Hermit beetle (Osmoderma barnabita) habitat selection and movement are shaped by tree microhabitat availability in Eastern Romanian Carpathians

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We conducted the first radio‐tracking study on Osmoderma barnabita to examine the movement ecology and habitat selection in the Eastern Carpathians. A female recorded the longest movement distance and had larger home ranges than males. It showed a preference for Quercus petraea, with wood mould cavities and DBH as key predictors.

Revegetation seeding provides broad‐scale efficacy to inhibit the growth of Rhamnus cathartica seedlings across Minnesota, United States

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Removal of Common buckthorn (Rhanmus cathartica) can leave legacies that promote rapid reestablishment of managed populations. By sowing native plant seeds into management areas, managed communities can exert greater biotic resistance against reestablishing invasive plants.

Variation in Climate Shapes Seedling Recruitment Along Resource Gradients in a Northern Hardwood Forest

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Seedling counts over 26 years revealed that wetter‐site temperate tree species struggle to recruit in warmer, drier years, whereas drier‐site species are more climate‐tolerant. Shadier forests buffered seedlings from heat and drought. Local soils and canopy cover strongly shaped outcomes, revealing considerable differences among species in climate ...

“Flames Over Persepolis”: New Scientific Evidence Supporting Historical Perspectives

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 421-433, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the burning of Persepolis Terrace, historically attributed to Alexander III in 330 bce. A review of classical accounts and excavation reports, combined with diagnostic surveys, confirms the fire's historicity and provides novel insights.

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2778-2813, June 2026.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Sample Preparation and Separation of Lignans by Liquid Chromatography

Journal of Separation Science, Volume 49, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lignans are important phytochemicals found mostly in the resins of coniferous trees, but are also introduced into human diets through foods such as sesame seeds and extra‐virgin olive oil. They are pharmacologically interesting mainly because of their antioxidant activities, and they have also been shown to have cytotoxic and antimicrobial ...

Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4089-4103, May 2026.
Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...
