Maintaining egg freshness in the absence of refrigeration: The potential of zero‐energy cooling pots

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 8, Page 301-308, August 2026.
Abstract Background Egg storage in regions with unreliable electricity is challenging, leading to rapid quality deterioration and postharvest losses. This study evaluated the efficacy of a Zero‐Energy Cooling (ZEC) pot, an evaporative cooling technology, for preserving table egg quality in comparison to conventional refrigeration and ambient storage ...

Disrupting the herd: Recreational boating alters group dispersion within beluga whale herds

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
Recreational boating in beluga habitat remains poorly documented. Using land‐based observations in the Saguenay Fjord (Quebec, Canada), we show that increasing recreational boat numbers are associated with a higher probability of changes in beluga herd dispersion, suggesting behavioral disturbance and the need to integrate recreational boating into ...

Landscape configuration and soil properties shape ant‐mediated seed dispersal in tropical dry forest agricultural landscapes

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1476-1487, August 2026.
We show that ant‐mediated seed dispersal components respond differently to local soil conditions and landscape structure in Caatinga agricultural mosaics. Low‐intensity rainfed croplands maintained or enhanced seed removal compared to natural remnants, highlighting how small‐scale agriculture can sustain key ecological processes in human‐modified dry ...

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 908-921, August 2026.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry
