A defensive symbiont and a plant virus confer direct and discrete phenotypes to a cereal aphid in a context‐dependent manner

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Different BYDV‐PAV isolates exert contrasting effects on aphid fitness, including reproduction and winged production. Different BYDV‐PAV isolates have contrasting effects on aphid dispersal patterns. Aphid feeding behaviour is modulated by the presence of endosymbionts and plant viruses.

Thermal acclimation and environment drive field dispersal patterns of adult Mediterranean fruit flies

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Ambient temperature significantly increased Mediterranean fruit fly recapture rates, demonstrating a strong effect of immediate environmental conditions on field dispersal. Female recaptures were 2.6‐fold higher in orchards containing host plants, whereas male recaptures were unaffected by host presence.

Under the cover of darkness: Foraging behaviour increases on cloudy, new moon nights in a pelagic seabird

Ibis, EarlyView.
While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...

Developing and Implementation of Decision Support System (DSS) for the Control of Olive Fruit Fly, Bactrocera Oleae, in Mediterranean Olive Orchards

Agronomy, 2019
Modern agriculture requires technology to give precise measures about relevant parameters such as pest control. Here, we developed a decision support system (DSS) based on semi-automatic pest monitoring for managing the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae ...

Dietary selectivity mediates niche overlap and interspecific competition in a reedbed warbler community in southern Europe

Ibis, EarlyView.
Sympatric species are expected to use resources differently along one or more ecological dimensions. This can be complex when there is partial separation along multiple dimensions, such as where bird species exhibit similarities in habitat use and diet.

Genres of Paradoxical IS Theorising: Of Chaos–Puzzles and Spear–Shields

Information Systems Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paradox is a powerful lens for theorising information systems (IS) phenomena. However, as scholars apply the term to fundamentally different phenomena, ‘paradox’ risks dilution. Much confusion stems from conflating two concepts under the same English label ‘paradox’: chaos–puzzles (seemingly impossible ideas, aligned with the Chinese term ‘bei

Evaluation of the impact of olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae [Gmelin, 1790], Diptera: Tephritidae) infestation on olive grove in Biskra (Algeria)

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica
Olive production is important to Algeria's economy and ecology, its cultivation has expanded significantly in recent years in Biskra region, increasing both area and production, with olive varieties that adapt well to local conditions.
