Polarization vision and the physiological basis for trichromatic vision in Philaenus spumarius: Understanding host‐seeking behaviour in insect vectors for Xylella fastidiosa control

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 2, Page 503-519, March 2026.
We investigated the role of vision in host‐seeking behaviour by Philaenus spumarius, the main European vector of Xylella fastidiosa, through an integrated anatomical, optical, physiological, and behavioural study. Our data highlight that the spittlebug uses visual cues, including polarized light, which may aid in detecting the polarized reflections ...

Epigenetics in Captivity: Restoring Wild Phenotypes in Captive‐Reared Salmonids

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Captive rearing is a common practice for the stocking, conservation, and supplementation of fish species worldwide, but captive‐reared fish can exhibit altered phenotypes leading to reduced fitness in nature compared to wild conspecifics. In salmonids, certain studies have found limited genetic differentiation between wild and captive‐reared ...

Spice It Up: The Impact of Spiciness and Arousal on Cultured Meat Consumption

open access: yesInternational Journal of Consumer Studies, Volume 50, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Cultured meat is an emerging, sustainable protein source; however, it falls short in several aspects, including perceived naturalness, nutritional value, and sensory appeal. Building upon the theory of benign masochism, the research proposes that the sensory imagery of spicy flavour can heighten emotional arousal and, in turn, drive ...
