Conserving Large Old Trees in Guangxi, South China: Diversity, Distribution, and Preservation Strategies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study comprehensively analyzes the diversity and distribution of over 500 year old large old trees (LOTs) in Guangxi, China, identifying 2630 LOTs from 149 species with a notable latitudinal gradient in richness. Tree vitality was found to be highest in rural and natural habitats like villages and scenic spots, compared to residential areas.

Taxonomic, Phylogenetic and Functional Diversity Behave Differently Under Disturbance Pressure and Complex Land‐Use History: Assembly Rules in Grassland Communities

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Grasslands in the Alps are undergoing land‐use change triggering ecological succession and affecting community composition. Taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional diversity are used as complementary information to infer on community assembly processes, supporting conservation practices.

Complete Genome Sequence of Pseudoxanthomonas taiwanensis AL17 and its Potential Genes

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
Several reports on genome sequencing using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) to identify the total genome were extensively carried out; however, genome identification on thermophilic microorganisms is still limited.

Extreme environments in a world of new extremes

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Extreme environments, whether defined by climate, soils, or disturbance, at landscape or micro‐scales, are prevalent across Earth's surface and have long served as crucibles for ecological and evolutionary insights. Many foundational theories were developed in deserts, cliffs, ultramafic soils, and other harsh systems.

Rigidity and flexibility of biological networks

, 2012
The network approach became a widely used tool to understand the behaviour of complex systems in the last decade. We start from a short description of structural rigidity theory.

Comparing the Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) with the present interglacial period (MIS 1) using a multidimensional functional diversity analysis: The marine molluscs from Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago, central Atlantic) as a case study

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 333-360, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine fossil records hold outstanding importance for ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical studies. Santa Maria Island in the Azores Archipelago (central Atlantic) features a remarkable marine fossil record spanning from the Pliocene to recent times.

Microbial Diversity Across Chemolithotrophic and Phototrophic Biofilms in Cold Sulfur Springs

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
Distinct microbial communities occur between adjacent sulfur‐rich and freshwater springs. Chemolithotrophic and phototrophic sulfur‐oxidizing taxa were enriched in cold sulfur spring biofilms, while adjacent freshwater biofilms supported more diverse microbial community composition.

Effects of composting manures and other organic wastes on soil processes and pest and disease interactions [PDF]

, 2003
Introduction Composts and manures are of major importance in providing fertility in organic farming systems, since synthetic fertilisers are prohibited. It is understood that composts have radically different nutrient release characteristics to those of
