Nonhuman Pedagogical Relations: Towards Conceptual Limits

open access: yesEducational Theory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article considers the pedagogical relation as a relation to a nonhuman educator, wherein the educatee is a member of the Homo sapiens species. My aim is to clarify the extent to which a nonhuman‐human relation can be understood as pedagogical.

The Importance of the Larval Parasitoid Actia interrupta (Diptera: Tachinidae) in Low Density Eastern Spruce Budworm Populations

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Actia interrupta is an important larval tachinid parasitoid during low‐density populations of the eastern spruce budworm. In the late 1980s during the outbreak collapse, Meteorus trachynotus was initially the most important species, but was replaced by A. interrupta. Host patch size and density had no impact on the parasitism rates by A.

Fungicide Non‐Target Effects Cause Reduced Sawfly Herbivory in Treated and Neighbouring Strawberry Plants

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Application of the fungicide Switch 62.5 WG in garden strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa), targeting Botrytis cinerea, reduced sawfly (Cladius spp.) herbivory by up to 94% and improved fruit quality. This non‐target effect also spilled over to neighbouring untreated plants, lowering damage by 46%.

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Thermal acclimation and environment drive field dispersal patterns of adult Mediterranean fruit flies

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Ambient temperature significantly increased Mediterranean fruit fly recapture rates, demonstrating a strong effect of immediate environmental conditions on field dispersal. Female recaptures were 2.6‐fold higher in orchards containing host plants, whereas male recaptures were unaffected by host presence.

Leaders Are Somethin' Else: Behavioural Variation Associated With Roles During Tandem Running Recruitment

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
In this study, we found moderate to strong repeatabilities in behavioural variables measuring the personality traits: activity, aggressiveness and exploration. Similarly, the probability of acting as a leader during tandem running in an emigration event was moderately (R = 0.469) repeatable.

Reactive oxygen species, antioxidants and the regulation of plant development

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The regulation of axillary bud outgrowth by the interplay between phytohormone and redox signals. Axillary bud outgrowth is regulated by cellular energy status and the balance between phytohormones, notably abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellic acid (GA).

Towards Integrated Oral Healthcare in Long‐Term Care: Mapping Responsibilities, Coordination, and Organisational Support

open access: yesGerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective (i) to map responsibilities in the provision of oral healthcare for older adults in long‐term care settings (LTCs), (ii) to examine how coordination processes are described, (iii) to analyse how these responsibilities and coordination processes are distributed across professional groups, (iv) to synthesise these findings into a ...
