Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids
New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 212-224, March 2026.We developed and field‐validated a fully automated trap for Cydia pomonella monitoring, combining a camera with a YOLOv8 object‐detection model for remote insect identification. In controlled laboratory validation, the model showed strong performance (precision 0.77, recall 0.83), with moderate reductions under field conditions. Across six experiments,

Resource gradients create energy trade‐offs in the inducible defense response of Paramecium aurelia
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Ecological communities are structured by inter‐ and intraspecific interactions. The stability of communities is governed by the strength and number of species interactions. Therefore, mechanisms that act to decrease the interaction strength between species are thought to stabilize communities.

Kairomones - important substances in interspecific communication in vertebrates: a review [PDF]
Veterinární medicína, 2013 Interspecies chemical communication is widespread among many groups of organisms, including vertebrates. Kairomones belong to a group of intensively researched substances, represent means for interspecific chemical communication in animals and bring benefit to the acceptor of the chemical signal.
