What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...

Assessing the integration of social marketing principles in ivory demand management interventions in China and Southeast Asia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Consumer demand for ivory perpetuates the unsustainable and illegal killing of African elephants and other wildlife species. Interventions that aim to change consumer behavior are increasingly recognized as a crucial element of demand management. However, poor design and implementation have limited their effectiveness.

Integrating ecological feedbacks across scales and levels of organization

Ecography, EarlyView.
In ecosystems, species interact in various ways with other species, and with their local environment. In addition, ecosystems are coupled in space by diverse types of flows. From these links connecting different ecological entities can emerge circular pathways of indirect effects: feedback loops.

Beauveria Bassiana Triggers Soybean Systemic Resistance and Causes Sublethal Effects in Spodoptera frugiperda

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The interaction of soybean plant and the endophytic microorganism Beauveria bassiana was evaluated by inoculating a single trifoliate leaf. The effects of this inoculation on the herbivory, larval development, and life traits of Spodoptera frugiperda were measured.

Design, Training, and Field Validation of a YOLOv8‐Based Automated Trap for Remote Detection of Codling Moth, Cydia pomonella

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We developed and field‐validated a fully automated trap for Cydia pomonella monitoring, combining a camera with a YOLOv8 object‐detection model for remote insect identification. In controlled laboratory validation, the model showed strong performance (precision 0.77, recall 0.83), with moderate reductions under field conditions. Across six experiments,

Performance of Fall Armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda Reared on Various Horticultural Crops

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The developmental performance and reproductive success of the Australian population of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were evaluated on five horticultural crops under laboratory conditions. Sweetcorn and bean supported rapid development, lower mortality, and higher fecundity (good performance); whereas capsicum, strawberry, and okra resulted in ...
