S‐Methyl‐l‐Cysteine Sulfoxide: A Hidden Layer of Defences Against Herbivorous Insects in Brassicaceae

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants defend themselves against herbivorous insects through diverse morphological and biochemical traits. Non‐protein amino acids (NPAAs) are an important component of the plant metabolome, although their defensive function remains largely unexplored.

Characterization of luciferase from an Indian firefly Abscondita sp. (Coleoptera: Lampiridae)

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
(Left panel) Abscondita sp. (Lampyridae) collected in Guwahati, India. Scale bar = 5 mm. ( Right panel) Spectrum analysis of recombinant luciferase derived from this species at different pH. Unlike the other Lampyridae luciferases, this one showed pH insensitivity.

Sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on rock coast shore platforms

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite tufa deposits being widely distributed and increasingly recognised globally on rock coasts, their distribution in the tidal frame and geomorphology is poorly understood. The distribution, sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on supratidal rock coasts are assessed and their controls established.

How many cows are in the desert? Molecular phylogeny and species delimitation of the genus Gyriosomus (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae: Pimeliinae) from the Atacama Desert

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
The newly systematic rearrangement of Gyriosomus recognizes 9 clades, validates 21 taxonomical species and suggests 12 synonyms and 12 species candidates. Three taxonomical species were not evaluated. Polymorphisms, convergences and crypsis have been detected, and therefore morphology‐based taxonomy should be approached with caution. Ecological drivers

Complementary genomic and morphological data elucidate the phylogeny of obscure darkling beetles (Blaptinae: Platynotini: Eurynotina)

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
First comprehensive phylogenomic study of subtribe Eurynotina using a combined dataset of 499 nuclear loci, 12 mitochondrial loci and 91 morphological characters covering all genera and species groups is presented. Eurynotina is monophyletic and genera within are redefined based on reassessment of old characters, generation of new characters, and ...
