Cytotoxic and Immunological Effects of Terpinolene and 1‐butyl‐3,4‐methylenedioxybenzene on Aedes aegypti Larvae

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 123, Issue 1, September 2026.
The terpinolene + BMDB association caused severe midgut damage, increased apoptosis, reduced proliferation, and immune suppression in Ae. aegypti larvae, indicating that sublethal effects, despite higher LC50, compromise larval recovery and represent a promising strategy for integrated vector management.

Release of multicomponent pheromones from porous fibres

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 9, Page 4777-4786, September 2026.
Abstract Surface engineering empowers a polymer exclusion net to serve dual functions: physical exclusion and pheromonal release, allowing for pest control in agricultural crops. In previous work, a net woven from porous fibres releasing simple, single‐component alarm pheromones showed promising results in field tests.

Different Effects of Induced Plant Defense on Population Densities of Specialist and Generalist Insects: An Explanation by Mathematical Modeling

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Induced defense chemicals in plants determine the community structure of different insect (herbivore) groups. In particular, specialists are endemic and generalists are non‐endemic in the wild because of the ecological roles of induced secondary metabolites.

The Origins of Fashion

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper reconceptualizes fashion as a deep‐time system of bodily communication rather than a byproduct of modern consumer societies. We define fashion as a socially transmitted system of bodily display in which patterned variation occurs within shared conventions of appearance.
