American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract Premise Polyploidy is key to plant evolution by contributing to speciation, diversification, and adaptability. However, the minority cytotype exclusion effect can limit the persistence of polyploids, which can be mitigated by reproductive barriers such as distinct insect visitation between cytotypes. In eastern Spain, the diploid C.

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2496-2508, September 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flower temperature impacts pollinator choice in laboratory settings and the foraging behaviour of bees in natural populations. However, the direct effects of floral temperature on animal pollination in field conditions are difficult to isolate from other pollinator ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.In this study we investigated the macroinvertebrate (MI) communities in two newly created, man‐made ponds concurrently with the diet of captive‐bred European pond turtles that were translocated there. We aimed at assessing whether turtles were operating as generalist feeders, and if successive reintroductions of turtles would affect the overall MI ...

Ecohydrology, Volume 18, Issue 5, July‐August 2025.ABSTRACT Mountain streams exhibit hydrogeomorphological heterogeneity, which is further intensified by the presence of hydraulic infrastructure. Despite extensive research on the influence of hydrological conditions and flow regulation on ecology, there is a notable absence of holistic studies investigating stream dynamics from both geomorphologic and ...
