Multiple signalling increases both prey response and diversity in a carnivorous pitcher plant
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.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 ...

Was Dan Janzen (1977) right about aphid clones being a "super-organism", i.e. a single "evolutionary individual"? : new insights from the use of molecular marker systems [PDF]
, 2008 Dan Janzen proposed in a paper in 1977 (loc. cit.), that a clone of aphids and for that matter dandelions consists, respectively, of one large ‘super-organism’.

Sequence analysis and genomic organization of Aphid lethal paralysis virus: a new member of the family Dicistroviridae [PDF]
, 2002 The complete nucleotide sequence of the genomic RNA of an aphid-infecting virus, Aphid lethal paralysis virus (ALPV), has been determined. The genome is 9812 nt in length and contains two long open reading frames (ORFs), which are separated by an ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant defence phenotypes commonly integrate physical and chemical traits that may act synergistically against herbivores, but empirical evidence for synergy as a defence strategy remains limited.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)
Insect Science, EarlyView.As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...
