“Tremble, pests”: Insect natural enemy‐induced changes in pests before attack and their implications for biological control

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Abstract Insect natural enemies, encompassing predators and parasitoids, serve as vital regulators of pest populations and architects of ecosystem balance. Most studies on natural enemies have focused on understanding the mechanisms by which these insects eliminate pests after an attack.

Regulatory mechanisms of reproduction in locusts and grasshoppers

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Regulatory networks composed of numerous coding and noncoding genes play crucial roles in the reproduction of locusts and grasshoppers. This review integrates mechanistic advances in reproductive regulation, highlighting environmentally adaptive pathways and providing prospective targets for eco‐friendly pesticides.

Juvenile hormone‐mediated accelerated post‐flight recovery of ovarian development in Loxostege sticticalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Flight in female beet webworms (Loxostege sticticalis) promotes an increase in feeding, thereby enhancing abdominal energy reserves. Following flight, the flight muscles undergo accelerated histolysis, and the energy substances undergoing histolysis are redirected to the ovaries. These two processes collectively promote ovarian development.

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks

Oikos, EarlyView.
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.
