Artists in Nursery Schools: Enabling Free Play and Self‐Expression Through the Arts

International Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The purpose of this research was to analyse the presence of artists in nursery schools by means of two proposals to promote free play and self‐expression for children between one and 3 years‐old and their families. Researchers compiled evidence from the perspective of three atelieristas and other participating adults, through interviews and ...

Drought Stress Promotes Aphis gossypii Growth but Decreases Host Attractiveness in Melon

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a significant environmental factor that affects plant physiology and growth, leading to considerable detrimental effects on crop productivity. Cucumis melo, which is widely cultivated for its economic value, is particularly susceptible to water scarcity.

Life‐stage and environmental influences on the recruitment of African freshwater eels into the uThukela River, South Africa

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anguillid eel recruitment into east‐flowing rivers along the east coast of Africa is poorly understood. The few harvest records of anguillid eels from South Africa have highlighted anthropogenically derived environmental stressors as risks for further decline.

Economic Dependencies and Nationalist Divergences: Public Versus Private Sector Employment and Beyond in Corsican Separatist Nationalism

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Separatist nationalism often persists in divided minority regions where internal factions struggle to agree on governance models, perpetuating conflict and political tension. This article examines the key structural and situational factors driving these divisions in Corsica, focusing on economic dependencies that shape divergent approaches to ...

Trait‐based recovery of insect functional diversity following pine removal in a shrubland biodiversity hotspot

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction A primary goal of habitat restoration is the return of both taxonomic and functional diversity to support ecosystem resilience and functioning. This study assessed how insect functional biodiversity (focusing on beetles [Coleoptera] and ants [Formicidae]) responds to invasive pine (Pinus spp.) removal, in a Mediterranean‐type ...

Aircraft Wing Morphing Using Auxetic Structures

International Journal of Innovative Science and Research Technology (IJISRT)
Cellular materials exhibit two key properties: structures and mechanisms. This allows for the design of structures using cellular materials while effectively controlling both stiffness and flexibility, based on the connectivity of the struts. This study aims to explore the in-plane flexible properties of cellular materials dominated by bending under ...

Learned Family on the Educator‐Kibbutzim—Knowledge, Kinship, and Social Transformation as Historical Legacy

Anthropology &Education Quarterly, Volume 57, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This article explores how educator‐kibbutzim recruit socialist‐Zionist learning traditions to construct new forms of kinship. Bringing communities of practice theory to new kinship studies, we expand on the role of knowledge in bridging the social/biological.

Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 749-777, April 2026.
Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.

First Report of Ophiostoma clavatum and Fusarium verticillioides Associated With Ips acuminatus‐Infested Scots Pine in Western Ukraine

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study provides the first record of Ophiostoma clavatum associated with Ips acuminatus in Ukraine, and the first evidence of Fusarium verticillioides coexisting with ophiostomatoid fungi in infested Scots pines. This fungal association may contribute to the decline of Scots pine stands.

Tetraopes Milkweed Beetle Genomes Elucidate the Adaptive Basis of a Temperate Coevolutionary Radiation

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...
