Urban peatlands can harbour diverse insect communities but depend on appropriate habitat management
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Urban peatlands can support high insect diversity, including endangered species and peat bog specialists. Flower diversity boosts endangered species, while succession cover reduces overall insect richness—but bog condition and urbanization showed no major effects.

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.A small heat‐shock protein (HSP16) previously reported as insect‐derived in Bemisia tabaci actually originates from a fungal species of the genus Wallemia. BLAST, genome survey and phylogenetic analyses support the fungal origin and clarify persistent misattribution in the literature.

Emerging experimental and bioinformatic approaches in RNA interference‐based pest control research
Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.Double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) visualization, RNA‐induced silencing complex (RISC)‐bound sRNA‐seq and RNA degradomics allow investigating dsRNA uptake and processing, guide small interfering RNA selection and RISC‐mediated target mRNA cleavages. Transcriptomic and proteomic profiles of genome‐wide responses to dsRNA, including off‐target and compensatory ...

Development of a bio-inspired vision system for mobile micro-robots [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper, we present a new bio-inspired vision system for mobile micro-robots. The processing method takes inspiration from vision of locusts in detecting the fast approaching objects.

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article engages with Ching‐Kwan Lee's (2025) idea that the post‐1997 Hong Kong protests represent a series of decolonization efforts, stemming from British colonial rule and now from the Chinese ‘neo‐colonial’ regime. Instead of focusing on Hong Kong natives, however, this article presents mainland Chinese immigrants (MCIs) who live in ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Legume plants can interact with nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) simultaneously, forming a tripartite symbiotic association. Co‐inoculation studies performed on a variety of legumes have shown that rhizobia and AMF influence each other when they co‐occur in tripartite association and affect host plant ...

School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between pre‐service elementary teachers' (PSETs) self‐efficacy in equitable science teaching and the demographic characteristics of their field placement settings. While extensive research exists on fostering PSETs' general science teaching self‐efficacy, there is limited understanding of how field ...

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...
