Species‐habitat networks reveal key habitats for landscape‐level wild bee conservation

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract Most agricultural landscapes are composed of a variety of habitats. A landscape perspective is needed to understand biodiversity decline, but many studies focus on single habitat types. In addition, the use of local resources by species within and across habitats implies that species and their habitats are linked in species‐habitat networks ...

Unveiling the Patterns of Wild Bee‐Plant Interactions on a Large and Mostly Unexplored Mediterranean Island (Sardinia, Italy)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
An extensive survey of wild bee and bee–plant networks in Sardinia (Italy) highlights high species richness and diversity, particularly in mainland agroecosystems. All interaction networks were highly specialized, modular, and not nested, indicating potential ecological vulnerability, though varying across sites and on a temporal scale.

Potential of Agricultural Plantations and Orchards to Support Understory Forest Bird Diversity in Southeast Asia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study assessed the potential of monoculture oil palm and rubber tree plantations, as well as polyculture orchards, to support understory bird diversity compared to forest reserves using mist‐netting. Orchards recorded the highest bird abundance and richness among agricultural lands, but all agricultural lands had less than half the understory bird

Evaluating cultivars for pollinator gardens

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Pollinator gardening is a rapidly growing community‐based conservation movement, yet evidence‐based guidelines for practice are largely missing. In particular, it is unclear whether cultivars of flowering plants (i.e., horticultural varieties)‐can support pollinators as effectively as their wild‐type counterparts.

Pollinators maintain biodiversity in assembling plant communities

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Most angiosperms are animal‐pollinated, and animal pollination increases fitness in many plant species. Although it is less well‐studied than other factors, plant biodiversity may be maintained by pollinators and the associated seedling recruitment that occurs after fertilization. We experimentally applied three levels of pollinator visitation

ProteinMCP: An agentic AI framework for autonomous protein engineering

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Computational protein design is often constrained by slow, complex, inaccessible, and highly sophisticated and expert‐dependent workflows that hinder its transferrability and generalization power for broader applications. We present ProteinMCP, an agentic AI framework designed to accelerate and democratize protein engineering.
