Variation in pollen limitation among reproductive modules points to likely resource reallocation in the alpine plant Veratrum grandiflorum

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Pollen limitation, a decrease in seed production due to insufficient pollen receipt, may influence plant demography and the evolution of sexual systems. Its empirical estimation of pollen supplementation of some of the flowers on an individual is well known to be prone to overestimation due to potential resource reallocation among the individual's ...

Adaptive floral traits that impact stigma pollen load and seed production in Penstemon digitalis (Plantaginaceae)

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Penstemon digitalis is an early spring‐flowering species of the northwest Missouri prairie community, a period often characterized by low and unpredictable bee visitation. We conducted an experimental field study to evaluate how pollinator‐mediated pollen transfer and floral longevity interact to influence pollen acquisition and seed production.

Is Self‐Pollination Sufficient to Maximise Seed Set and Fruit Quality in Kiwifruit Hermaphrodites?

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether supplementary pollination of each of two hermaphrodite kiwifruit selections was likely to produce any significant improvement in seed set or fruit quality, compared with self‐pollination alone. Three main pollination treatments were applied to floral shoots: self‐pollination alone and self‐pollination ...

Perceptions of Obesity and Treatment Decision‐Making Among Hispanic‐Latino Adults: Barriers to Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery

open access: yesObesity Science &Practice, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (MBS) is underutilized among Hispanic‐Latino adults despite higher obesity rates and related comorbidities. Although barriers such as cost, language, and limited provider referrals are documented, sociocultural and psychological perceptions about obesity and obesity care remain less understood.

When Is an Audit “Good Enough”? Professional Ambiguity and Strategic Sensemaking During an Audit Oversight Inspection Quand un audit est‐il « assez réussi » ? Ambiguïté professionnelle et construction stratégique de sens lors d'une surveillance des audits

open access: yesContemporary Accounting Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 1008-1033, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper draws on the social control and sensemaking literatures to study how a Big 4 audit firm in the Netherlands sought to contest the national oversight body's inspection findings on one of its audit engagements. Our case study leads us to develop the concept of professional ambiguity to capture the multiple, coexisting meanings and ...
