A pan‐European citizen science study shows population size, climate and land use are related to biased morph ratios in the heterostylous plant Primula veris

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
A large‐scale citizen science study involving thousands of cowslip (Primula veris) observations from all over Europe revealed an unexpected prevalence of S‐morphs over L‐morphs, which was influenced by climatic as well as land use factors. Furthermore, general morph ratios were often unbalanced with the strongest shifts occurring in smaller populations.

Phenotypic plasticity masks evolutionary change in grassland plant traits in response to land use abandonment

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
Populations of a common grass, Briza media, responded to long‐term grazing cessation with phenotypic plasticity in traits that enhanced competitive ability for light, but with heritable trait shifts towards increased tissue protection and reduced trait diversity.

Climate Change Is Expected to Expand Malaria Transmission Range and Population at Risk in Papua New Guinea

GeoHealth, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Warming temperatures are expanding the potential for malaria transmission into higher altitudes, with important implications for malaria control planning. In Papua New Guinea (PNG), malaria is widespread in lowland areas but rarely transmitted above 1,600 m.

“Please list your favourite …”: How to measure online plant knowledge as a component of plant awareness

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 1137-1148, July 2025.
Plant awareness disparity is a widespread phenomenon in modern societies. It erroneously implies that plants are not necessary for humans. Understanding what plants people know and can describe is crucial for evaluating one of four central aspects of plant awareness disparity.

ATF3 Within the Interferon Signaling Pathway: A Potential Biomarker for Predicting Pathological Response to Neoadjuvant Chemoimmunotherapy

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 16, Issue 7, April 2025.
We analyzed transcriptomic data from the GEO database of 24 nonsmall‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases treated with neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy, established a NeoIGS signature and ATF3 as predictive biomarkers of major pathological remission, and validated ATF3 in a clinically independent cohort by immunohistochemistry.

Traditional Arabic & Islamic Medicine (TAIM): Principles of Dietary Practices and the TAIM Food Pyramid

Global Journal of Health Science
Middle Eastern and Mediterranean culinary tradition and dietary practices are used interchangeably due to geographical proximity and similarities in their cuisine. While these regions share historical impact and cultural exchanges there are differences that delineate each region’s dietary influences.

A Data‐Driven Solution for Large‐Scale Open‐Pit Mines Excavation Monitoring Based on 3D Point Cloud

IET Image Processing, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This article proposes an adaptive, data‐driven method for real‐time excavation monitoring in open‐pit mining using 3D point cloud data. The method autonomously optimizes critical parameters, eliminating manual tuning, and achieves robust volumetric estimation with errors consistently below 2%, even under challenging environmental conditions ...

Fisher perceptions of catch and trade of sharks and rays in Angolan small‐scale fisheries

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Small‐scale fisheries ensure food security and employment in Angolan coastal communities. These dynamic, widespread fisheries remain mostly unregulated, with limited data available despite their likely significant impact on marine megafauna. We used an interview‐based survey to investigate local fisher interactions with elasmobranchs (sharks ...

Regulatory mechanism of circular RNAs in neurodegenerative diseases

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2024.
CircRNAs influence neurodegenerative pathologies mainly by affecting the abnormal deposition of proteins in neurodegenerative diseases. Abstract Background Neurodegenerative disease is a collective term for a category of diseases that are caused by neuronal dysfunction, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral
