Synchrony strategies of six gall inducers that share a superhost, Eugenia copacabanensis (Myrtaceae)
Galling insects on the superhost Eugenia copacabanensis have developed different life cycle strategies to synchronize with plant seasonal changes and avoid competition for resources. Abstract The life cycles of galling insects are synchronized with their host plant phenology, allowing them to better explore available resources.

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

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

Using genome‐skimming, we provide a robust and comprehensive phylogeny of the Gerridae. Our data support the monophyly of all subfamilies except paraphyletic Gerrinae. Non‐monophyly was found for Gerrini, Metrobatini and Trepobatini. Additionally, we reaffirm the non‐monophyly of the genera Aquarius and Tenagogonus, both part of the Gerrinae.

The Resilience Status of the Sesame Plant Against Weeds and Insects
Sesame is overrated as a resilient crop due to its ability to withstand unfavourable conditions either through replacement of damaged tissues or by its profuse seed production. This article offers an examination of weed as a stressor of neglected field‐grown sesame.
