The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Integrated Soil Salinisation Management Strategies in Agriculture
Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.This review synthesises integrated water, agronomic, and biochemical strategies for managing soil salinisation, presenting a decision framework for selecting cost‐effective amendments based on initial soil assessment and long‐term sustainability monitoring. ABSTRACT Soil salinisation poses a global threat to agricultural sustainability, affecting about

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Windthrow is a significant disturbance in many forests globally during which strong winds damage trees or other large flora, yet its role in arid ecosystems remains largely understudied. The saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea), a keystone species of the Sonoran Desert, is a long‐lived, massive succulent whose demography is primarily thought to

Population dynamics, survival, and movements of Texas tortoises in a national park in southern Texas
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.Texas tortoise abundance in a small national park in South Texas, USA, declined by >25%, from an estimated 273 tortoises in 2014 to 204 tortoises in 2024. The severity of the decline varied across survey units, but abundance remained highest in areas having greater canopy cover and experiencing less invasion by Guinea grass.

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT A morphology‐based MP analysis is undertaken to test the monophyly of the lined flat bark beetle genus Metaxyphloeus Thomas, 1984, as well as to hypothesize its intra‐ and intergeneric evolutionary relationships. Based on the results of the present work, Metaxyphloeus, as currently composed, is hypothesized as a monophyletic assemblage of ...
