A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

Ecography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

Ecography, EarlyView.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Discovery of a novel series of phenylthiazole thioether (sulfone) compounds based on natural thiasporine A as potential candidates for controlling rice fungal and bacterial diseases

Food and Energy Security
Half of the world's population depends on rice for their calories. Protecting rice in the growth period from damage caused by phytopathogens is faced with a great challenge under the frequent extreme climate.

A Network Approach to Support Sustainability Policy Coordination: Exploring Linkages Between Biodiversity Indicators and Essential Biodiversity Variables

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global sustainability policy demands coordination among domain‐specific policies, yet a major challenge persists in policy monitoring and reporting, where various, often uncoordinated indicator initiatives exist. To address this challenge, we apply a network approach to investigate linkages between the indicators of the Sustainable Development

The Phytochrome-Interacting Factor OsPIL11 Coordinates Grain Weight and Grain Number Via Directly Regulating the Expression of OsMIR530 and OsCKX2 in Rice

Rice
Grain weight and panicle architecture are pivotal determinants of rice yield, yet the regulatory mechanisms coordinating these traits remain elusive. Here, we functionally characterized a phytochrome-interacting factor, OsPIL11, serving as a negative ...

Nature‐Based Solutions for Climate Adaptation: Review of Barriers to Adoption and Guidelines for Policymakers

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NBS) for climate adaptation encompass a range of approaches that work with nature to increase resilience to climate change while providing ecological, economic and social co‐benefits. These solutions have frequently been put forward for application in urban contexts, such as the creation of urban forests, but can ...

A “demand and supply” approach to monitoring habitat and population changes of migratory birds

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Habitat loss and degradation threaten thousands of migratory bird species worldwide. Yet, because the distributions of migratory birds change throughout the year, quantifying the impacts of threats and identifying key sites for conservation attention have proved challenging.

Metagenomic mining reveals novel Cas12 subtypes and their evolutionary diversification

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
We identified 4112 Cas12 Proteins and 6 new Cas12 subtypes, revealed their significant diversity in N‐terminal regions, repeat sequences, and sequences motifs. We developed an AI‐driven algorithm, Cas12fam, which allows precise annotation of 18 distinct domains in Cas12 proteins.
