A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Floral resource strips enhance parasitoid abundance and diversity in apple orchards and promote agroecological advances in a South African biosphere reserve

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Floral resource strips within apple orchards increased parasitoid abundance and influenced community composition, enhancing local biodiversity in the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve's transition zone. Ruderal and natural fynbos habitats supported higher parasitoid richness and abundance, emphasising the importance of conserving semi‐natural habitats ...

PEP725: 15 years of driving European and global phenology science

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Phenology – the timing of seasonal biological events – is a sensitive indicator of climate change and ecosystem dynamics. Long‐term, broad‐scale phenological data are crucial for understanding and predicting plant responses to environmental change.

Haplotype‐Resolved Genome Assembly and Population Genomics Reveal Evolutionary History and Agronomic Traits of Mulberry

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mulberry is a representative economic tree species valued for both poverty alleviation and medicinal use. To advance the understanding of mulberry genomics and demography, we assembled high‐quality haploid genomes of two widely cultivated mulberry varieties NS14 and QS1, and analysed 376 accessions from 12 countries, including 39 ancient trees

Ecosystem restoration and Indigenous Peoples and local communities: Learning from protected and conserved areas

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Global interest in, and funding for, ecosystem restoration is growing in the face of ongoing ecosystem degradation. The role and inclusion of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IP&LCs) have not been given sufficient attention in ecosystem restoration. Objective The objective of this research is to apply the lessons from the

Fostering Creativity Through Educational Interventions in Higher Education: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Journal of Creative Behavior, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Creativity has gained relevance over the years in education, and especially recently due to its consideration as a transversal competency in higher education, but there is still a lack of integration of knowledge. This qualitative systematic review explores literature on educational interventions designed to enhance creativity and investigates

Integrative chromosome‐scale genome analysis of cupuassu provides insights into witches' broom disease resistance and expands genomic resources for Theobroma

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) is a fruit tree native to the Brazilian Amazon and increasingly relevant to regional bioeconomies. Its cultivation is severely affected by witches’ broom disease (WBD), caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa. While a chromosome‐scale genome of the susceptible genotype C1074 is available, the lack of a resistant ...

Root Traits Predict the Soil Functional Responses of Subtropical Plant Species to Experimental Drought

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Plant species' habitat preference and drought tolerance traits were not the primary factors driving interspecific differences in soil functional responses to drought. Instead, fine root traits—particularly their chemical traits—played more critical roles in determining these variations.
