Effect of oxygen and nanoparticles on human skin and colon cells exposed to synchrotron‐based X‐ray FLASH beams

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
Most cancer patients will be treated by radiotherapy, and recent findings suggest that delivering radiation at `FLASH' ultra‐high dose rates reduces damage to healthy tissues while still damaging the tumour. This project experimentally validates the reduced healthy tissue damage of FLASH radiotherapy on cells using synchrotron‐based beams, which will ...

Structural insights into urocanate reductase using room‐temperature X‐ray crystallography

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
The active‐site dynamics of the microbial enzyme urocanate reductase were revealed by room‐temperature X‐ray crystallography.Urocanate reductase (UrdA) is a bacterial enzyme that converts urocanic acid to imidazole propionate. Its catalytic residue Arg411 undergoes a large conformational change in the substrate‐bound versus product‐bound states.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...

A preventive strategy for the control of aphids in sweet pepper using lacewings and micrococcinelid beetles

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids pose a serious risk to horticultural crops. Current biocontrol strategies often fail due to the poor establishment of natural enemies when aphids are scarce. We evaluated the potential of two aphidophagous predators, Micromus variegatus and Scymnus interruptus, to be used as preventive biocontrol agents, released before aphid infestation.

From the predator to the prey: a case study of the vulnerability of Harmonia axyridis to aggressive competitors

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The level of aggressiveness of an individual is a factor that shapes intraguild predation (IGP) interactions. In Nabis americoferus, high aggressiveness leads to an increase in attack rate and IGP against Harmonia axyridis. Moreover, the absence of extraguild prey seems to exacerbate IGP. In docile N.

Spectral response of guava leaves under infestation by Costalimaita ferruginea (coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Coccinellidae (Coleoptera), Miridae (Hemiptera), Hemerobiidae (Neuroptera), Pentatomidae (Hemiptera), Anystidae (Acari), Erythraeidae (Acari) and spiders (Araneidae, Oxyopidae and Salticidae) fed on the invasive paropsine leaf beetles in Marlborough, New Zealand.
