Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Cotesia glomerata polydnavirus and venom, either alone or in combination, affect colonisation by members of the arthropod community in a natural field setting. Plants damaged by P. brassicae injected with both polydnavirus and venom were colonised more often by Mamestra brassicae caterpillars, Myzus persicae aphids and aphid parasitoids compared to ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.The parasitoid‐associated polydnavirus CgPDV, but not venom alone, significantly increases the attractiveness of Pieris brassicae caterpillars to the hyperparasitoid Baryscapus galactopus at close range. Naturally parasitized caterpillars elicit stronger hyperparasitoid attraction than any injection treatment, indicating that additional factors beyond ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.There was a positive relationship between adult preference and larval performance. However, the strength of the relationship ranged from weak to strong depending on the measure of adult preference. The adult beetle showed substantial flexibility in host plant selection and equal performance across most thistle hosts.

Behavioural Diversity of Fishes: Concepts, Drivers and Its Role in Conservation and Management
Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human activity has altered nearly all ecosystems on Earth, contributing to substantial biodiversity loss across taxonomic, genetic and functional dimensions, from the intraspecific to the ecosystem scale. Yet some components of biodiversity remain hidden or underappreciated, including behavioural diversity.

CD36‐mediated lipid rewiring in the metabolic adaptation of tumour ecosystems
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Nutrient deprivation drives a lipid‐centric shift in tumour metabolic symbiosis and signalling network. CD36 functions as a bidirectional bridge, transferring fatty acids from stromal donors (adipocytes, CAFs) to the ecosystem tumour‐ and microenvironment‐dependently.

An Updated Ecology of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) at Sea
Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon have had a key role in European and North American oceans and human societies. Salmon are exploited and observed in rivers and along coasts, but there has always been great interest in knowing where salmon are going when they are at sea.

Timing pattern of Common Cuckoo parasitism and its relation to host nest attendance
Ibis, EarlyView.Classical works show the adaptive importance of precise timing of egg‐laying in brood parasitic Common Cuckoos Cuculus canorus to ensure sufficient incubation time and successful hatching. Laying in the late afternoon has been suggested to increase the chance of secretive parasitism and therefore escape the aggressive mobbing by hosts, yet this ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Grassland fragmentation effects on cavity‐nesting Hymenoptera are habitat‐specific. Isolated sand steppe fragments are associated with higher brood‐cell abundance. In loess steppes, higher flower frequency increases bee brood‐cell production and parasitoid activity. Abstract The global decline in insects threatens ecosystem functioning, but the drivers

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Urban community gardens showed a high wild bee diversity with 168 recorded species, representing roughly 30% of Germany's wild bees, including threatened species like Osmia mitis and Coelioxys lanceolata. Floral resources, not nesting resources or habitat availability, were the main drivers for wild bee taxonomic and functional diversity.
