Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.

Diversity of Resilin Incidence in the Insect Leg
Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 6, June 2026.Resilin incidences in the insect cuticle are commonly detected by fluorescence microscopy using the property of Resilin protein matrices to emit blue light after excitation with UV light. This indirect method produces significant background signal.

Innate immunity shapes the persistent transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors
New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.In this review, we focus on two key aspects of the virus–vector interplay: (1) persistently transmitted viruses utilize host factors to overcome transmission barriers; and (2) molecular recognition activates antiviral immunity and subsequent viral counter‐defense. Understanding these interactions offers critical insights for developing novel strategies

Swarms of brown planthopper migrate into the lower Yangtze River Valley under strong western Pacific subtropical highs [PDF]
, 2017 Windborne migration of insects is significantly influenced by meteorological factors and phenomena, such as seasonal atmospheric circulation. Large‐scale movement of air provides the background for all weather and climate events.

The Pathogenesis‐Related Protein 4b Induced by Rice Stripe Virus Enhances Host's Antiviral Defence
Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.OsPR4b is induced by RSV to inhibit viral infection via regulating RNA metabolism and cell wall reinforcement, while its knockdown modulates NAC/MYB/ERF/WRKY family genes and enhances viral accumulation. ABSTRACT Rice stripe virus (RSV) causes rice stripe disease, which poses a serious threat to rice production.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3777-3802, June 2026.ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (
