From flower buds to bolls: how cotton reproductive structures shape boll weevil development, reproduction and survival

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Female boll weevils feeding on flower buds promote reproduction regardless of their immature diet, whereas boll feeding increases lipid reserves and lifespan, revealing a nutrition‐driven trade‐off that sustains survival and reproduction in tropical boll weevil populations.

Peptidic product derived from trypsin autolysis modulates insect digestive proteases and supports plant biochemical defense

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
XXXX Abstract BACKGROUND Spodoptera frugiperda, commonly known as the fall armyworm, is a highly economically significant pest that affects various crops, resulting in substantial losses in productivity. Managing this pest primarily relies on chemical insecticides; however, the repeated development of resistance to these chemicals has rendered them ...

Smith e Keynes sobre as unidades de salário [Smith and Keynes on wage units] [PDF]

The paper analyses Adam Smith's labour commanded value theory and proceeds with a comparison between this theory and Keynes' wage units approach, demonstrating that both authors were mainly concerned with a nominal anchor to the measure of value.

Amorphous Hydrogenated Silicon Carbide Interlayers: Chemical, Optical, and Tribological Behavior for Improving Adhesion of Carbon‐Based Films to Ferrous Alloy

Surface and Interface Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diamond‐like carbon thin films have been gaining attention in the last years due to their unique properties, such as low friction coefficient and high wear resistance. However, the lack of adhesion between DLC coatings and ferrous alloys complicates their wider industrial application.

Nanoplastics Impair GnRH Neuron Migration and Neuroendocrine Function: Emerging Players in the Pathogenesis of Reproductive Disorders

Small, EarlyView.
Little is known about the effects of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS‐NPs) on gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, which control puberty onset and fertility. By applying tailored in vitro GnRH neuron models, this article shows how PS‐NPs are internalized and impact hormone secretion and cell migration, through gene expression changes. Ultimately,
