The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1003-1035, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

The resistance of rose cultivars to crown gall disease caused by different strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Phytopathology, 2000
In vitroで継代培養している切りバラおよび台木9品種のシュートを用い,in vitro検定法で4系統のA. temufaciensを接種し,各品種の抵抗性について比較検討を行った.R. canina, R. canina ‘Pfander’の平均発病率は61%, 85%と高く,‘Lifirane’と‘PEKcougel’では17%以下と低かった.供試病原菌ではGOU1の発病率は供試9品種中の6品種で73%∼90%と高く,A208, G-Ag-27, C58clrif-RではR. canina ‘Pfander’において高く,それ以外では低かった.‘Dukat’, R.

Unexpected Evolutionary Divergence of Tachykinin‐Positive Neurons Innervating the Central Complex in Hexapods

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 3, March 2026.
The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.

The McKinleys of Punch: Politics and the Press in Melbourne, 1870s to 1920s

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Politics &History, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 35-68, March 2026.
This article re‐examines the Melbourne Punch (1855–1925; known simply as Punch from 1900) as a political weapon in the cut‐and‐thrust of Victorian, local, and national politics, in the hands of its longest‐serving, but least‐known proprietor, Alexander McKinley (1848–1927).

Causes and consequences of bacterial local adaptation via MGEs in the plant microbiome

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2215-2223, March 2026.
Summary Adaptations that enable plant‐associated bacteria to fill disparate niches comprise a critical component of microbial diversity. Genes that confer locally adaptive bacterial traits, ranging from heavy metal resistance to pathogen or symbiont infectivity, often reside within mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that can move between genomes.

Pathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis exploits the lateral root regulators to induce pluripotency in maize shoots

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2974-2985, March 2026.
Summary Biotrophic plant–pathogens secrete effector molecules to redirect and exploit endogenous signaling and developmental pathways in their favor. The biotrophic fungus Ustilago maydis causes galls on all aerial parts of maize. However, the responsible gall‐inducing effectors and corresponding plant signaling pathway(s) remain largely unknown.

The tasiR‐ARF pathway in plants: origin, functions, and interplay of miR‐390, tasiRNAs and ARF3

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 328-344, March 2026.
Trans‐acting small interfering RNAs that silence a subset of Auxin Response Factors are crucial for plant growth, developmental timing, proper organ patterning, and coping with stress. Abstract Trans‐acting small interfering RNA (tasiRNAs) are a special type of endogenous small RNAs (sRNAs) found only in plants.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Geranium sylvaticum*

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
Geranium sylvaticum is a perennial forb of upland grasslands, woodlands and riverbanks in northern Britain, with scattered native occurrences also in Wales, central England and Northern Ireland. It has an extensive native range in Europe and Asia. The species is gynodioecious, with individual plants typically female or hermaphrodite.

Examining the Doctrine of Discovery in Religion and Indigenous Studies

open access: yesReligion Compass, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the publication of Pagans in the Promised Land by Steven T. Newcomb (Shawnee/Lenape), scholarship on the Doctrine of Discovery has expanded significantly as a central issue in Indigenous law and politics. However, its implications remain underexamined in Religious Studies, Indigenous Studies, and legal scholarship.

Blocking of Attachment to Cell Wall as a Resistance Response to Crown Gall Bacteria Agrobacterium tumefaciens by Roses

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society for Horticultural Science, 2005
バラ根頭がんしゅ病抵抗性の発現機構を明らかにするために, Agrobacterium tumefaciensの植物細胞壁への付着に着目し, バラの抵抗性の高低と菌の付着との関係について走査型電子顕微鏡を用いて比較検討した. 無接種区において抵抗性が高い‘PEKcougel’および‘Lifirane’では顆粒物質が多量に分泌され, 植物細胞壁表面が覆われていたのに対して, 抵抗性が低い‘Dukat’, Rosa multiflora‘Matsushima No. 3’およびRosa canina‘Pfander’では顆粒物質の分泌が少なく, 細胞壁表面が露出していた.
