Phylogenomic insights into the origin of the Norton grape
Challenges in viticulture such as disease resistance have renewed interest in underutilized cultivars. The Norton grape, one of the earliest popular North American grape cultivars, holds the potential to produce exceptional wine while being resistant to pests and disease. Yet, the ancestry of the Norton grape is controversial.

Abstract This review provides a synthesis of the available knowledge on Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging cocoa pest in northern South America. This moth was first described in 1995 in Panama, and its proliferation across the Amazon basin is currently threatening the production of cocoa in the region and may endanger the sector's sustainability. Hence,

INSECT LIFE AND LETTERS: THE STUDIES OF HANNS HEINZ EWERS AND OTTO AND ROSE HECHT
ABSTRACT This article argues that vast histories of war and displacement in the twentieth century are connected to the small and almost unnoticeable lives of insects, and that philology has much to gain from paying attention to insect worlds. We examine two case studies: the work of the German entomologist Otto Hecht and his wife, Rose Caro Hecht, and ...

Rthoptera: Standardised insect bioacoustics in R
Abstract Almost 100 years after the dawn of insect bioacoustics, freely available and robust analysis tools and protocols are still needed. We introduce Rthoptera, an open‐source R package designed for robust analysis of insect acoustic signals. It delivers accurate temporal and spectral measurements, along with intuitive visualisations, through a ...

Sequential testing of complementary hypotheses about population density
Abstract Making inferences about population density is paramount in ecology and pest management for decision‐makers who often seek to determine how a population compares to a pre‐established static or dynamic threshold through sampling or monitoring. Sequential data analysis is appealing for monitoring and decision making as it is more cost‐efficient ...

Application of a correction factor in the estimate of the trapping success of pest rodents
The effect of adding a correction factor in the formula used to estimate the trapping success of rodents, as well as the duration of the period of sampling (1, 2 or 3 days) and the effect of considering rodents captured as a single species or by ...
