A moth odorant receptor highly expressed in the ovipositor is involved in detecting host-plant volatiles

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Antennae are often considered to be the nostrils of insects. Here, we sequenced the transcriptome of the pheromone gland-ovipositor complex of Helicoverpa assulta and discovered that an odorant receptor (OR) gene, HassOR31, had much higher expression in ...

The Mitogen‐Activated Protein Kinase GhNTF3 Modulates the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis‐Immunity Trade‐Off in Cotton by Regulating Salicylic Acid Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AM symbiosis induces GhWAK13 to promote fungal colonization. GhNTF3 negatively regulates symbiosis by promoting SA biosynthesis. GhWAK13 sequesters GhNTF3 at the membrane, limiting its nuclear translocation and relieving SA‐mediated suppression. Under Verticillium stress, GhNTF3 enters the nucleus and interacts with GhJAZ6 to activate SA signaling ...

Symbiont‐Induced HSP83 Establishes Two‐Tiered Control of Antifungal Immunity in an Invasive Beetle–Fungus Complex

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In an invasive beetle–fungus complex, the mutualist Leptographium procerum induces host HSP83 and modulates Toll‐dependent antifungal immunity. HSP83 mediates two‐tiered control by associating with selected fungal recognition receptors and restraining Dorsal‐driven antimicrobial peptide transcription.

Epidemiological model including spatial connection features improves prediction of the spread of pine wilt disease

open access: yesEcological Indicators
In recent decades, the tree killing pine wilt disease (PWD) has been spreading globally and has caused substantial damage, particularly in China, resulting in annual losses of nearly $15 billion.

Constrained Forest Methane Sink by Thermal Adaptation of Soil Methanotrophs

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Climate warming can stimulate methanotroph‐mediated CH4 oxidation in forest soils, thereby mitigating the increase in atmospheric CH4 concentrations. By integrating evidence from a macro‐climatic thermal gradient and a 70‐day incubation experiment, this study demonstrates that microbial methanotrophs can adapt to long‐term temperature changes at the ...

The larva and adult of Helicoverpa armigera use differential gustatory receptors to sense sucrose

open access: yeseLife
Almost all herbivorous insects feed on plants and use sucrose as a feeding stimulant, but the molecular basis of their sucrose reception remains unclear.

Forecasting marine invasions under climate change: Biotic interactions and demographic processes matter

open access: yes, 2016
Biological invasions are one of the most significant threats to marine biodiversity, and can be facilitated and amplified by climate change. Among all aspects of invasion biology, biotic interactions between invaders and native species are of particular ...

Generalist Predators Shape Biotic Resistance along a Tropical Island Chain

open access: yes, 2023
Islands offer exclusive prisms for an experimental investigation of biodiversity x ecosystem function interplay. Given that species in upper trophic layers, e.g., arthropod predators, experience a comparative disadvantage on small, isolated islands, such

Self‐Sustaining Sensing Systems: Integration Strategies and Signal–Power Matching in Energy‐Harvesting Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Energy‐harvesting‐integrated sensors couple ambient energy conversion with sensing, processing, and wireless communication. This review organizes recent progress through integration architectures and operating principles, revisiting co‐packaged, monolithic, and co‐functional designs together with always‐on, event‐driven, and multi‐modal sensing modes ...

Quantifying the utilisation of blue, green and brown resources by riparian predators: A combined use of amino acid isotopes and fatty acids

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Global change drives multiple facets of biodiversity including interaction diversity, which is fundamental for ecosystem functioning. However, studying trophic interactions is challenging in meta‐ecosystems, that is ecosystems connected by spatial flows ...
