Spatial Interpolation in Applied Insect Ecology: A Review, Including Guidelines and Datasets for Practical Use

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spatial interpolation represents a fundamental approach in applied insect ecology, offering insight into species distributions and supporting biodiversity analysis, pest management and disease vector mapping. Insects—including important pollinators—face escalating threats due to habitat loss, climate change and anthropogenic pressures. As data‐

Integrating Plant Volatile Scents in Sustainable IPM Approaches for Fall Armyworm Control

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the invasion of the fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) into new regions, studies have oriented toward low‐cost management tools and methods. This study assessed the effects of volatile scents that are naturally emitted by essential oil (EO) plants on the severity of FAW and populations of its natural ...

Domestication During Restoration: Unintentional Selection During Eight Generations of Wild Seed Propagation Reduces Herkogamy, Dichogamy and Heterozygosity in Clarkia pulchella

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed production on native seed farms has increased to meet the rising demand for plant material for restoration. Although these propagation efforts are necessary for restoration, cultivating wild populations may also result in unintentional selection and elicit evolutionary changes that mimic crop domestication, essentially turning these ...

Reproductive Barriers and Genomic Hotspots of Adaptation During Allopatric Species Divergence

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Theory predicts that in allopatric populations, genomic divergence and reproductive barriers may be driven by random genetic drift and thereby evolve slowly in large populations. However, local adaptation and divergence under selection may also play important roles, which remain poorly characterised.

The Genetics of Host Plant Acceptance in Pea Aphids

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The evolution of host‐associated sympatric populations in phytophagous insects (so called “host races”) connects adaptive divergence to barriers to gene flow. Pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) host races specialise on legume species, and because host plant choice leads to assortative mating, the genetic basis of host plant acceptance is key to ...
