Ecological Stoichiometric Relationships Among Wood-Feeding Insects, Host Trees, and Soils in an Urban Tropical Ecosystem. [PDF]
In wood‐feeding insects, the presence of elemental composition suggests a potential nutritional deficiency. In this regard, the research aimed to examine the ecological stoichiometric mismatches between wood‐feeding insects and their tree hosts, analysing the components and stoichiometric mismatches of the forest ecosystem, as well as the role of soil.

The Genome of Rhyzopertha dominica (Fab.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae): Adaptation for Success. [PDF]
The lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae), is a major global pest of cereal grains. Infestations are difficult to control as larvae feed inside grain kernels, and many populations are resistant to both contact insecticides and fumigants. We sequenced the genome of R.

Abstract Cork oak landscapes are fascinating ecosystems, historically managed for cork extraction. The persistence in this habitat of many hollow veteran trees provides suitable micro‐habitats for saproxylic beetles. We investigated the saproxylic beetle community of two isolated cork oak woodlands of central Italy with different degree of recovery ...

Using deep learning to assess the toxicological effects of sublethal exposure of a novel green pesticide in a stored-product beetle. [PDF]
This study employs an AI‐driven multidisciplinary approach to increase our understanding of the toxicological effects of sublethal concentrations of carlina oxide on Prostephanus truncatus. Sublethal exposure to the carlina oxide induced changes in motor patterns and thigmotaxis, highlighting its potential role in integrated pest management strategies.
