Evolutionary Patterns of the Genes Involved in the Integrity and Segregation of Chromosomes in Sawflies (Hymenoptera: Symphyta)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study identifies and characterizes the genes encoding cohesin and condensin complexes across Symphytan superfamilies, revealing their structural and functional roles with conserved motifs in maintaining genome stability. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that SMC genes originated from ancient duplication events, with notable gene loss (e.g., CAPG2 ...

Pollinator Dependency and Regional Climate Affect Crop Yield Development Under Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study addresses the question if and how climate change, with rising temperatures and increasing risks of drought events, has affected the yield of entomophilous, that is, insect‐pollinator‐dependent, crops in the past decades. We found weaker yield increases with warming.

Improving Biological Control Outcomes: A New Zealand Perspective

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 3, June 2026.
This short communication outlines the imperative for advances in classical biological control, often based on molecular technologies, to accentuate the efficacy of impact while being cognisant of the need for biological control safety.

Diversity of Resilin Incidence in the Insect Leg

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 6, June 2026.
Resilin incidences in the insect cuticle are commonly detected by fluorescence microscopy using the property of Resilin protein matrices to emit blue light after excitation with UV light. This indirect method produces significant background signal.

Hotspots on cold mountains: Hot flowers as pollinator refuges in mountain ecosystems

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1850-1861, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mountain environments constrain the activity of ectothermic insects. Yet, fine‐scale thermal refuges can buffer these thermal constraints, helping insects remain active in cold conditions.
