Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Insect Science, EarlyView.Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

A key role for sex chromosomes in the regulation of parthenogenesis in the brown alga Ectocarpus.
PLoS Genetics, 2019 Although evolutionary transitions from sexual to asexual reproduction are frequent in eukaryotes, the genetic bases of these shifts remain largely elusive.

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Spirodiclofen resistance levels in B. yothersi varied geographically across the Brazilian citrus belt, with higher resistance in the central region. Sublethal effects included reduced oviposition, increased non‐viable eggs and disrupted female reproduction.

The role of aquaria in the advancement of elasmobranch reproductive biology
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Public aquaria showcase aquatic life while raising awareness and educating the public on biodiversity and the need for conservation. Recently, aquaria have followed in the footsteps of zoos by taking more directed approaches in species conservation as ...

Assessing the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid, Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.We investigated the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae), an emerging pest species in Europe, by combining molecular and ecological approaches. The winter host plant was confirmed as apricot by both methods.

Phylogenetically Distant BABY BOOM Genes From Setaria italica Induce Parthenogenesis in Rice
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The combination of apomixis and hybrid production is hailed as the holy grail of agriculture for the ability of apomixis to fix heterosis of F1 hybrids in succeeding generations, thereby eliminating the need for repeated crosses to produce F1 hybrids ...

Analysis of Human Uniparental Embryonic Stem Cells Reveals New Putative Imprinted Loci
Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.To identify novel imprinted genes, parthenogenetic, androgenetic and biparental human embryonic stem cells and their differentiated neural progenitors were analysed by methylome and transcriptome profiling. This approach uncovered 12 putative novel imprinted genes, including a clustered region on chromosome 19, expanding the current catalogue of ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.In this study we measured the impact of access to sugar and hosts on the longevity and fecundity of six Trichogramma species: T. cacoeciae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. leptoparameron, T. pintoi and T. sibericum. The impact of food differed among species, but there was a general tendency of increased life expectancy and potential fecundity with sugar ...
