Soil Metabarcoding Helps Identify Recalcitrant Taxa From Chaparral Seed Banks

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Soil seed banks preserve plant diversity, but traditional germination methods often miss dormant or hard‐to‐germinate species. Our study tested metabarcoding as an alternative, finding that DNA‐based sequencing was more reliable than RNA and that water treatments influenced sequencing results.

Seed fossil record of Solanaceae revisited

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract The fossil record for Solanaceae has a complex taxonomic history, with many species originally described in the family being subsequently shown to belong in other plant families. In this work, we present an in‐depth analysis of the nightshade seed fossil record, which corresponds to the largest amount of fossil material for the family.

New Anthracenone and Xanthenones From Tricholaena teneriffae With Antioxidant Activity: In Vitro and In Silico Studies

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
Three novel phenolic compounds and one known benzoxanthenone are isolated from Tricholaena teneriffae. Compounds (1–3) demonstrate potent antioxidant activity, comparable to that of vitamin C, while compound (4) exhibits negligible activity. Docking studies are employed to validate the binding of the compounds to lipoxygenase‐3, providing evidence of ...

Uncovering biodiversity deficits: Experimental evidence for dispersal limitation of woody species in Mediterranean forest patches

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
We experimentally introduced seeds of woody species into Mediterranean forest patches to test whether species’ absences reflected dispersal limitation or habitat unsuitability. Similar establishment rates showed that unoccupied patches are suitable for establishment but experience limited seed arrival, uncovering diversity deficits that can be restored

Molecular Docking Studies and In Vitro Activity of Paliurus spina-christi Mill Extracts as Pancreatic Lipase Inhibitors

Antioxidants
Obesity is a risk factor for the onset of chronic diseases. One of the most promising approaches to treating obesity consists of reducing dietary fat absorption using extracts from plants because they contain phenolic compounds, especially flavonoids ...

Rare Earth Elements in Plants of the Peak Range Volcanics (Queensland), Australia Exploration Target: A Biogeochemical Prospecting Tool

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
The Peak Range Volcanics in central Queensland, Australia is naturally enriched with REEs (Rare Earth Elements). Fieldwork was conducted to analyse REEs in plant species occurring in this area. ABSTRACT Rare Earth Elements (REEs) are critical for high‐tech technologies in the green energy transition.
