Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 221-245, June 2026.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Da Vinci's mischief: xylem conduits in the stems of woody plants do not furcate

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3001-3013, June 2026.
Summary The hydraulic architecture of plants is often modeled as a ‘furcating’ network, in which xylem conduits proliferate in number toward the stem apex, analogous to animal circulatory systems. Yet whether furcation actually occurs within woody stems remains untested, despite major implications for carbon costs and hydraulic efficiency.

Similar Relative Carbon Costs for Construction and Storage of Sun and Shade Branches in Mature Temperate Trees

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 3351-3362, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Irradiance strongly affects the morphology, carbon (C) uptake and construction costs of leaves and branches. Within tree crowns, light decreases from the top downwards, but whether this translates to differences in the C balance of sun and shade branches remains unclear. Here, we combined a light‐driven photosynthesis model, parameterised with

Catherine de' Medici and the Forest of Orleans: Queenly Participation in Early Modern French Forest Management

Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 507-531, June 2026.
Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...

Effect of planting date and phosphorus fertilization on Prizm zoysiagrass establishment from sprigs

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp. Willd.) is a popular warm‐season turfgrass in the transition zone and southern United States. It is known for its low input requirements and enhanced cold and shade tolerance compared to bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.). However, the slow growth of zoysiagrass can hinder rapid establishment from sprigs.
