Moral Assumptions in Causal Thought: Poverty and Perversity

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Causal attributions, framings, and ideas shape moral judgments.

Expression analyses of chemosensory genes provide insights into evolution of gustatory receptor genes in the bumble bee Bombus impatiens

BMC Genomics
Background The chemoreceptor gene families, which include gustatory, ionotropic, and odorant receptor gene families, are highly conserved across the insects yet also contain many recently duplicated, species-specific genes in particular clades.

Physiological cerebrospinal fluid interactions between brain and eye structures are altered after long‐duration spaceflight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight represents an extreme challenge, triggering adaptive responses including spaceflight‐associated neuro‐ocular syndrome, characterized by diminished visual acuity and ocular changes, which is a significant health risk for Mars missions.

Bumble bee gut microbial community structure differs between species and commercial suppliers, but metabolic potential remains largely consistent

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Bumble bees are key pollinators for natural and agricultural plant communities. Their health and performance are supported by a core gut microbiota composed of a few bacterial taxa. However, the taxonomic composition and community structure of bumble bee

Co‐Flowering Plant Species in a Glasshouse Boost Both Strawberry Production and Bee Health

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Integrating co‐flowering plants into glasshouse strawberry systems creates a “win‐win” synergy where floral diversification enhances stingless bee vitality and crop visitation. This approach increased A‐grade fruit from 25% to 70%, demonstrating that strategic biodiversity integration optimises both pollinator health and sustainable agricultural ...
