Offspring Dependency Is Not Reflected in the Social Immunity of Three Burying Beetle Species
Nicrophorus pustulatus, Nicrophorus vespilloides, and Nicrophorus orbicollis are three burying beetle species that differ both in their ecology and in the dependency of their offspring on parental care. This gradient of offspring dependency might be reflected in the parents' social immunity capabilities and/or investment.

Abstract BACKGROUND Rabies continues to pose a major public health threat, causing approximately 59 000 deaths each year, especially in regions with limited resources where high costs restrict vaccine access. Safer and scalable vaccine platforms, such as virus‐like particles, are promising alternatives, but their production is highly sensitive to ...

Insights on the nutritional ecology of a nocturnal pollinating insect
Nutritional ecology examines the environmental effects on nutritional needs, food intake and foraging behaviors, and the use of nutrients ingested by animals. Among insects, Lepidoptera are often considered opportunistic foragers that visit a wide variety of available flowers, although with some preferences.
