Unexpected Evolutionary Divergence of Tachykinin‐Positive Neurons Innervating the Central Complex in Hexapods

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 3, March 2026.
The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.

Investigating the Genetic Underpinnings of Ongoing Fall Armyworm (FAW) Range Expansion in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We generated new genomic resources for the invasion front of fall armyworm in Oceania, confirming that the new invasions conform to the population structure initially identified in Benin. We also identified SNVs associated with insecticide resistance that should be a focus of future tracking of the invasion front and established populations.

Seasonal Dietary Changes Drive Adaptive Responses in the Gut Microbiota and Function of Myotis chinensis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This research clarifies the synergistic adaptive interactions between seasonal foraging strategies and gut microbiome composition in Chinese chiropterans. Microbial diversity and community structure exhibit seasonal fluctuations, with functional metabolic pathways aligning to host reproductive cycles and hibernation physiology, thereby substantiating ...

Impact of Simulated Insect Defoliation and Timing of Injury on Cabbage Yield in Minnesota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In 1992 and 1994, field studies were done to assess the tolerance of transplanted cabbage to simulated insect defoliation and to determine if the defoliation level and growth stage at which defoliation begins influences final yield.

Phenological shifts and increases in voltinism within a moth community over a century of anthropogenic change

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In temperate ecosystems, warming temperatures can advance spring phenology, extend autumn phenology, disrupt dormancy regulation, result in phenological mismatch across taxa, and even lead to increases in the number of generations per year (i.e., increases in voltinism).

Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus) Pollination in New Zealand: A Preliminary Report on Flower Visitors, Natural Pollen Deposition, and Artificial Pollination

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Dragon fruit (pitaya; Hylocereus undatus) is a promising, new high‐value crop in New Zealand. The large nocturnal flowers open for one night and close early in the morning the following day over a 3‐ to 6‐month long flowering period. In dragon fruit's native range, hawkmoths and bats are key nocturnal pollinators, and honey bees visit flowers during ...
