Acoustic indices are not useful for biodiversity research
Abstract Biodiversity assessment using passive acoustic monitoring has historically been challenging due to the limited availability of multi‐species acoustic detectors. In this context, acoustic indices were introduced as an alternative way to represent species diversity in acoustic datasets.

Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

Top‐Down and Bottom‐Up Effects on Insect Herbivores Under Global Change—A Meta‐Analysis
We conducted a meta‐analysis of 246 experimental papers and 18 global change stressors to evaluate the effect of global change on insect herbivores both directly and indirectly through bottom‐up and top‐down effects. We found that while bottom‐up effects could either be strengthened or weakened, top‐down effects were mainly strengthened, and most ...

ABSTRACT Agricultural sustainability faces serious challenges from population growth, climate change and ecological degradation. Genetic modification (GM) technology can be regarded as a precise extension of the Green Revolution, aiming to balance yield enhancement with ecological integrity through biotechnology. To systematically examine global trend,
