Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Mating order and remating of females by males with different endosymbiont associations strongly shape Wolbachia‐induced cytoplasmic incompatibility, female fitness and offspring sex ratio. An incompatible first mating was weakly affected if followed by a compatible mating and vice versa, indicating strong first‐male sperm precedence with consequences ...

Sexual Communication in the Drosophila Genus
Insects, 2014 In insects, sexual behavior depends on chemical and non-chemical cues that might play an important role in sexual isolation. In this review, we present current knowledge about sexual behavior in the Drosophila genus.

Cuticular hydrocarbons in social insects
, 2021 All insects are covered by an epicuticular lipid layer comprising of long hydrocarbon chains generally termed cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs)(2). In social insects, CHCs play multiple roles: they primarily serve structural and anti-desiccation functions, but they are also involved in various forms of signalling.

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.Guided by the spectral demand of plant photosystems, this review summarizes the synthesis, emission regulation, dual‐emission design, and gram‐scale production of CDs for agricultural applications. Spectrally matched blue‐ and red‐emissive CDs enhance plant light utilization by converting underutilized light into photosynthetically active radiation and

Human‐Centered Monitoring of Asphalt Emissions: Linking Exposure, Climate, and Health
Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.A human‐centered framework linking heat‐driven asphalt emissions to real‐world exposure, biological response, and functional health outcomes, highlighting how climate‐sensitive infrastructure can become a measurable, manageable source of urban environmental and health risk. ABSTRACT Urban infrastructure shapes environmental quality not only through its

Oxaziridines: Versatile Reagents in Modern Organic Synthesis
The Chemical Record, EarlyView.Being capable of transferring an O atom and N‐group/atom, oxaziridines are considered multitasking agents. These are employed for diverse organic transformations, such as epoxidation of olefins, α‐ and γ‐hydroxylation/amination of carbonyl compounds, oxidation of sulfides, [3+2]cycloaddition with unsaturated systems.
