysed to determine whether they were characteristic

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Frugivorous birds provide crucial seed‐dispersal functions in terrestrial ecosystems. However, the impact of climate change on plant–avian frugivore interactions remains unclear due to past methodological limitations. In this study, we address this by mapping these interactions across the Americas and projecting shifts in interaction ...

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.ABSTRACT Identifying close relatives in wild animal populations is fundamental across many research fields. Genetic estimates of relatedness have expanded rapidly in recent decades, drawing on a range of genetic data types. Here, we review their use and outline opportunities for future studies by combining two complementary approaches.

Phylogenetic history shapes the composition of floral scents in a specialized pollination mutualism
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3428-3443, June 2026.Summary Most studies of the chemical ecology of plant–pollinator interactions emphasize the role of pollinator‐mediated selection in shaping floral scent composition. Nevertheless, phylogeny may constrain the metabolic pathways underlying these profiles, thereby influencing the evolutionary trajectory of the emitted signals.

Flowers through insect eyes: the contribution of pollinator vision to the evolution of flower colour
, 2010 PhDFlowers’ colours are an essential element of their ability to attract visits from pollinators. However, the colours as they appear to human observers can differ substantially from their appearance to insect pollinators, and so it is essential to ...

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3460-3474, June 2026.Summary In plants, a key example of convergence is the repeated evolution of floral traits associated with the transition from outcrossing to self‐fertilization, often resulting in the ‘selfing syndrome’ (e.g. reduced flower size and loss of scent). However, potentially overlooked changes concern the pollen coat, which plays a role in different aspects

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3777-3802, June 2026.ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (
