Geographic, Taxonomic and Metric Gaps in Biodiversity Research Limit Evidence‐Based Conservation in Agricultural Landscapes: An Umbrella Review

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2025.
We systematically reviewed 200 meta‐analyses (gathering over 9000 primary studies) on the effects of agriculture on biodiversity in croplands. Our systematic map of secondary research highlights significant geographical and taxonomic gaps, uncovering an overfocus on simple biodiversity metrics and on individual agricultural practices rather than ...

Mitochondrial mRNA oligocitydylation occurs in Chlorophyceae and Ulvales but not Bryopsidales or Trebouxiophyceae

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 1195-1205, October 2025.
Abstract Mitochondrial mRNAs in the green algal class Chlorophyceae have non‐template 3' oligo‐cytosine‐rich additions, also known as oligo(C), polycitydylation, or poly(C) “tails.” These oligonucleotide additions are believed to be unique to green algal mitochondria, as none have been observed in any other organism.

Legacy of the Lost and Pressure of the Present: Malagasy Plant Seeds Retain Megafauna Dispersal Signatures but Downsize Under Human Pressure

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2025.
Using structural equation models, we show that Malagasy assemblages with higher human pressure have smaller maximum seed sizes, especially through downsizing of extant frugivores. Furthermore, among assemblages with ‘mega‐seeded’ plants (i.e., seeds that cannot be swallowed by any extant Malagasy frugivore), larger seed sizes are associated with larger

A Short‐Read Amplicon Sequencing Protocol and Bioinformatic Pipeline for Ecological Surveillance of Dipteran Disease Vectors

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 6, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.

Over 1200 Non‐Native Species Are Established in the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim As a consequence of globalisation, biological invasions have become an increasing concern due to multifaceted ecological and socio‐economic impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services. Despite the increasing availability and accessibility of data, a comprehensive assessment of established non‐native species and their distribution in the

Global patterns in plant environmental breadths

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 6, June 2025.
The latitudinal gradient in plant diversity is one of the most famous patterns in ecology. It is hypothesised that narrow niche breadths and restricted geographic ranges in the tropics allow more species to coexist with minimal overlap relative to high‐latitude regions.

Synthesis of Population Trends Reveals Seascape‐Wide Reorganisation of Biodiversity From Microalgae to Birds

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
We present a systematic and quantitative analysis of population trends to capture the seascape‐wide reorganisation of biodiversity from microalgae to birds. First, we categorised population trends and found over one third of populations in the Wadden Sea to change, that is, increase or decrease.
