Induced resistance of plants reduces their negative soil‐legacy effects on natives but not on naturalized aliens

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Plant resistance induced during soil conditioning altered subsequent soil‐legacy effects on plant growth. While conditioned soils reduced the performance of both native and naturalized alien plants, resistance induction largely eliminated the growth disadvantage of native species.

Climatic niche position predicts population dynamics in Mediterranean shrubs after drought

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climatic conditions closer to the species' climatic niche centroid generally resulted in higher population growth in two Mediterranean shrubs, but demographic responses differed between species and were further influenced by drought‐induced vegetation die‐off.

Absorption and Effects of Patch Test Preparations of Hydroperoxides of Limonene and Hydroperoxides of Linalool in Human Ex Vivo Skin

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, Volume 95, Issue 2, Page 159-168, August 2026.
This study mimics clinical patch testing for the diagnosis of allergic contact dermatitis, by application of patch test preparations of fragrance terpenes to ex vivo human skin samples. The study investigates the penetration of linalool hydroperoxide and limonene hydroperoxide in skin, alongside an analysis of the lipid‐modifying effects of the patch ...

A New Experimental Setup to Study the Olfactory Behaviour of Trichogramma Egg Parasitoids

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 968-974, August 2026.
We developed an experimental setup to assess odor‐induced egg‐laying behavior in tiny egg‐parasitoid wasps. This Y‐shaped olfactometer, coupled with an AI‐based image‐recognition model, automatically quantifies egg parasitism by Trichogramma wasps. Olfactory‐driven egg‐laying preferences were analyzed using Bayesian inference.

Impacts of a Sweet Orange Essential Oil–Based Biopesticide on Exorista larvarum, a Parasitoid Tachinid Fly With a Dual Role

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 933-941, August 2026.
Lethal (mortality) and sublethal (fecundity, fertility) effects of the biopesticide Prev‐Am Plus (containing ~6% sweet orange essential oil) were assessed on the tachinid fly Exorista larvarum. Mated females were exposed via contact and oral routes across five concentrations (0.25%–20%) using protocols adapted from Apis mellifera.

Cross‐stage single‐cell and spatial metabolome analyses reveal periderm specialization and tanshinone biosynthesis in Salvia miltiorrhiza roots

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1267-1282, August 2026.
Biosynthesis and accumulation of tanshinones in the periderm of Salvia miltiorrhiza during secondary root growth. Summary Perennial herbs develop long‐lived roots that undergo repeated cycles of secondary growth, during which the periderm functions as a protective barrier and a major site of specialized metabolite accumulation.

Organ‐specific terpenoid responses in Tanacetum vulgare are chemotype‐dependent

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1437-1453, August 2026.
Common tansy varieties defend differently: some boost root chemicals against soil pests, while others release stronger leaf scents against aphids. Abstract Specialized metabolites such as terpenoids are known to mediate plant defence mechanisms. However, how terpenoid diversity governs inducible chemistry across organs remains poorly understood.

Rapid disruption of pollination function by the invasive plant Impatiens glandulifera

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1481-1490, August 2026.
Invasion by Impatiens glandulifera rapidly disrupts pollination of the native plant Stachys sylvatica by altering pollen transport by shared bumblebee pollinators. A short‐term field introduction revealed a dramatic decline in conspecific pollen deposition within 4 days, showing that pollination function can collapse quickly following invasion, even ...
