Paving the Way for Plant‐Based Bioproduction of (Z)‐13‐Octadecenoic Moth Pheromone Compounds

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sex pheromones are eco‐friendly agents to control pest insects. Yet, the cost of synthetic pheromone production has restricted their use essentially to high value crops. Plant‐based bioproduction of pheromone compounds offers a promising and sustainable alternative, opening up for the deployment of pheromone‐mediated pest control also in row ...

The influence of pupal colour on diapause and post‐diapause success in the swallowtail butterfly Papilio machaon

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
The swallowtail butterfly Papilio machaon has a brown‐ and green‐coloured morph, with the brown being more common in the diapausing generation. The darker colouration of brown pupae did not confer advantages for thermoregulation when developing, but they did have lower diapause metabolic rates.

Mixed‐vertebrate pollination traits and pollinators of Haageocereus acranthus (Cactaceae) in a lomas desert ecosystem of coastal Peru

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
In a lomas desert ecosystem of coastal Peru, the columnar cactus Haageocereus acranthus shows traits and interactions consistent with a mixed‐vertebrate pollination system (hummingbirds and bats), with no detectable differences between flower colour morphotypes in either traits or interactions.

Fusarium verticillioides seed inoculation modifies maize cell wall responses to subsequent Sesamia nonagrioides infestation

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Prior seed inoculation with Fusarium verticillioides altered the maize cell wall response to Sesamia nonagrioides attack. The combined biotic interaction promoted specific changes in lignin composition and hydroxycinnamate accumulation, suggesting that stress history modulates inducible structural defences.

Drivers of invertebrate community assembly during ecosystem restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Ecosystems are complex multi‐trophic systems, and successful restoration needs to consider the mechanisms that underpin the reestablishment of biotic interactions. Critical to supporting this is improved understanding of the ecological processes that govern community assembly.
