Performance of Fall Armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda Reared on Various Horticultural Crops
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 309-320, April 2026.The developmental performance and reproductive success of the Australian population of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were evaluated on five horticultural crops under laboratory conditions. Sweetcorn and bean supported rapid development, lower mortality, and higher fecundity (good performance); whereas capsicum, strawberry, and okra resulted in ...

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Predicting the distance between an individual's release point into a new environment and their subsequent location (‘displacement’) could be useful during biological ‘introduction’ events (e.g., invasions/translocations) because variation in displacement could lead to spatially‐structured ecological and evolutionary effects, as well as ...

A Multi-Species TaqMan PCR Assay for the Identification of Asian Gypsy Moths (Lymantria spp.) and Other Invasive Lymantriines of Biosecurity Concern to North America. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Preventing the introduction and establishment of forest invasive alien species (FIAS) such as the Asian gypsy moth (AGM) is a high-priority goal for countries with extensive forest resources such as Canada.

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.Climate change has rapidly expanded and shifted suitable climate conditions for eight major forest pests across North America, especially toward northern and higher elevation areas. Host exposure and overlap among pests are increasing, raising ecological and economic risks, and signaling accelerating future impacts under continued warming.

Two orders of wall‐to‐wall geographic data
Area, Volume 58, Issue 1, March 2026.Short Abstract The use of the term ‘wall‐to‐wall’ to describe geographically extensive data without any singular definition in the remote sensing and geographically related analysis. This work presents an assessment of the application of the term in the scientific literature. Abstract From personal observations of recent published works, the term “wall‐

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract We present the first reference genome of the highly heterozygous autotetraploid Allium porrum (leek). Combining long‐read sequencing with single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)‐array screening of two experimental F1 populations, we generated a genetic map with 11,429 SNP markers across eight linkage groups and a chromosome‐scale assembly of A ...

Experiments with Lymantria dispar larvae do not support the idea of physiological adjustment to host individuals by insect herbivores [PDF]
Web Ecology, 2013 All organisms have to cope with spatial and temporal heterogeneity of the environment. At short temporal and small spatial scales, organisms may respond by behavioural or physiological mechanisms.

From leprosy to ground zero: Imagining futures in a world of elimination
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, Volume 39, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Achieving a target of zero—zero disease, zero disability, and zero discrimination—has become the dominant focus of campaigns to control or eliminate diseases, from HIV/AIDS to malaria to leprosy. Given the historical failure of most eradication programs over the last century, such teleological imaginings of disease‐free futures might seem ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 In insects, flight and sophisticated olfactory systems go hand in hand and are essential to survival and evolutionary success. Females of many Lepidopteran species have secondarily lost their flight ability, which may lead to changes in the olfactory ...
