Dose‐Dependent Effect of Plant Volatiles on the Oviposition Preference of the Corn Leafhopper Dalbulus maidis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 4, Page 497-505, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major annual crop cultivated worldwide. In the Americas, the corn leafhopper Dalbulus maidis (DeLong) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is a key pest of this crop, causing direct damage to plants through phloem feeding and indirect damage by transmitting phytopathogens.

Translocation and deterrence as tools for conservation and management of Columbian ground squirrels (Urocitellus columbianus) in a national park

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Our study evaluates two non‐lethal methods for managing Columbian ground squirrels in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. We demonstrate that translocated squirrels exhibited lower survival than controls and that a deterrence methodology that includes blocking burrows may be an appropriate alternative, especially when combined with other tools ...

Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

A model to quantify the probability of collision between birds and aircraft: Applications for onboard lighting

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract Globally, bird and aircraft collisions are a major safety hazard and monetary expense for the aviation industry. Empirical evidence suggests that the behavioral response of an animal within close proximity of an approaching vehicle is a critical factor in determining whether a collision occurs.
