The evolution of sensitive periods beyond early ontogeny: Bridging theory and data

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sensitive periods, in which experiences have a large impact on phenotypic development, are most common early in ontogeny. Yet, they may also occur at later ontogenetic stages, such as adolescence.

Olfactory neurogenesis plays different parts at successive stages of life, implications for mental health

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits
The olfactory bulb is a unique site of continuous neurogenesis, primarily generating inhibitory interneurons, a process that begins at birth and extends through infancy and adulthood.

Diet acts on sexual behavior development in a male moth

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Drastic changes are observed during sexual maturation characterized by the reproductive system development concomitantly to the sexual behavior ontogenesis. These modifications are under the control of internal and external factors such as food. Knowing that sexual maturation requires considerable energetic investment, diet has been shown to affect ...

Pheromone stereochemical specificity in the biology of the bean beetle Acanthoscelides obtectus

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract The dried bean beetle, Acanthoscelides obtectus, is a serious pest of legume crops, particularly Phaseolus vulgaris beans, and its management is challenging due to the beetle's cryptic larval stage. The major male‐produced pheromone of A. obtectus is methyl (E,R)‐2,4,5‐tetradecatrienoate, crucial for female attraction, with the (S)‐enantiomer ...
