No safe refuge? Contrasting effects of hunting on rainforest mammal persistence and (re)colonisation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Our results imply that hunting not only targets areas used as refuges by wildlife, but also reduces recolonisation potential and may therefore alter source–sink dynamics. We recommend spatially targeted community‐led actions to limit hunting where wildlife still persists through the creation of no‐hunting areas to ensure the long‐term persistence of ...

Inhibitory Effects of Litchi Extract on Sebum Secretion and Its Mechanism: Evidence From a Mouse Model and Sebaceous Gland Cell Transcriptomics

open access: yesJournal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Acne vulgaris is one of the most common chronic inflammatory dermatological disorders, affecting 85%–100% of adolescents and persisting into adulthood for a significant portion of the population. Litchi chinensis, a subtropical fruit originating from Southern China and famously associated with the Guangzhou region, is commercially ...

The Influence of Plant Species Composition on an Endangered Grassland Specialist Reptile, the Hungarian Meadow Viper

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The study investigated how the horizontal structure and functional composition of grassland vegetation influence the occupancy and density of the highly endangered Hungarian meadow viper. Using plant community data and viper surveys from 59 quadrats, the best models showed that vipers prefer wetter meadows with fewer and shorter plant species, and a ...

Mass mortality of saguaros (Carnegiea gigantea) from windthrow: A rare, demographic disturbance in a desert ecosystem

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Windthrow is a significant disturbance in many forests globally during which strong winds damage trees or other large flora, yet its role in arid ecosystems remains largely understudied. The saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea), a keystone species of the Sonoran Desert, is a long‐lived, massive succulent whose demography is primarily thought to

Developing and Applying a Typology of ‘Better for You’ Claims on Alcohol Products

open access: yesDrug and Alcohol Review, Volume 45, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction To appeal to health‐conscious consumers, alcohol producers are marketing products with a range of ‘better for you’ claims. This study aims to: (i) develop a typology of text‐based ‘better for you’ claims used on alcohol products; (ii) assess the prevalence of these claims in the Australian market overall and by alcohol category ...

Plant Functional Traits and Vegetation Structure Explain Pollination Networks at Scale

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
Being able to quantify interactions between different taxa at scale is critical for understanding terrestrial ecosystem functioning and global food production, as in the case of plant‐pollinator interactions. Here, we apply plant functional strategies remotely sensed at the landscape scale to predict the structure of plant‐pollinator networks at a ...
