Frontiers in quantifying wildlife behavioural responses to chemical pollution
ABSTRACT Animal behaviour is remarkably sensitive to disruption by chemical pollution, with widespread implications for ecological and evolutionary processes in contaminated wildlife populations. However, conventional approaches applied to study the impacts of chemical pollutants on wildlife behaviour seldom address the complexity of natural ...

We addressed the numbers, kinds and evolution of cerambycid plant cell wall degrading enzymes (PCWDEs) by surveying larval midgut transcriptomes from 23 species representing six of the eight recognized subfamilies of Cerambycidae. We identified 340 new putative PCWDEs belonging to ten carbohydrate active enzyme families, including two gene families ...
