Teaching Queer Visual Metaphors: Clothing, Queer Literacies, and Picture Books

open access: yesThe Reading Teacher, Volume 80, Issue 4, January/February 2027.
ABSTRACT Queer picture books disrupt binary notions of gender by making visible and validating alternative gendered ways of being, often using visual metaphors, such as clothing, to introduce ideas of gender nonconformity. Productive reading of queer picture books therefore requires attention to how children move from literal to inferential to ...

How the Threat of Knowledge Loss Drives Firms’ R&D Dynamism: A Threat Rigidity Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 7, Page 4284-4321, November 2026.

It further argues that the dampening of R&D dynamism is greater for firms more vulnerable to the threat of knowledge loss due to facing greater product market

Population genomics of heterosporous lycophytes: allopatric speciation and historical persistence through paleoclimatic fluctuations

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 128, Issue 3, November 2026.
SUMMARY Speciation is the fundamental process driving the origin of earth biodiversity. While speciation mechanisms have been revealed in many plant taxa, the evolutionary dynamics of heterosporous lycophytes remain largely unexplored. Here, we used the Selaginella sanguinolenta group, comprising seven montane species in eastern Asia, as a model system.
