Herbivory reduces plant interactions with above- and belowground antagonists and mutualists. [PDF]

, 2012
Herbivores affect plants through direct effects, such as tissue damage, and through indirect effects that alter species interactions. Interactions may be positive or negative, so indirect effects have the potential to enhance or lessen the net impacts of

Identification of Blood Pressure‐Associated Metabolites by Integrating Metabolomic and Genetic Analysis

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study identified 10 potential causality between metabolites and blood pressure and found potential genetic regulators of two metabolites. Multiomics integration revealed that a genetic variant near the omega‐3 metabolism genes (FADS1/FADS2) may influence blood pressure regulation by modulating prostaglandin E3 levels.

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3603-3612, April 2026.
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...
