Key message Although leaf turgor loss point reflects osmotic potential variation in Eucalyptus, the osmometer method alone does not reliably rank drought tolerance among genotypes in breeding-oriented common-garden trials. Abstract Increasing droughts driven by climate change highlight the need to identify traits associated with drought tolerance in tree breeding programs. However, finding operationalizable traits that effecti...

Crop diversification is a promising strategy to strengthen pest control services in agricultural landscapes. Diversifying crops may limit pests through host crop dilution or by enhancing top‐down control by their enemies. However, crop diversification may also benefit generalist pests through higher resource continuity. Using a large‐scale dataset encompassing 742 landscapes across 13 countries, we assessed the impact of lands...

Ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) and ferric derisomaltose (FDI) are key for treating iron deficiency anemia. However, FCM has been shown to raise serum fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 levels, causing hypophosphatemia and alterations in bone turnover in some patients. To date, it is unknown if FCM and FDI also affect bone mineralization. This study examined FDI and FCM effects on bone mineralization and FGF-23 in healthy mice, avo...

In April 2024, two cases of hepatitis A (HA) were linked to the consumption of oysters produced in the same region, which triggered a multidisciplinary study. A network was quickly set up in a one-health approach including epidemiological and clinical data, as well as analysis of locally collected shellfish and wastewater samples. By the end of the outbreak, up to 17 HA cases met the case definition: all shared a same genotype...

The Mesolithic period has a long history of study in the Cantabrian region (Northern Iberia) due to the relatively high concentration of human remains dating to this period. Previous analysis of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes focussed on bone collagen, useful in broadly characterising Mesolithic diet, and particularly in identifying distinct inland and coastal diets. But this long-term average view does not permit the stu...

Recreational fisheries in remote regions often operate under limited regulation and data availability, presenting challenges for sustainable management. Diego Garcia, located within the Chagos Marine Protected Area, hosts a unique recreational reef fishery embedded within a highly protected environment. We assessed the stock status of five key species— Lutjanus bohar , L. gibbus , L. monostigma , Caranx melampygus , and Variol...
