Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

MASS REARING OF THE GREATER WAX MOTH, Galleria mellonella L. [PDF]

Zagazig Journal of Agricultural Research, 2018
This study was conducted to investigate the suitability of three suggested artificial diets prepared for mass rearing of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella L. to meet with the higher demand for mass multiplication of entomopathogenic nematodes as well as many parasitoids for insect biological control purposes.

Uncovering the Diversity of Mesostoinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae): A Glimpse Into the Australian Fauna Through a Study of Kangaroo Island

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The Mesostoinae are a poorly understood braconid subfamily with unresolved morphological challenges and a complex taxonomic history. This study provides insight into the biodiversity of this subfamily on Kangaroo Island (KI), South Australia.

Esterase Activity in the Greater Wax Moth Larvae [PDF]

, 1974
Some properties of esterases of the greater wax moth larvae, Galleria mellonela (L.), were examined and the enzymes partially purified. Several buffer systems were tried and it was found that tris buffer was most suitable.

Genome‐wide identification of olfactory receptor and odorant‐binding protein gene families and their roles in Heliothine chemosensory evolution

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 594-612, October 2026.
Genome‐wide systematic annotation identified 81 odorant receptors (ORs) and 49 odorant‐binding proteins (OBPs) in the tobacco budworm, Chloridea virescens. Phylogenetic analyses revealed chemosensory gene diversification in Heliothinae and extensive lineage‐specific duplications in C.

Advancing Thermotolerance in Beans: Integrating Physiology, Genomics, and Breeding for Climate Adaptation

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rising global temperatures increasingly threaten bean production and the food security of millions of people who depend on these protein‐rich legumes. Heat stress during the reproductive stages induces pollen sterility, flower abscission, and disruptions in source–sink relationships, resulting in yield losses of 30%–40% or more when critical ...

A New Species of Loxomerus Chaudoir (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Migadopinae) From the Subantarctic Antipodes Islands, New Zealand: Resurgence of a Flightless Beetle Following Mouse Eradication

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Loxomerus antipodes Liebherr and Marris, sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Carabidae), is described from the New Zealand subantarctic Antipodes Islands archipelago. Loxomerus antipodes, sp. nov., was considered conspecific with Loxomerus brevis Blanchard, 1853, from the Auckland Islands, but it is diagnosed from that sister taxon based on numerous anatomical ...

OLFACTORY PERCEPTION OF THE SEX ATTRACTANT PHEROMONE OF THE GREATER WAX MOTH, GALLERIA MELLONELLA L. (LEPIDOPTERA: PYRALIDAE), BY THE HONEY BEE, APIS MELLIFERA L. (HYMENOPTERA: APIDAE)1

, 1986
Electrophysiological responses of worker honey bees were recorded to a series of six to eleven carbon saturated aldehydes (100 μg dosage) including nonanal and undecanal, components of the sex attractant pheromone of the greater wax moth.

Edible Insect Allergens: An Emerging Food Safety Challenge

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
Allergic responses to edible insects arise via two main pathways: cross‐reactivity with homologous arthropod allergens and primary sensitization to edible insect proteins, both leading to IgE‐mediated immune activation. ABSTRACT Edible insects are increasingly promoted as sustainable protein sources; however, their allergenic potential remains a ...

Pollinator Associations of Rare and Endangered Epacris Species (Ericaceae) in Lutruwita/Tasmania: Implications for Conservation

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The breeding systems of Lutruwita/Tasmania's threatened Epacris taxa are poorly known. Our main objective was to determine the pollinators of several endemic species and explore for relationships between pollinators, floral morphology, flowering time and habitat. The Epacris have limited variation in floral traits and exhibit generalist floral
