Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.In two‐choice laboratory bioassays, food‐deprived and CO2‐stimulated stable flies were offered paired landing platforms that were baited or not (control) with conspecific flies. The presence of conspecifics prompted the attraction and landing of foraging stable flies.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.High clothianidin concentrations prevented colonization, while bifenthrin showed a non‐significant trend of reduced fly abundance, indicating both insecticides may suppress blow fly activity on treated carcasses. Adult emergence rates were unaffected, with no statistically significant differences observed across insecticide treatments, suggesting ...

Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

Orbis Litterarum, EarlyView.Abstract This article presents the concept “constructive alienation” as a response to the oversaturation of apocalyptic environmental fiction that has contributed to deep‐seated desensitization toward the climate crisis, resulting in crisis of imagination (Ghosh, The Great Derangement: Climate change and the unthinkable, 2016; Solnit, If you win the ...

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.This study evaluated the photodegradation of commercial insect repellents containing DEET and IR‐3535 under UV‐A and UV‐B irradiation using Raman spectroscopy. Pure DEET and IR‐3535 showed intrinsic photostability, whereas DEET diluted in ethanol and a commercial DEET‐based formulation exhibited significant spectral changes after UV exposure.
