Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?
Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

The Galling Truth: Limited Knowledge of Gall-Associated Volatiles in Multitrophic Interactions
Galls are the product of enclosed internal herbivory where the gall maker induces a plant structure within which the herbivores complete their development.

Based on ethnographic research at Rūm Orthodox Christian monasteries in Lebanon, the article studies scenes of Islam at the monastery as they intersect with anxious public debates on, and anthropological theorizations of, sectarianism and ‘Muslim–Christian’ relations in the Mashriq.

The successful parasitisation of a plant by a phytophagous insect is dependent on the delivery of effector molecules into the host. Sedentary gall forming insects, such as grape phylloxera (Daktulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch, Phylloxeridae), secrete ...

Chromosome gigantism and auxin deconjugation underpin gall induction in a horned gall aphid
Insect galls are extended phenotypes built through sustained reprogramming of host development, yet the genomic innovations and effector mechanisms that enable this process remain poorly resolved. Here we generated chromosome-level genomes for the horned gall aphid Schlechtendalia chinensis and its host tree Rhus chinensis, and integrated these ...

‘From the Fields Into the Bars’: The Story of Israel's First Transgender Novel, The Cut (1977)
ABSTRACT In 1977, an Israeli transgender woman, Judy Spotheim, published an autobiographical novel entitled The Cut. It describes the emergence of a trans community in the commercial‐sex areas of Tel Aviv‐Jaffa, hoping to humanise trans women (coccinelles). This article is the first to study the novel and present a biography of Spotheim.

Root-knot nematodes (RKNs; Meloidogyne spp.) induce feeding cells (giant cells; GCs) inside a pseudo-organ (gall) from still unknown root cells. Understanding GCs ontogeny is essential to the basic knowledge of RKN–plant interaction and to discover novel

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.
