An RNA interference biopesticide reduces reproduction of the honey bee parasite Varroa destructor by down‐regulating embryo development pathways

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2694-2707, March 2026.
Varroa destructor mites exposed to dsRNA specific in sequence to a V. destructor calmodulin gene significantly effected gene expression of adult female mites sampled 5 days after entering a honey bee brood cell to reproduce. Significantly down‐regulated genes included Calmodulin and were associated with calcium ion binding and embryo developmental ...

High temperatures and poor habitat reduce nestling condition and survival in a tropical songbird

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our study shows that improving habitat quality is critical for riparian wildlife as the climate warms and that supporting long‐term studies is important for detecting cryptic effects of anthropogenic threats. The Australian monsoonal savanna is projected to warm by 3.5°C by 2090, and our models predict an associated average of 2.2% decrease in purple ...

The Effect of Background Colour on Behaviour and Development of Golden Mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) Tadpoles

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 204-215, March 2026.
This study examined how background colour influences behaviour and development in golden mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) tadpoles across ontogeny. Tadpoles preferred darker backgrounds, and this preference got less strong with increasing age. Individuals reared in darker conditions were less active but did not differ in growth rate and shelter use when ...

Apparent Flexibility of Fatty Acid Metabolism in Shredders Depends on Terrigenous Organic Matter Type

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Headwater streams receive large amounts of terrestrial organic matter (tOM) such as leaves from a dense riparian matrix, forming a critical link between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Terrestrial OM rarely provides essential macronutrients such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and microbial colonisation of tOM is an important ...

Porphyrin‐Linked Antifungal Nanocarrier Promotes Plant Growth via UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8‐Mediated Light Signalling Activation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1518-1532, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Nanocarriers can improve pesticide delivery efficiency and reduce phytotoxicity, thereby supporting sustainable strategies for crop protection. Given this potential, it is essential to investigate their effects on crop physiology and development.

Updated peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance clodinafop (variant evaluated clodinafop‐propargyl)

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The conclusions of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authorities of the rapporteur Member State, Greece, and co‐rapporteur Member State, Germany, for the pesticide active substance clodinafop‐propargyl are reported. The context of the peer review was

Enhanced diagnostic accuracy of high‐grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in postmenopausal women through PAX1/JAM3 methylation analysis

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 4, Page 1116-1125, 15 February 2026.
What's new? Cervical cancer screening is challenging in postmenopausal women, partly due to physiological changes that reduce the sensitivity of cytology and colposcopy. This study evaluated the diagnostic performance of combined PAX1 and JAM3 gene methylation testing in a large cohort of postmenopausal women undergoing colposcopy. Compared to cytology
