Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 2674-2706, December 2025.Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.Genomic regions potentially associated with resistance against imidacloprid in the Colorado potato beetle were identified here using bulked segregant analysis. Candidate genes were then narrowed down using the functional annotation and expression analysis.

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications
Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1495-1523, October 2025.The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2025.The insect‐microbe interplay fulfills a key ecological role involving the degradation of ligninocellulose biomass. This is coordinated by the secretion of different kinds of proteins, of which ligninolytic enzymes, such as laccases (Lacs), are of prime importance.
