Dose‐dependent efficacy of a novel dsRNA‐based solution containing vadescana for Varroa destructor control

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 9974-9983, October 2026.
Vadescana is a novel dsRNA‐based product that targets Varroa fecundity. Vadescana applied at 4 g/brood box in one application was most effective at reducing Varroa populations for up to 18 weeks. Abstract BACKGROUND A novel dsRNA‐based product, containing a molecule called vadescana, interferes with Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman) fecundity ...

Eusocial bee species are exposed to different toxic element profiles despite foraging within the same landscape

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 912-925, October 2026.
Bombus terrestris and Apis mellifera colonies sharing the same landscape (<50 m from each other) collected pollen with significantly different heavy metal concentrations. B. terrestris‐collected pollen contained 2–7× higher concentrations of arsenic, chromium, cobalt, lead and tin than A. mellifera‐collected pollen.

In Situ Integrated Titanium Oxide Synaptic Phototransistor Enabling Multimodal Plasticity and Noise‐Robust Selective Attention

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 18, 18 September 2026.
An in situ integrated TiO2/SiOx/Al2O3 synaptic phototransistor couples ultraviolet and electrical stimuli within a scalable, CMOS‐compatible oxide stack. Multimodal plasticity, spike‐timing‐dependent learning, and bee‐inspired associative conditioning are achieved through trap‐mediated temporal dynamics.

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2346-2367, September 2026.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Evolution of the α‐Glucosidase Gene Family in Apoidea

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study traces the origin of the α‐glucosidase gene family in bees back to approximately 140 million years ago, revealing that its evolutionary history closely aligns with the rise of angiosperms and coevolution. Furthermore, by identifying the core members Hbg1–3 and 28 key functional sites driven by positive selection, the study systematically ...

Phytochemical Profiling and Antibacterial Activity of Moroccan Monofloral Honeys Against Multidrug‐Resistant Uropathogens: In Vitro, ADMET, Molecular Docking, and Molecular Dynamics Approaches

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Multidrug‐resistant bacteria infections require alternative antimicrobial strategies. This study evaluated the phenolic composition, antibacterial activity, and in silico properties of four Moroccan monofloral honeys. Carob honey showed the greatest phenolic diversity, whereas citrus honey contained the lowest polyphenolic content.

Smart detection of juice adulteration: An approach based on ion mobility spectrometry and machine learning

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 12, Page 7406-7415, September 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Fruit juice quality is regulated by European Union legislation; however, adulteration by adding cheaper alternatives, such as white grape juice, remains a prevalent issue. This practice constitutes economic fraud and poses health risks to consumers, including potential allergic reactions to the adulterant.
