Multi‐environment trials and participatory validation identify soybean genotypes with mechanized harvest‐enabling traits in Ghana

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) harvesting in Ghana is predominantly manual, and labor shortages frequently delay harvest beyond physiological maturity, exacerbating shattering losses. Mechanization could mitigate these losses, but effective combine harvesting requires cultivars with elevated first pod height (FPH) to minimize header losses ...

The Vocal Repertoire of Gray‐Cheeked Mangabeys (Lophocebus albigena) in the Bugoma Forest Reserve, Uganda

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 9, September 2026.
We describe four acoustically and contextually distinct call types in the vocal repertoire of a previously unstudied population of gray‐cheeked mangabeys. These findings provide novel data on an understudied species, expanding our understanding of primate communicative diversity and paving the way for future comparative studies.

Total Phenolic Content, Antioxidant and Cytotoxic Activity of Three Jacaranda Species (Bignoniaceae)

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Jacaranda species (Bignoniaceae) collected in the Serra do Espinhaço—Brazil's only mountain range and home to one of the planet's highest levels of biodiversity—exhibit interesting antioxidant activities and superior selectivity toward the acute monocytic leukemia cell line (THP‐1) when compared to the standard drug cytarabine.

Mitigating Effects of Nest Structure on Predation Risk in Hainan Partridge (Arborophila ardens)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Enclosed nest structures can disrupt predator search efficiency and reduce predation risk. Predation rate in the uncovered group was significantly higher than that in the covered group. Our study highlights the functional limitations of nest‐structure evolution within complex predation environments.

Population Status, Ecology and Conservation Challenges of Cattle Egrets (Bubulcus ibis), Especially in the Southern Africa Subregion: A Systematic Review and Evidence Synthesis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
The Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis) occupies a wide range of natural and human‐modified habitats, yet research effort across its range is highly uneven. Our systematic review of 173 studies synthesises patterns in population trends, habitat use, breeding ecology, threats and ecosystem services, revealing strong geographic and thematic biases in available ...
