Exploring the Nutraceutical Potential of Achillea millefolium L.: Phytochemical Composition, Biological Activities, and Industrial Applications

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Achillea millefolium Linn., commonly known as yarrow, is an extraordinary medicinal plant. A. millefolium has broad therapeutic potential due to its phytochemistry and essential oil composition. It possesses pharmacological properties, including antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, liver‐protective, antimicrobial, and gastroprotective effects,

Exploring pest population dynamics using the economic entomology modeling activity

open access: yesNatural Sciences Education, Volume 55, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Motivated by the increasing demand for data‐driven pest management approaches, the economic entomology modeling activity (EEMA), an Excel‐based interactive teaching tool, aims to introduce students to the complexities of modeling ecological factors in applied systems.

Ecological Characteristics of Stream Reaches With and Without Low‐Tech Process‐Based Restoration in a Wildfire‐Affected Catchment

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 1022-1037, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Low‐tech process‐based stream restoration (LTPBR) is increasingly implemented following wildfire, underscoring the need to evaluate restoration outcomes in burned catchments. To help address this need, we measured abiotic and biotic characteristics of a reach that received LTPBR, an untreated reach, and a reach with relict beaver activity that

Duck Tales: Spatio‐temporal dynamics of habitat use and prey relationships of a diving duck and its implication for conservation management

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Shows the spatiotemporal predictability of wintering eiders based on monitoring data from 1993–2023 with intertidal and subtidal Marine Protected Areas (yellow and green, respectively), and a depiction of the current mismatch between eider hotspots and protection measures. Abstract Migratory animals often follow predictable spatiotemporal distributions

Vulnerable Juniper Populations Show Adaptive Potential in the Face of a Highly Damaging Invasive Tree Pathogen

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive tree pathogens pose a significant and increasing threat to natural ecosystems. The outcome of these novel host‐pathogen interactions depends largely on the presence and nature of resistance in host populations, which will govern the host's potential to respond through natural selection and adaptation to the new threat.

Phlogopite Mica Under Acidic and Alkaline Conditions: Reactivity and Silicate Gel Formation

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Alkali‐activated materials (AAMs) produced using industrial residues offer a sustainable alternative to Portland cement, the production of which contributes nearly 8% of global CO2 emissions. However, commercial sodium silicate, commonly used as an activator, remains costly and energy‐intensive to produce, motivating the development of ...

Evaluating Sawdust as a Bulking Agent to Enhance Black Soldier Fly Larvae (Hermetia illucens) Performance and Survival in Potato Peels

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 5, Page 682-689, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The rearing of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) offers a sustainable approach for producing high‐protein larvae for animal feed, contributing to waste reduction and nutrient recovery. While BSFL‐rearing is well studied, the role of non‐nutritive bulking agents such as sawdust remains unclear. Sawdust was added on top of the base substrate at 0%

Superworm‐Derived Protein Hydrolysate: Functional Properties and Activity Following Enzymatic Processing

open access: yesJournal of Food Process Engineering, Volume 49, Issue 6, June 2026.
Protein hydrolysate was successfully developed from defatted Zophobas morio flour. The pepsin hydrolysate exhibited superior properties compared to Brauzyn. The hydrolysis process with pepsin achieved a notable hydrolysis degree and yield. Pepsin hydrolysate from Z. morio showed high protein content and solubility.

Citizen science reveals host‐switching in louse flies and keds (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) during a period of anthropogenic change

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 305-322, June 2026.
A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...
