Multiple signalling increases both prey response and diversity in a carnivorous pitcher plant
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Organisms across the tree of life use multiple signals such as colour, movement sound, and many types of chemical signals to convey seemingly the same information. These signals are potentially costly, yet the repeated evolution of multiple signalling across systems ...

From beginning to end: the synecology of tree‐killing bark beetles, fungi, and trees
ABSTRACT Over a century of research has revealed an amazing complexity of behaviours and physiological adaptations that allow tiny bark beetles to overcome large trees, sometimes resulting in outbreaks that kill millions of trees. Turning a tree into a home and successfully raising offspring involves constant interactions among the beetles, the tree ...

The constituents of essential oils of Ferulago angulata (Schlecht.) Boiss at two different habitats, Nevakoh and Shahoo, Zagross Mountain, western Iran [PDF]
– Ferulago angulata (Apiaceae), a medicinal plant of western Asia, contains essential oils that are used as a food preservative. This study examined and compared the composition of leaf oil with seed oil and of the oils from two different habitats (one

Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Abstract Aerosol nucleation accounts for the majority of secondary aerosols, yet it is unclear how biogenic and anthropogenic chemical precursors contribute to nucleation in mixed atmospheric environments. Here, we show laboratory experiments and quantum calculations, which demonstrate, for the first time to our knowledge, that highly oxygenated ...
