Still standing: persistence traits capture belowground plant functions beyond resource exploration and acquisition

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual linkages between traits and plant functioning leads to three dimensions of variation in the belowground functional space. Summary Belowground plant trait research has predominantly focused on trade‐offs in fine‐root traits via the root economics space (RES).

Humidity‐driven shape morphing enhances fog harvesting in porous cactus spines

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Spine straightening and water collection during fog exposure in Turbinicarpus alonsoi. Summary Cacti develop spines instead of conventional leaves, which often serve as mechanical defence against herbivores. However, some cactus species grow porous and flexible spines, suggesting fundamentally different functions.

Resilience as a Fiscal Input: County Financial Condition in an Open Systems Framework

open access: yesPublic Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores how community resilience shapes local fiscal health by integrating the Baseline Resilience Indicators for Communities (BRIC) into an open‐systems framework of public finance. Using financial data from U.S. counties for fiscal years 2016 and 2021, we examined whether the six BRIC domains explain variation in operating ...

The TaCOMT1A‐Synthesised Sakuranetin Is a Novel Biostimulant Enhancing Drought Tolerance and Yield in Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a major limitation to global wheat production. Here, we demonstrate that the wheat gene TaCOMT1A, encoding a caffeic acid O‐methyltransferase, plays a crucial role in enhancing drought tolerance in wheat. Overexpression of TaCOMT1A significantly improved drought tolerance at the seedling stage, as evidenced by higher survival

Expert Recommendations for Use of Combined Oral Contraceptives in Preadolescent and Young Adolescent Patients With Acne Vulgaris

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acne vulgaris commonly presents in early adolescence with the onset of adrenarche. Treatments for acne in this age group typically mirror those in older adolescents. However, while combined oral contraceptives are an effective hormonal treatment for acne vulgaris in young women, the safety of using a systemic hormonal therapy in younger ...

AABB survey on directed blood donation practices

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Standardized guidance regarding the processes for collecting directed blood donations (DBD) is lacking, leading to variable practices. This study assessed laboratory, clinical, and charging practices for DBD collection in the United States and Canada. Study Design and Methods An electronic survey was distributed to United States and

Agronomic and economic responses of reduced‑lignin and conventional alfalfa to potassium

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Lignin‐modified (reduced‐lignin) alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cultivars offer improved forage digestibility but may differ from non–lignin‐modified (conventional) cultivars in nutrient requirements. This study evaluated the effects of potassium (K) fertilization on stem production, forage accumulation, K uptake, forage nutritive value, and ...

Mode‐of‐Action and Human Relevance Assessment for Diisononyl Phthalate‐Induced Liver Tumors in Rodents

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 12, Page 4264-4287, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) is a high molecular weight phthalate and high production volume chemical. DINP's carcinogenic potential has been investigated in four rodent bioassays, with liver tumors observed in three of the studies. Authoritative assessments have hypothesized that DINP acts through the peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor
