Lessons from an eradication under multiple constraints of an island rat population of record density
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Invasive rats threaten island biodiversity, disrupting ecosystems and endangering native species. Although rat eradication has succeeded on many islands, tropical islands present unique management challenges. Strict regulations and financial constraints on some tropical islands further limit proven eradication methods, complicating rodent ...

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Mediterranean peninsulas typically harbour high intraspecific genetic diversity associated with long‐term persistence in multiple glacial refugia. However, some widespread taxa show unexpectedly shallow phylogeographic structure. Here, we investigate which historical processes can generate a pattern of strong genetic depletion within a ...

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Mycotoxins (mould toxins) are secondary metabolites of moulds. They are natural toxins whose occurrence in food and feed is undesirable but cannot be completely avoided. Mycotoxins may occur as contaminants in plant products and raw materials such as grains, nuts and almonds if they are infested with mould during cultivation, storage or ...

Island‐restricted reptiles are more threatened but less studied than their mainland counterparts
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.Reptiles are highly diverse on islands, yet there is no comprehensive overview of island‐restricted reptiles (IRRs) regarding their distribution, threat status, and research efforts. Our assessment revealed that despite IRRs comprising nearly a quarter of global reptile species and 30.8% being threatened, only 7.2% of the literature focuses on them ...

Mechanosensing in Dendritic Cells
Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Since their discovery, dendritic cells have been recognized for their unusual capacity to sense and respond to physical stimuli within their environment. However, it took nearly two decades—and the advent of mechanobiology—to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and functional implications of this mechanical hypersensitivity. In this review, we
