Risk Status of Australia's Alpine and Subalpine Ecosystems

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Alpine and subalpine ecosystems are threatened by changing climate and disturbance regimes because they exist under extreme geographical and climatic conditions. Understanding the threats to and risk status of alpine and subalpine ecosystems is vital to guide their conservation, inform monitoring programs and identify the relative impact of ...

Engineering New‐to‐Nature Biological Pathways for β,γ‐Alkanediol Synthesis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
β,γ‐Alkanediols are value‐added chemicals to be used as functional solvents, biofuels, and cosmetic components. This work demonstrates a carboligation‐mediated approach for synthesis of linear chain β,γ‐alkanediols in Escherichia coli, namely, hexane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐HDO) and pentane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐PDO). The engineered E. coli cells produce 152.2 mm (17.98

The spruce bark beetle Ips typographus in a changing climate [PDF]

, 2012
Outbreaks of the Spruce bark beetle Ips typographus are often triggered by storm and drought and have destroyed millions of cubic meters of wood. It is therefore a pest insect of economic importance in Europe.

Integration of Visual and Olfactory Cues in Host Plant Identification by the Asian Longhorned Beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Some insects use host and mate cues, including odor, color, and shape, to locate and recognize their preferred hosts and mates. Previous research has shown that the Asian longicorn beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky), uses olfactory cues to ...

Sex‐Specific Control and Incomplete Matings: Sperm Removal Behavior in a Bush Cricket Species

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 194-203, March 2026.
In this study, we investigated which sex influences the duration of sperm removal behaviour (SRB) in the ornate bush cricket, Metaplastes ornatus. Female traits showed a weak effect on SRB duration, and lighter females mated more frequently. Frequent unsuccessful mating terminations shortened SRB indicating high level of sexual conflict.
