Significance of Temperature-Rearing Conditions for Shaping the Responses of the Aphid Parasitoid, Aphidius platensis, Under Thermal Stress

open access: yesAgriculture
A key aspect of climate change’s impact on organisms lies in understanding their ability to adapt to shifting and stressful environmental conditions. Insects, such as parasitoid wasps, are particularly vulnerable due to limited heat tolerance.

Joint Angular Excursions and Angular Range Utilization During Stance‐Phase Locomotion in Terrestrial Mammals: A Comparative Morphofunctional Data Set

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 4, Page 361-376, May 2026.
This study quantifies stance‐phase joint angular excursions and angular utilization (AUI%) during walking in 182 terrestrial mammal species. Across mammals, total limb excursion during stance (TAE) decreases with increasing body mass, whereas AUI% remains broadly conserved, indicating similar proportional use of summed joint excursions to generate net ...
