Fall grazing improves the performance of Kernza intermediate wheatgrass as a dual‐purpose crop

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Kernza intermediate wheatgrass (IWG) [Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth & D.R. Dewey] is a perennial grain and forage crop with novel dual‐use potential. Grazing IWG forage and/or intercropping IWG with legumes can increase total annual forage yields, but the effect of grazing timing on grain yield needs to be understood to maximize ...

Mowing Modulates the Biotic Filter of Expansive Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Management type and expansive species influence plant community diversity in complex ways. Overall increase of expansive species cover acts as biotic filter in reducing the alpha and beta taxonomic and phylogenetical diversity. However, the filtering effect is modulated by management type, being more intense under mown grasslands.

Evaluating the Quantitative Accuracy and Application of DNA Metabarcoding for Dietary Reconstruction in Ruminants

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study assessed the accuracy of DNA metabarcoding using ITS2 and trnL markers to reconstruct sheep diets under controlled feeding trials with high‐ and low‐digestibility forage, and in a secondary trial with low‐level inclusions of Medicago sativa. ITS2 offered higher species‐level resolution, while trnL provided broader taxonomic coverage but less

Plant identity determines pollinator, natural enemy, herbivore, and decomposer abundances in flower plantings

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Flower plantings in agricultural landscapes can contribute to sustainable crop production by enhancing pollination and biological control services. However, selecting plant species that promote multiple ecosystem services is challenging, since plants that favor pollinators may not equally foster natural enemies, and potential trade‐offs, such ...

Multi‐species productive grasslands offer advantages over permanent grasslands for arthropod conservation, but preserving semi‐natural grasslands remains essential

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
SNGs remain irreplaceable for arthropod conservation, supporting the highest gamma diversity and providing habitat for species sensitive to high LUI. They should be regarded as the cornerstone of arthropod conservation in agricultural landscapes. MSPGs represent an improved alternative to PGs, particularly by enhancing floral resources, although their ...
