Effects of uncrewed aerial vehicle–applied triclopyr plus fluroxypyr rates on weeds and desirable forbs in Kansas tallgrass prairie

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract We studied the impacts of uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV)‐applied triclopyr + fluroxypyr on rangeland weeds and other forbs in native tallgrass prairie. Two rates were tested: high (0.63 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.21 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr) and low (0.21 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.07 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr).

Non‐crop habitats and cover crops as potential ecological corridors and stepping stones for autumnal migrating hoverflies

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1314-1320, September 2026.
Mass migration of hoverflies was observed near Prague city in a highly agricultural landscape, representing only the second record of hoverfly migration in the Czech Republic. This rare observation was likely driven by the need to rest, shelter and replenish energy, although most flowers had already finished blooming.

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1937-1959, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...

Resistance and Tolerance to Imperfectly Specialized Parasites: Milkweed Butterflies and Their Protozoan Parasites

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Understanding host specificity and cross‐species transmission of parasites is crucial for predicting the risk and consequences of parasite spillover. We experimentally examined these dynamics in two closely related, sympatric, milkweed butterfly hosts ...
