Spatial and temporal patterns of bark beetle and defoliator outbreaks, and their interactions, in the Pacific Northwest

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 5, July 2026.
Abstract The dynamics of many forest insects are changing in response to climate warming; however, patterns are not always consistent among or within taxa. Changes in outbreak dynamics for individual species have received much recent attention, but the potential for interactions among species has received less.

Onshore Wind Energy Development Causes Localized but Lasting Shifts in Plant Community Composition and Function

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
The effects of wind power plants on surrounding vegetation remain poorly understood. Vegetation surveys at three Norwegian wind power plants commissioned 4, 12, and 19 years ago showed that roads caused shifts in plant functional strategies toward species with ruderal strategies.

Herbivore Identity and Species Richness Shape Fruit Chemical and Quality Responses to Foliar Herbivory

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
The cascading effects of foliar herbivory on specialized metabolism, specifically within reproductive tissue like fruit, are relatively understudied. We conducted a greenhouse experiment with varying combinations of three common pest species on fruiting strawberry plants.

Aquatic macrophytes as nature‐based solutions: Challenges and opportunities across inland and coastal waters

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...

Fungal disease management in cotton using plant protection products: An Australian perspective

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6010-6023, July 2026.
Cotton disease management requires evidence‐driven use of plant protection products. Progress hinges on integrating chemistry, diagnostics, stewardship and sustainability to build resilient production systems. Abstract Cotton production faces persistent challenges from pathogens that compromise plant establishment, yield, and fibre quality.

RNA interference in crop protection: opportunities and challenges during the transition to commercialization

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 5971-5986, July 2026.
RNA interference (RNAi) technologies, host‐induced gene silencing (HIGS) and spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS), potentially offer sustainable crop protection. However, efficacy, costs, regulatory clarity, and socio‐environmental impacts require further evaluation for broader use.
