Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Pan-Genome-Based Characterization of the PYL Transcription Factor Family in Populus

Plants
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a key phytohormone involved in regulating plant growth and responses to environmental stress. As receptors of ABA, pyrabactin resistance 1 (PYR)/PYR1-like (PYL) proteins play a central role in initiating ABA signal transduction. In

Climate and Land‐Use Change May Reshape the Biogeography of Freshwater Crabs Across China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We employed ensemble species distribution models to investigate how climate and land‐use change will impact habitat suitability for two freshwater crab families (Potamidae and Sesarmidae) across China. Temperature emerged as the dominant driver, with cropland and urban land having strong, family‐specific effects on suitability. Future scenarios predict

Genome-Wide Identification of DNA Methyltransferase and Demethylase in Populus sect. Turanga and Their Potential Roles in Heteromorphic Leaf Development in Populus euphratica

Plants
DNA methylation, mediated by DNA methyltransferases (DMTs) and demethylases (DMLs), is an important epigenetic modification that maintains genomic stability and regulates gene expression in plant growth, development, and stress responses.

Interior Rifting Coupled With Peripheral Subduction in the Rodinia Supercontinent: New Insights From the Tarim Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract After assembly, supercontinents are shaped by internal rifting and peripheral subduction. However, the geodynamic relationship between these two processes and their respective contributions to supercontinent breakup remain poorly understood.

Two new strains of Streptomyces with metabolic potential for biological control of pear black spot disease

BMC Microbiology
Background Pear black spot is caused by Alternaria tenuissima. It is one of the diseases of concern limiting pear production worldwide. Existing cultivation methods and fungicides are not sufficient to control early blight.
