Erucastrum virgatum subsp. virgatum (Brassicaceae) Endemic to Sicily (Italy): Biological Properties and Phenolic Content of Leaf Extracts

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The present work reports a comparative study between extracts obtained by different methods (ultrasonic bath‐assisted extraction, maceration, decoction, and Soxhlet extraction) from the leaves of Erucastrum virgatum subsp. virgatum collected in Sicily (Italy), using ethanol and water as “green” solvents.

On the Limits of Alpine Plants: A Systematic Review of the Factors Behind Species' Elevational Range Limits

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.

Maternal feeding history affects the trade‐off between offspring number and size for a holobenthic octopus

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Female reproductive fitness has been clearly shown to be determined in part by a trade‐off between offspring size and number, and the corresponding performance of the offspring. The performance of offspring and corresponding reproductive fitness may vary in relation to changes in environmental conditions, such as food availability.

Preparation and Evaluation of Biodegradable Film From Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles‐Carboxymethyl Cellulose‐Gelatin Containing Salvia viridis Anthocyanin

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 84-97, March 2026.
Different percentages of ANT affected the physical and mechanical characteristics of the film. The results indicated that this produced film is a useful tool for monitoring the freshness of food products.. ABSTRACT In recent years, growing environmental concerns have promoted the use of natural and biodegradable polymers in food packaging applications.

Peach Kernel Oil Modulates Lipid Metabolism Disorder in ApoEa CRISPR/Cas9 Gene‐Disrupted Zebrafish

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
In this study, we used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to establish a lipid metabolism disorder model of ApoEa mutant zebrafish. We applied peach kernel oil to this model and studied the mechanism of peach kernel oil regulating lipid disorder in combination with transcriptomics.

Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.
