Blocking Honeybee Preference for Neonicotinoids by Interfering With Dopamine Signaling
Honeybees (Apis mellifera) paradoxically prefer nectar containing the harmful neonicotinoid thiamethoxam. This preference is associated with transient brain dopamine elevation during proboscis extension reflex (PER) responses and active feeding, and is reduced by the dopamine receptor antagonist fluphenazine.

Steps Toward Vitrification and Banking of Coral Larvae Using Field‐Friendly Cryomesh Technology
Cryomesh enables a low‐tech cryopreservation method, adding a valuable option to the coral reef conservation toolkit. The approach reveals how size, toxicity, and developmental stage govern larval survival, while modeling links cooling and rewarming rates to a theoretical upper volume limit.

Utility of a multi-faceted approach in determining the habitat use of endangered euryhaline elasmobranchs in a remote region of northern Australia [PDF]
The overriding aim of this thesis was to explore the habitat use of the critically endangered freshwater sawfish (Pristis microdon) and northern river shark (Glyphis garricki) in the remote Kimberley region of northern Western Australia. This information

Living Electronics: Microbial Metabolism as Batteries, Resistors, and Capacitors
Three microorganisms are assigned the three elementary roles of a circuit on one sheet of paper. Dormant Bacillus subtilis spores germinate to switch the power source on; a photosynthetic Synechocystis biofilm sets resistance by the color and intensity of light; and a respiring Shewanella oneidensis biofilm stores charge. Together they form a printable

ABSTRACT Collective agri‐environmental schemes offer a promising approach to improve biodiversity promotion in agriculture by providing landscape connectivity. However, how to design these schemes to foster participation in the presence of farmers' heterogeneous preferences and perceived transaction costs remains an open question.
