Asymmetric Evolution of Antennal Cell Types Underlies a Derived Ammonia‐Sensing Logic for Ecological Adaptation in Bactrocera dorsalis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Comparative antennal single‐nucleus transcriptomics reveals cell‐type‐dependent transcriptomic divergence in Bactrocera dorsalis, with similar structural cells but divergent sensory neurons. This neuronal diversification is associated with a distinct ammonia‐sensing pathway, linking female attraction to bird‐dropping‐associated cues with nutritional ...

High Ambient Temperatures Are Associated With Reduced Foraging Capacity in an Equatorial Mammal, the Banded Mongoose (Mungos mungo)

Ecology and Evolution
Due to anthropogenic climate change, there is substantial interest in how temperature variation impacts reproduction and survival in animal populations; however, the underlying mechanisms are often poorly understood.

How information foraging styles relate to tourism demographics and behaviours [PDF]

, 2009
Scholars have investigated information search in tourism for decades and recently, the web’s role in information search. Rather than information search with a particular source, this study adds to the literature by focusing on information foraging across

Drought Stress Mediated Changes in Food Crops: Mechanisms and Remediation Strategies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a multi‐scale framework for flavonoid‐mediated drought tolerance in staple food crops, integrating ROS redox regulation, antioxidant defense, rhizosphere microbial interactions, and sustainable agronomic practices. This interdisciplinary model provides core insights to develop climate‐resilient cropping systems and enhance global ...

Foraging strategies in grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) : foraging effort and prey selection [PDF]

, 2009
Swimming speeds and prey selection of temporally captive, wild grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) were investigated in relation to prey characteristics in an experimental set-up at the Sea Mammal Research Unit (St Andrews, UK).

Feeding Behavior and Host Plant Preferences of Episyrphus balteatus‎ (DeGeer) ‎ and Ischiodon scutellaris ‎(Fabricius) ‎ in Southern Punjab, Pakistan

Kufa Journal for Agricultural Sciences
During the present study, 300 adults along with 30 larvae of Episyrphus balteatus and 212 adults along with 25 larvae of Ischiodon scutellaris were collected from 15 and 13 host plants, respectively from Bahawalpur, Southern Punjab, Pakistan. The adults

MOF‐Derived Cu‐TiO2/Alginate Micromotors for Buoyancy‐Regulated 3D Motion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, cyanobacteria‐inspired sodium alginate (SA)/Cu‐TiO2/Fe3O4 hydrogel micromotors generate and encapsulate O2 microvesicles upon light irradiation, enabling buoyancy‐mediated Z‐axis upward migration and surface enrichment at the light‐exposed water‐air surface.

Ray bioturbation rates suggest they shape estuary processes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
Bioturbation of sediments is a key ecosystem service in estuarine and marine ecosystems, and rays (superorder Batoidea: skates, stingrays, electric rays and shovelnose rays) are among the largest bioturbators, modifying their habitat through foraging and

Retrospective Grid Cells in the Medial Entorhinal Cortex Encode Past Paths During Spatial Navigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Retrospective grid cells are identified in the medial entorhinal cortex, with spatial firing patterns that become most grid‐like when activity is projected onto recently traversed locations. Their coding loses spatial precision in darkness and is disrupted during assisted movement, indicating that entorhinal representations incorporate recent path ...

Comparative foraging ecology of two broad-ranging migrants, grey plover Pluvialis Squatarola and whimbrel Numenius Phaeopus (Aves: Charadrii), in tropical and temperate latitudes of the Western Indian Ocean [PDF]

, 1994
Bibliography: leaves 186-205.A seasonal study of the nonbreeding foraging ecology of Grey Plovers and Whimbrels was undertaken at the Zwartkops estuary, South Africa, and additional data were collected from a variety of sites in tropical and south ...
