Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 2839-2873, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Garlic‐Derived Behavioural Deterrents: Diallyl Disulfide and TrpA1‐Mediated Suppression of Insect Reproduction

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.
Garlic‐derived diallyl disulfide acts as a behavioural deterrent that suppresses insect mating and oviposition through sensory pathways. The compound is detected through gustatory mechanisms involving the transient receptor potential A1 (TrpA1) channel and neural responses.

Modelling the phenology of the grapevine leafhopper Erasmoneura vulnerata

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 12, Page 11061-11071, December 2026.
This study developed and validated a phenological population dynamics model for Erasmoneura vulnerata, integrating field monitoring and literature data to reproduce observed seasonal patterns across multiple sites. Abstract BACKGROUND Erasmoneura vulnerata (Fitch) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is an invasive Nearctic leafhopper that has become a pest of ...

Effects of non‐host traces on behavioural responses of an egg parasitoid to substrate‐borne semiochemicals in a multi‐herbivore scenario

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 1081-1092, December 2026.
In open arena assays, the response of the egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis to substrate‐borne semiochemicals left by the host Nezara viridula was affected by the non‐host Spodoptera littoralis. Non‐host larval traces reduced T. basalis residence time spent on walking traces from gravid N. viridula females but did not affect responses to walking traces

Geographical proliferation of ongoing novel host use by the herbivorous ladybird beetle Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

Entomological Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, December 2026.
The geographical extent of occurrence of the Solanaceae‐feeding Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata on the novel fabaceous host Centrosema molle and the ability of larvae from several beetle populations to develop on C. molle were investigated to depict the incipient phase in the speciation continuum of herbivorous ladybird beetles.

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 613-636, December 2026.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Herbivory‐Induced Stomatal Opening Triggers the Dispersal of an Invasive Insect Herbivore

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 62, 9 November 2026.
The invasive leafminer Phthorimaea absoluta uniquely manipulates plant defenses by inducing stomatal opening in tomato. This response, mediated by the stomatal regulator IQM1, enhances the release of the repellent volatile benzaldehyde. This volatile triggers the dispersal of adult moths, facilitates colonization of new hosts, and leads to rapid ...
