Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.In low‐latitude mountains, we found insectivorous bird communities switched from breeding before to after the dry season at a threshold in dry‐season insects. Localized breeding season reversal of insectivores across wet‐to‐dry gradients magnified short‐term effects of drought and contrasted with the seasonal stability of nectar‐fruit consumers.

Genomewide prediction to target russet formation in apple
Fruit ResearchRusset formation in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a superficial skin disorder that detracts from fruit appearance and is likely controlled by many small-effect quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Genomewide prediction has been reported to be an effective
