Does behaviour matter? The role and feasibility of research into arthropod behavioural syndromes to inform invertebrate translocation efforts

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Animal personality plays a key role in translocation success in both wild‐to‐wild and captive‐to‐wild translocations, with important implications for the success of conservation projects. However, the majority of studies so far have explored the link between personality and translocation success in vertebrate translocations, and there has been less ...

Establishment of transgenic Drosophila suzukii lines that express phiC31 integrase and carry the sepia gene as a marker for transformation

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Germline transformation of the Drosophila suzukii se1 strain with the wild‐type sepia gene (~1.8 kb) using a piggyBac vector. Most lines show full rescue of sepia mutant eye colour. The lines express phage phiC31 integrase in the germline using a Dsnanos promoter.

The Hidden Diptera Diversity in Aristolochia Trap‐Flowers: Revealing the Identity of Pollinators Through Taxonomic Knowledge

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although Diptera is one of the most diverse insect orders with a high potential for pollinating plants, it remains poorly studied and neglected. This is partly due to limited taxonomic efforts in species identification. For instance, despite being primary pollinators of trap flowers, species‐level identification in these systems remains scarce.

Multimodal floral cues resembling both generalized food sources and oviposition sites in Isotrema manshuriense (Aristolochiaceae) pollinated by flies

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The protogynous flowers of Isotrema manshuriense exhibit multimodal cues, resembling both generalized food sources and fly oviposition sites, with these cues varying across sexual phases. Abstract The genus Aristolochia is renowned for its kettle‐like trap flowers that temporarily retain visiting insects, primarily using trapping trichomes.
