The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

Spatial and seasonal patterns of potential orchard pollinators across a Lake Ontario gradient

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Potential pollinator captures varied by season, trap height and distance from Lake Ontario, indicating that flower visitors were not evenly distributed during apple bloom. Several common bee genera, including Lasioglossum, Agapostemon, Andrena and Apis, overlapped more closely with apple bloom than the dominant retained fly genus, Toxomerus.

Behavioural responses of peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), to entomopathogenic fungi infected conspecifics

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Myzus persicae showed no detectable behavioural response to Beauveria bassiana‐colonised agar alone. Aphids spent significantly more time in odour fields containing EPF‐infected conspecifics than healthy aphids, agar or blank air. EPF infection may alter host‐associated odours, suggesting pathogen‐mediated cues could influence aphid behaviour and ...

Impact of food scarcity on the foraging dynamics of Eriopis connexa (Germar, 1824) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) Impacto da escassez de alimentos na dinâmica de forrageamento de Eriopis connexa (Germar, 1824) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Starvation duration alters predatory behaviour of Eriopis connexa, affecting aphid consumption and survival dynamics. Increased starvation enhances attack rate, accelerating prey depletion without substantially affecting handling time. Functional response remains type II, with stronger predation under prolonged food deprivation.

Endogenous coalition formation in policy debates

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Political actors form coalitions around their joint normative beliefs in order to influence the policy process on contentious issues such as climate change or population aging. Policy process theory maintains that learning within and across coalitions is a central predictor of policy change but has yet to explain how policy learning works ...
