Eight Years of Citizen Science Reveal Taxonomic Confusion Patterns and Dynamic Participation in the Monitoring of Vespa velutina in Spain

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax) is a successful invasive species in Europe, where its monitoring is partially reliant on citizen science (CS) initiatives. While CS is a powerful tool for early detection, taxonomic confusion and fluctuating participant engagement can limit its effectiveness.

Spatial Distribution of Paysandisia archon (Burmeister) (Lepidoptera: Castniidae) Infestation on Palms in the City of Pesaro

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paysandisia archon is a South American castniid moth unintentionally introduced in Europe through the international plant trade and first reported there in the early 2000s. Its larvae cause severe damage to palms (Arecaceae) by feeding on the apical meristem and excavating inside the trunk, leading to structural instability and eventual plant ...

Evaluating Bottom‐Up Effects of Cruciferous Cultivars to Optimise Mass‐Rearing and Fitness of the Parasitoid Diadegma insulare

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Plutellidae: Lepidoptera), is one of the major pests of cruciferous vegetables. To control this notorious pest, the caterpillar parasitoid Diadegma insulare (Cresson) (Ichneumonidae: Hymenoptera) is the most used biocontrol agent. Efficient mass‐rearing of D.

Hormesis without evolution: plastic compensatory responses to herbicide drift in Oxalis stricta, a common weed of agriculture

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual framework linking herbicide dose–response to plant fitness outcomes under sublethal exposure. Summary Herbicide drift exposes nontarget plants to sublethal agrochemical doses, yet its ecological and evolutionary consequences remain poorly understood.

Rhizobacterial Modulation of Maize Defense Alters Herbivore Performance and Parasitoid Behavior

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The association between plants and beneficial soil microorganisms can profoundly influence aboveground trophic interactions, yet these effects are often context‐dependent. Although plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are increasingly used in maize production, little is known about how these microorganisms affect maize defenses against ...

Sharing of 4‐hydroxy‐3‐(methylthio)benzaldehyde as a pollination semiochemical among distantly related sexually deceptive orchids

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that Spiculaea ciliata attracts male Thynnoturneria abspiculus through a single semiochemical, identified as 4‐hydroxy‐3‐(methylthio)benzaldehyde, emitted from its labellum. This compound alone elicited sexual behaviours in male wasps comparable to those elicited by whole floral extracts and attracted wasps when presented on a synthetic ...

Hypoxia and the cytoskeleton

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the activation of hypoxia‐sensitive pathways, the influence of hypoxia and associated pathways on the cytoskeleton, and the impact of these on disease progression. Abstract A highly‐regulated and dynamic cytoskeleton is vital for functional cellular physiology and the maintenance of homeostasis.
