Different trophic positions among social vespid species revealed by stable isotopes
The social vespid wasps are common insect predators and several species behave in unison in the same biotopes. It is commonly accepted that social wasps are mainly opportunistic generalist predators without differences in prey selection and hence they ...

[001]‐oriented Sb2Se3 film with improved crystallinity and adjusted composition is achieved via a new thermal treatment approach consisting of preliminary annealing of the Sb layer before its selenization. The findings of this work demonstrate enhanced charge carriers' transportation, a stable performance, and an improvement of H2 generation from ...

Cadmium armors the Cd hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii against aphid attack
The cadmium (Cd) hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii has been identified to have great ability to accumulate >100 ppm (dry weight) of Cd in its aboveground biomass. However, little attention has been paid to the possibility that S.

Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Finite element approach to trap-insect model [PDF]
The trap-insect model considered in this presentation comprises a system of two advection-diffusion-reaction equations. We develop finite element approximation of the solution of the model in order to produce accurate numerical simulations using a non ...

Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...
