Temperature elevation broadens the dietary niche of an insect herbivore

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The realised dietary niche in Chrysomela lapponica was the narrowest at 10°C, whereas higher temperatures (15–25°C) broadened the dietary niche by increasing preference for and survival on suboptimal host plants. Elevated temperature broadened the realised dietary niche through both direct effects on beetles and indirect effects mediated by temperature‐

Beyond the breeding grounds: identifying post‐breeding staging areas, corridors and ecological niche of the Lesser Kestrel

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The post‐breeding period is a critical yet overlooked phase in the annual cycle of migratory birds, where individuals must resolve competing bioenergetic trade‐offs between recovery from breeding, moult and migratory fuelling. Using GPS data from 54 adult Lesser Kestrels Falco naumanni tracked across Spain, we analysed 76 post‐breeding tracks to ...

Genome assembly of Elcysma westwoodi provides insights into host‐plant cyanogenic glucoside detoxification and chemical defence gene evolution

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
A chromosome‐level genome of Elcysma westwoodi was assembled. The genome encodes 272 detoxification‐related genes. A single‐copy bCAS was retained for cyanide detoxification. CYP405A and CYP332A were recruited into cyanogenic defence evolution. UGT33A retained a conserved GT‐B fold and catalytic domains.
