Edge Effect on the Distribution of the Green Shield Bug Palomena prasina in Hazelnut Orchards, and the Role of Adjacent Habitats in Crop Colonization

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

The Acts of Eadburg: drypoint additions to Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Selden Supra 30

Early Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
In 1913, two drypoint additions were identified in Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Selden Supra 30 (SS30), an eighth‐century Southumbrian copy of the Acts of the Apostles. It was suggested that these additions, cut into the membrane of p. 47, were abbreviations of the Old English female name, Eadburg. Just over a century later, many more drypoint markings

First report in Italy of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) (Thysanoptera, Thripidae), a major threat for Sicilian horticulture and floriculture

EPPO Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract The presence of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) is reported for the first time in Italy. Prior to this finding, within Europe the pest was only known to be established in Spain. The discovery happened in a greenhouse cultivating gerberas in south‐eastern Sicily, a region recognized as Italy's primary and one of Europe's most important ...

When Similar Individuals Don't Attract: Absence of Assortative Mating by Coloration in a Damselfly With Honest Signaling

Ethology, EarlyView.
In Acanthagrion lancea damselflies, both sexes display blue ornamentation, but do they choose mates based on it? We tested whether mutual mate choice and time constraints influence ornament evolution. Blue coloration correlated with individual quality, but individuals did not choose mates based on color, and this was unaffected by time constraints over

Fisheries Trade and Blue Nutrient Flows in Pacific Island Countries

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pacific Island Countries (PICs) are located in highly productive fishing regions that supply nutrient‐rich fish to global markets. Marine fisheries are a critical source of protein and essential micronutrients for billions of people worldwide, supporting both local diets and global food security.

Comparative analysis of metabolic and functional cardiac alterations in diet‐ and genetically induced mouse models of cardiac dysfunction

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

Field‐based evidence of impaired sperm quality associated with conventional farming in two passerine birds

Ibis, EarlyView.
The detrimental effects of conventional farming on bird biodiversity are increasingly documented. Despite this, the specific impacts of both organic and conventional farming practices on bird coloration and sperm quality in natural settings remain unexplored. This study aimed to determine whether these farming practices differentially affect body mass,
