The Last Course Revisited: Reflections on Policy, Praxis, and Protest

Culture, Agriculture, Food and Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article is a personal reflection on how SAFN addressed my academic identity crisis in the late 70s. The development of the anthropology of food and nutrition provided opportunities to refashion disciplinary praxis and to link the little and the large in interesting ways.

Amendment of Potting Soil With Black Soldier Fly Byproducts Affects Fungus Gnat Development

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The study's three experiments were conducted in accordance with the development stages of fungus gnats, with adults emerging from the four treatment substrates and being caught on sticky cards as a common indicator. The treatments were formed from peat‐free potting soil, either pure or supplemented with combinations of byproducts from black soldier fly

London Calling: Devolution and the London Living Wage Campaign

Industrial Relations Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the role of devolution in shaping employment relations through a case study of the Living Wage in London. Drawing on a mixed methods approach it explores the rationale and methods by which the Greater London Authority has promoted fair pay despite possessing limited direct legislative power.

Do Laboratory‐Reared Flies Perform Differently as Pollinators? Morphology, Behaviour and Pollination Performance of Eristalis tenax (Syrphidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flies (Diptera) are important pollinators in global agriculture, yet little is known about how intraspecific trait variation influences their pollination performance. We compared morphological traits, foraging behaviour and pollination‐related performance metrics between laboratory‐reared (hereafter lab‐reared) and wild populations of ...

Responses of Fruit Flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) to Protein Bait Applied at Different Densities

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effectiveness of odour‐based lures for insects is related to their active space, the air volume around an odour source in which an insect will detect and move towards it. This principle applies to protein baits laced with toxicants that are used as either sprays or stations to suppress pest fruit fly populations.

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

A role for core facilities in improving research rigour

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Scientific reproducibility is an ethical and societal responsibility. Discussions of reproducibility and repeatability often focus on the roles of stakeholders in the scientific process, including researchers, publishers, and funders. Core facility staff have distinct functions in research planning, training, interpretation and oversight which
