Dual role of benzoxazinoids in plant response to combined drought stress and aphid feeding

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Benzoxazinoids enhance wheat's defence against aphids and drought stress by triggering callose accumulation, and MYB transcription factors regulate wheat stress response. Abstract Plants produce specialized metabolites like benzoxazinoids (BXDs) to survive adverse environmental conditions and deter herbivory, while insects have evolved mechanisms to ...

Descriptron: Artificial intelligence for automating taxonomic species descriptions with a user‐friendly software package

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, EarlyView.
Descriptron is a GUI that integrates AI to automate species descriptions. Descriptron provides geometric morphometrics and colour patterns. Images and morphometrics are used as prompts for Vision‐Language Model descriptions. Abstract Recent advances in Computer Vision, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Vision Transformers (ViTs) and Large Language ...

Phylogenomic insights into helmet evolution in neotropical treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae): Conserved morphological complexity across five subfamilies

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, EarlyView.
Phylogenomic analyses of 2539 nuclear loci reveal robust relationships among major Membracidae lineages. Helmet shape complexity shows strong phylogenetic conservatism across genera, tribes and subfamilies. Pronotal modularity evolves across lineages, highlighting the developmental diversity of treehopper morphologies. Abstract We utilized genomic data
