A Parasitoid of Aphids Manipulates Host Mummification Site, With Effects on Survival but Not Hyperparasitism

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Parasitoid wasps can manipulate host behavior to enhance their own survival. Here we find that a parasitoid of aphids, Aphelinus chaonia, induces aphids to move to the leaf axil or leave the plant prior to pupation. This seems to have no effect on hyperparasitism, but mummy location may nevertheless impact parasitoid survival.

Physicochemical property and in vivo prebiotic function of α‐(1 → 2) and α‐(1 → 3)‐branched dextran derived from Leuconostoc citreum KD3

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 39-49, February 2026.
Abstract Background We isolated lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from Japanese traditional fermented foods and vegetables, and screened for exopolysaccharide (EPS)‐producing strains. The Leuconostoc citreum KD3 was isolated as a strain that produces an α‐glucan (KD3‐dextran) with α‐(1 → 6)‐linked main chain with a considerable amount of α‐(1 → 2) branches ...

Precise Evaluation of Transpiration Patterns in Relation to Grain Yield Under Drought Stress in Faba Bean

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is a key crop for sustainable agriculture in temperate cropping systems due to its nitrogen‐fixing ability and high protein content, but its productivity is increasingly threatened by drought stress driven by climate change.

Plant diversification impact on the oviposition response of a predatory bug in a laboratory set‐up

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 128-134, February 2026.
Orius majusculus laid nearly twice as many eggs in cages with two different crop species compared with a single species. Depending on crop species, O. majusculus utilised different plant structures for oviposition. Crop diversification supports reproduction, and thus, is likely to have a positive effect on O.

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 163-194, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

Wheat root exudates suppress faba bean Fusarium wilt disease

open access: yesFood and Energy Security
Continuous cultivation of faba beans often results in a high occurrence of Fusarium wilt. Nevertheless, this issue can be successfully managed through wheat‐faba bean intercropping.
