ABSTRACT Previous studies on Cydia pomonella eggs have demonstrated reliable egg adhesion to the leaves and fruits of various apple cultivars. In contrast to biological substrates, this study is focused on standardised synthetic substrates to measure egg pull‐off forces and determine adhesive strength, allowing for an unbiased comparison with other ...

ABSTRACT Insect‐derived molecular cues can prime plant defences against herbivore attack. The genes that are sensitive to priming, and how their expression changes on the scale of days, have not been fully resolved. Moreover, priming may affect interactions with insects that are not the source of the priming cue.

Treating date palm leaves with a bacterial consortium, especially when supplemented with glucose and urea, significantly degrades lignin. This process enhances nutritional value by increasing crude protein, digestibility, and metabolizable energy. The method effectively transforms this agricultural by‐product into a viable ruminant feed.

Nutritional effects on the expression of cryptic pigmentation in freshwater isopods
Cryptic pigmentation is a key phenotypic adaptation that helps many benthic invertebrates evade visual predators. However, little is known about whether and how the expression of pigmentation phenotypes that match the habitat background is influenced by the availability of nutritional resources.
