Exploring the importance of aromatic plants' extrafloral volatiles for pollinator attraction

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 517-528, October 2025.
Summary Aromatic plants occur in many plant lineages and have widespread ethnobiological significance. Yet, the ecological significance and evolutionary origins of aromatic volatile emissions remain uncertain. Aromatic emissions have been implicated in defensive interactions but may also have other important functions.

Environmental Requirements for Germination and Appressorium Formation of Ascospores and Conidia of Phyllosticta citricarpa, the Causal Agent of Citrus Black Spot

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 7, Page 2108-2120, September 2025.
Cardinal temperatures for both Phyllosticta citricarpa spore germination were estimated as ~10ºC (minimum) and ~40ºC (maximum), and the optimum temperatures were ~30ºC for ascospores and ~24ºC for conidia. ABSTRACT Phyllosticta citricarpa produces ascospores and conidia that infect citrus tissues and cause citrus black spot (CBS).

Ants on flowers: Protective ants impose a low but variable cost to pollination, moderated by location of extrafloral nectaries and type of flower visitor

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 8, Page 2187-2198, August 2025.
Individuals who engage in multiple mutualisms often have to pay indirect costs because of the interference of one mutualism on another. We found that protective ants had a low but variable impact on pollination, especially on the flower visitation by bees and when EFNs are close to inflorescences.

Critical monitoring and control factors for achieving food defense criteria

Risk Analysis, Volume 45, Issue 8, Page 2427-2441, August 2025.
Abstract Food can be contaminated by physical, chemical, biological, and radiological hazards. Industry and regulatory agencies have developed the Food Safety Management System, based on the principles of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points, to be effective against unintentional food safety risks. However, there is the intentional contamination

A Constant Trinitrotoluene Equivalence Fit for Blast Wave Position Versus Time Data

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 50, Issue 7, Page 44-54, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Accurately evaluating accidental or intentional detonation scenarios is essential to ensure their intended effectiveness and/or protect personnel and structures. These evaluations often rely on estimating critical blast effect parameters through reference models, which adapt to different scenarios via key constants.

Social protection and the climate crisis: The case of Brazil’s emergency responses to the 2024 Rio Grande do Sul floods

International Social Security Review, Volume 78, Issue 2-3, Page 123-144, April-September 2025.
Abstract The 2024 floods in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, prompted the largest and most rapid response to an extreme weather event in the country’s history. Brazil is a compelling case for analysing shock‐responsive and climate‐adaptive social protection because of its high level of decentralization and significant maturity of its social ...

Neural Incremental Dynamic Inversion Control of a Multirotor Robotic Airship

International Journal of Intelligent Systems, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This paper proposes a new type of incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion (INDI) controller whose model‐based component, the inverse of the control effectiveness matrix, is provided by a NARX recursive neural network. The resulting controller, called neural INDI (NINDI), acts typically as a usual INDI controller, with the advantage that the parameters ...
