Soil Seed Bank Holds Some Potential for Natural Regeneration in a Semi‐Arid Rangeland

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural regeneration of degraded lands can be facilitated by the recruitment of plant species from the soil seed bank. However, the composition of soil seed banks in arid Australia has seldom been studied. We addressed this knowledge gap by quantifying the soil seed bank of chenopod shrubland and remnant Acacia aneura (mulga) stands in an ex ...

Bringing artifacts (back) to life

open access: yesAmerican Ethnologist, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 268-282, August 2026.

Drawing on debates in the anthropology of objects and political ontology, I develop this perspective through long‐

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 831-841, August 2026.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Effects of Extrusion Conditions and Oil Addition on the Characteristics of Cheese‐Flavored Corn Snacks and Food Bolus Formation and Properties

open access: yesJournal of Texture Studies, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
The independent variables influenced the oral processing of corn snacks, and temporality had a low importance in characterizing them. The sunflower oil content had little impact on their sensory profile, suggesting that low sunflower oil content may be sensorially acceptable, contributing to improved nutritional value of corn snacks.
