Sources of variation in plant chemical diversity: Lessons from Malagasy Ficus
American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract Premise Plants produce a tremendous variety of secondary compounds that are crucial to interspecific and intraspecific interactions and for adaptation to environmental changes. This chemical diversity has been attributed to multiple factors, including interactions with herbivores or pollinators, tissue‐specific needs, and evolutionary ...

Late 21st‐Century Climate and Land Use Driven Loss of Plant Diversity in African Mountains
Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 9, September 2025.By the end of this century, many African mountain plants may lose large parts of their suitable habitats as the climate warms and land use changes. Even under a sustainable pathway limiting warming to under 2°C, nearly half of the 607 studied species are projected to contract their ranges, with losses even greater under higher emission scenarios ...

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 6, August 2025.ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.
