A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 9, Page 1011-1021, September 2026.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...

Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radially Contracting Applications

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

Children's food activism: Reflections on knowledge and responsibility

British Educational Research Journal, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 2408-2427, August 2026.
Abstract Children as activists have become more prominent in recent years. Their activism is manifest in relation to conspicuously political topics such as Black Lives Matter, voting rights, being able to air their views or protesting against injustices related to race, culture and other identities. Less often, if at all, do children engage politically

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1805-1829, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Distribution Shifts of Vaccinium Berry Wild Relatives in China Under Climate and Land‐Use Changes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using ensemble species distribution models, we projected the future distributions of eight Vaccinium berry wild relatives in China under climate and land‐use changes, as well as different dispersal scenarios. Most species were predicted to experience range contraction and higher latitude shifts, while climatic variables exerted stronger effects than ...
