Hairy Roadblock: Stem Trichomes Impede Herbivore Movement in a Species and Instar‐Dependent Manner

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 728-735, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants have evolved to deploy a vast set of defence mechanisms against insect herbivores, including physical barriers like leaf trichomes with pre and post ingestive effects. Yet, the role of stem trichomes in plant‐herbivore interactions, particularly mobility dynamics, is poorly understood.

Artificial light at night and invasive signal crayfish alter aquatic‐terrestrial food webs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1740-1754, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Resource flows across aquatic‐terrestrial boundaries are increasingly affected by multiple stressors, such as artificial light at night (ALAN) and aquatic invasive species, which can alter the availability of resources for consumers.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1109-1122, June 2026.
As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...

Antimetabolic effects of plant proteins on homopteran insect pests [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Homopteran insect pests can cause severe economical damage to crop plants by both direct physical means and as vectors of plant viral diseases. They are notoriously difficult insects to control by conventional methods, primarily due to their ability to ...

Host plant richness and abundance drive populations of a super‐generalist xylem‐feeding insect

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 570-579, June 2026.
Philaenus spumarius abundance was assessed across 93 sites and four habitat types (olive groves, vineyards, meadows, and field margins) within eight heterogeneous agricultural landscapes over the year. In spring, nymph abundance was positively associated with herbaceous plant species richness and vegetation cover, highlighting that even super ...

The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4139-4158, June 2026.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and
