Temporal niche partitioning by nocturnal arboreal mammals increases the modularity of plant–frugivore networks in a fragmented subtropical landscape

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 463-475, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animal‐mediated seed dispersal sustains plant diversity and ecosystem functioning, particularly in fragmented landscapes. However, the specific contributions of nocturnal frugivores, particularly in above‐ground (arboreal) strata, are often overlooked, leading to ...

Evaluating potential altered harvest and predator management strategies to increase white‐tailed deer population growth in the Southeastern United States

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 1, January 2026.
In some portions of the southeastern United States where white‐tailed deer populations are declining, alteration of adult female harvest levels and the availability of alternative foods for coyotes can help increase population growth. Abstract White‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) populations in the southeastern United States have declined from ...

Synthesis and Properties of a Lacquer Wax-Based Quarternary Ammonium Gemini Surfactant

Molecules, 2014
Lacquer wax is an important fatty resource obtained from the mesocarp of the berries of Toxicodendron vernicifluum. In order to expand the applications of lacquer wax, we hydrolyzed it after establishing the best conditions for the acid-catalyzed ...

Combined volunteer and ecological network observations show broad‐scale temperature‐sensitivity patterns for deciduous plant flowering and leaf‐out times across the eastern USA

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
Phenological ‘big data’ encompassing over 100 species across the eastern USA show that leaf‐out and flowering occur earlier with warmer temperatures and that native species and individuals at high latitudes tend to have weaker temperature sensitivities than introduced species and more southern plants; these findings suggest adaptations within and ...

Measurement of Ungulate Palatability and Browsing Pressure on Japanese Flora

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Estimation of palatability and browsing pressure are key techniques for ecosystem management. We compared four methods to estimate palatability based on browsing scar survey and proposed the reference palatability values for the Japanese flora as plant ecological trait.

Green‐Synthesised Nanoconjugates: Advancing Targeted Photodynamic Therapy for Lung Cancer

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Lung cancer is a type of cancer that develops around the airways or lungs and continues to be the leading cause of cancer‐related deaths worldwide. This has necessitated the need for innovative therapeutic strategies to overcome the limits of existing therapies such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

A connectivity‐based algorithm for wood–leaf separation from terrestrial laser scanning data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2836-2857, December 2025.
Abstract Tree architecture, characterized by the three‐dimensional (3D) arrangement of branches, plays a critical role in regulating key ecological functions such as light interception, resource transport and structural stability. Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) has emerged as a powerful tool for capturing detailed and accurate structural information ...
