Distracted by a plant: movement of two invasive pentatomids, Halyomorpha halys and Nezara viridula, between companion plants and berry crops

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Adult Halyomorpha halys and Nezara viridula rapidly moved between berry crops and companion plants. Habitat use varied across environmental contexts, demonstrating that companion plantings function as dynamic elements in diversified cropping systems. Abstract BACKGROUND The brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys and the southern green stink bug ...

Development and deployment of a risk assessment index as a decision‐support tool for managing whitefly‐transmitted viruses affecting squash

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A data‐driven framework identified planting date and row cover as dominant drivers of whitefly‐transmitted virus complex (WTVC) risk in squash. Integration into the SquashRx mobile application enables real‐time risk assessment and supports improved decision‐making for integrated pest management.

Time‐series digital camera photos combined with machine learning algorithms can realize accurate observation of flowering phenology

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Intelligent approaches are required to extract valuable phenological information from time‐series digital camera photos. In this research, we employed YOLO‐based object detection and semantic segmentation models to identify flowers and flower pixels, acquire flower count and flower cover data, and extract phenophases such as first, peak, and end ...

Flowering Phenology and Mating System of Calanthe sieboldii

open access: yesHorticulturae
The pollination characteristics and flowering phenology of Calanthe sieboldii were evaluated to elucidate its reproductive characteristics and breeding systems. Field observations and artificial pollination experiments were conducted to study the pollination biology in Xuancheng City, Anhui Province.

Flowering Phenology in Taiwan: Effects of Life Forms, Phylogeny, and Environmental Factors

open access: yes, 2023
Temporal and spatial variation in flowering phenology not only influences the population dynamics of plants but also initiates trophic cascades, altering ecosystem functions.

Retrospective image analysis for long‐term demography using Google Earth imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that high‐resolution Google Earth imagery, combined with minimal field validation, enables retrospective tracking of individual invasive plants. The image shows one of the monitored individuals of Opuntia sp. in Greece. Our approach reveals long‐term demographic patterns, recruitment dynamics, and spatial expansion without continuous ...

Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (

Precipitation‐mediated asymmetric fitness consequences of nectar robbing in distylous Primula florindae

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowers with deep corollas are frequently associated with nectar robbing, a behaviour that often reduces pollen transfer and seed production. Robbing scars, however, may further affect plant reproductive success through rainwater entry into corolla tubes.

Leveraging machine learning and citizen science data to describe flowering phenology across South Africa

open access: yesPlants, People, Planet
Societal Impact Statement Recent shifts in flowering times are an index of, and a response to, human driven climate change. However, most information on these flowering changes is heavily skewed to the northern hemisphere.
