How Epiphytic Are Epiphytes? Field Evidence for Flexible Substrate Use in Tropical Cloud Forest Plants

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
In the field, 63% of the species grew exclusively epiphytically, while 37% also grew terrestrially. Literature‐derived epiphytic values consistently overestimated substrate fidelity relative to field observations, particularly single‐source classifications, with mean absolute differences of up to 32%.

What the Dying are Saying to the Living: Mixed Conspecific Alarm Cues Reverse Competitive Hierarchies by Reshaping Genotype‐Specific Life Histories

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study demonstrates that the complexity of intraspecific alarm cues—specifically, whether they are from a single genetic source or a mixture—acts as a critical environmental filter. While genotype‐specific cues trigger a canonical adaptive “life‐history switch,” mixed cues induce a state of chronic stress, leading to genotype‐specific reprogramming

Resilience or reassembly: Wildfire–vegetation dynamics in rapidly warming subarctic forests of northwestern Canada

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Climate‐induced shifts in disturbance regimes are reshaping northern forest ecosystems, where tree species are at their geographic range limit. Northern Canada has warmed over twice as much as the mean global increase since 1950, providing a critical context to study climate–fire–vegetation interactions under rapid warming.

Stem Cells in Asexual Reproduction of Marine Invertebrates

, 2009
While sexual reproduction is conserved and almost ubiquitous, asexual reproduction in forms of parthenogenesis or agametic cloning from somatic tissue is less conserved.

Defense–competition trade‐offs shape prey eco‐evolutionary dynamics across environmental gradients

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Predators can affect ecological communities not only through direct consumption but also by indirectly triggering costly defensive responses in prey that cascade through food webs. Understanding how prey navigate the competing demands of predation pressure and resource exploitation is thus central to predicting ecological (i.e., persistence ...

Rethinking Plasticity in Sponges

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 6, Page 431-446, September 2026.
This systematic review critiques the conceptual confusion caused by the indiscriminate use of “plasticity” in Porifera literature, revealing that researchers often overlook genetic variability and fail to distinguish between real‐time environmental responses and natural selection.
