Larval antibiosis to cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is absent within oilseed rape (Brassica napus)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We screened a panel of 98 Brassicaceae genotypes (97 Brassica napus and 1 Sinapis alba) for cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) larval antibiosis. We found limited evidence for antibiosis across B. napus but consistent antibiosis in S. alba. Brassicaceae relatives may therefore better inform resistance traits for breeding.

Lacking data? No worries! How synthetic images can alleviate image scarcity in wildlife surveys: A case study with muskox (Ovibos moschatus)

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study investigates the integration of synthetic imagery, created with diffusion‐based models, to supplement limited training data and improve muskox (Ovibos moschatus) detection in zero‐shot (ZS) and few‐shot (FS) settings. ZS models detected more than 80% of muskoxen in real images, confirming the potential of synthetic data as a substitute for ...

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article reports on a qualitative study of the way instructors and students understand and respond to traumatizing events in a Sri Lankan university. It shows how the attitudes and practices in the society at large are carried over to classrooms even though local institutions do not have a programmatic trauma‐informed pedagogy.
