Exploring the potentials of Sesuvium portulacastrum L. for edibility and bioremediation of saline soils

Frontiers in Plant Science
Sesuvium portulacastrum L. is a flowering succulent halophyte in the ice plant family Aizoaceae. There are various ecotypes distributed in sandy coastlines and salty marshlands in tropical and subtropical regions with the common name of sea purslane ...

Polyphenism Through RNA Chemical Modifications

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Polyphenism, the capacity of a single genotype to produce discrete phenotypes in response to environmental cues, has long served as a model for understanding developmental plasticity. While classical studies have highlighted hormonal signalling and transcription‐factor‐driven gene regulatory networks that mediate these environmentally induced ...

What the Dying are Saying to the Living: Mixed Conspecific Alarm Cues Reverse Competitive Hierarchies by Reshaping Genotype‐Specific Life Histories

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study demonstrates that the complexity of intraspecific alarm cues—specifically, whether they are from a single genetic source or a mixture—acts as a critical environmental filter. While genotype‐specific cues trigger a canonical adaptive “life‐history switch,” mixed cues induce a state of chronic stress, leading to genotype‐specific reprogramming

Predator egg‐induced non‐consumptive effects suppress spider mite survival and reproductive performance

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9343-9351, September 2026.
Increasing predation intensity of predatory mite significantly reduced spider mite fitness in terms of shorter mother longevity, lower mother fecundity, longer offspring development, lower offspring survival, and lower population growth. Abstract BACKGROUND Predators suppress pest populations not only through direct consumption but also via non ...

Determination of ecdysteroids during the moult cycle of adult Artemia

, 1988
Ecdysteroids were studied during the moult cycle of male and female adult Artemia (Crustacea, Branchiopoda) from a Great Salt Lake population. Concentrations of ecdysteroids were measured in whole body extracts using RP-HPLC-RIA.

An Update on Advancement in Genomics Resources for Spiny Lobster Aquaculture Development

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid advancement of high‐throughput sequencing technologies has transformed aquaculture genomics, enabling unprecedented insights into the biology and improvement of non‐model aquatic species. Among crustaceans, lobsters represent one of the most commercially valuable yet genomically underexplored taxa. This review synthesises the current

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Root Extract of Gomphrena vaga Mart.: Metabolomic Insights Into Nanoparticle Formation and Antimicrobial Activity

Nano Select, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study presents the green synthesis of ultrasmall silver nanoparticles using Gomphrena vaga Mart. root extract. The nanoparticles synthesized were stable and showed good broad‐spectrum antibacterial activity against Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria in initial studies.

The Parasitoid Wasp Glyptapanteles porthetriae Induces a Photoperiod‐Dependent Diapause‐Like State in Its Potential Overwintering Host Lasiocampa quercus

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 896-907, August 2026.
We evaluated Lasiocampa quercus as an overwintering host for the koinobiont larval endoparasitoid Glyptapanteles porthetriae by exposing parasitized larvae to different environmental conditions and comparing parasitoid development with that in the primary host Lymantria dispar.

Genomic Predictors of Diapause Polymorphism in the Bark Beetle Ips typographus With Implications for Voltinism Potential and Outbreak Dynamics

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 16, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Diapause polymorphisms shape insect life cycles, affecting their responses to seasonal environmental fluctuations. In the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus, diapause phenotypes, classified as facultative or obligate, significantly impact voltinism and thus outbreak potential, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying this trait remain ...
