Pest Management Science, EarlyView.This graphical abstract illustrates how quantitative resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans in canola is experimentally estimated through multi‐environment replicated trials measuring crown canker severity. Genotype, environment and pathogen sources feed into phenotyping, followed by variance partitioning using mixed models and beta regression to ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that Brassica napus lines with Sinapis alba introgressions enhanced resistance against Phyllotreta cruciferae, resulting in reduced feeding damage and improved seedling physiological performance. The introgressed lines showed strong potential as genetic resources for developing more resilient and sustainable canola varieties ...

Alternative seed trait strategies are linked to a trade‐off between spatial and temporal dispersal
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Seed dispersal allows plants to seek favourable conditions or spread the risk of unfavourable conditions through space and time. While theory predicts a trade‐off between spatial and temporal dispersal, empirical tests have been stymied by the difficulty of measuring ...

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Insect Science, EarlyView.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.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...
