Niche Breadth and Olfactory Context Shape Informed Passive Dispersal

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
Experimental evolution reveals that niche breadth modulates informed passive dispersal in phytophagous mites through divergent strategies. While generalists optimise take‐off based on target cue familiarity and signal‐to‐noise ratios, specialists primarily track current host quality to trigger departure.

The genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes of the carrot weevil, Listronotus oregonensis, reveal adaptive mechanisms for host specialisation and symbiotic interactions

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 126-138, April 2026.
Comprehensive genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes reveal 14,637 genes in Listronotus oregonensis, advancing genetic insights into a key agricultural pest. Compared with related species, L. oregonensis exhibits reduced chemoreceptor gene families but expanded detoxification gene clusters, reflecting its narrow host range and adaptability.
