Testing the Adaptive Significance of Personate Flowers in Penstemon (Plantaginaceae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Floral diversity across plant lineages reflects evolutionary shifts in mating strategy and pollinator specificity. The genus Penstemon contains a handful of species that display personate flowers—a peculiar bee‐pollinated floral type characterized by an upward bulge in the ventral portion of the corolla tube that obstructs the floral opening.

Advancing Research on Biomaterials and Biological Materials with Scanning Electron Microscopy under Environmental and Low Vacuum Conditions

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 7, 8 April 2026.
Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...

Effects of fire timing and snow cover on tallgrass prairie plant re‐emergence phenology, growth rate, and flowering

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract In a time of unprecedented global change, understanding plant community responses to contemporary disturbance regimes is necessary to improve the predictability of restoration outcomes. Although fires in tallgrass prairies historically occurred throughout the growing season, contemporary prescribed fires are often conducted during the dormant ...
