Phenotypic Variation and Genetic Purity of the Original \u27Prime-Jim®\u27 x \u27Arapaho\u27 Population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In 2013, Castro et al., produced the first linkage map for primocane-fruiting blackberries using the cross ‘Prime-Jim®’ x ‘Arapaho.’ This mapping population has been maintained since the original experiment with the hopes of conducting future studies ...

Macronutrient composition in pollen affects development and survival in wild bees

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Small carpenter bees (Ceratina calcarata) were reared on diets formulated with black poplar and dandelion pollen, while closely monitoring developmental metrics, lipid content and survival. Macronutrient analyses on both pollen types revealed dandelion pollen contained lower levels of protein, essential amino acids and several fatty acids, which ...

Influence of temperature and light on the development of moth larvae: Different response in the sister species Orthosia gothica and Orthosia cerasi

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Experimental rearing of Orthosia gothica and Orthosia cerasi larvae under four controlled climate‐chamber treatments (15°C vs. 20°C; 24h darkness vs.12h light/12h dark) to isolate temperature and light effects on development. Repeated measurements of larval body size, biomass and pupation timing to quantify how growth rates and developmental duration ...

A catalogue of aphid parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) from India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A catalogue of aphidiine parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) associated with various aphids species occurring in India was compiled. The present catalogue with 125 species under 22 genera has been further reinforced with not only all the ...

Root water uptake depth in temperate forest trees: species‐specific patterns shaped by neighbourhood and environment

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Root water uptake strategies vary among temperate tree species (European beech, Douglas fir, and Norway spruce), with beech–conifer mixtures altering water uptake depths, while site conditions and temporal dynamics further shape the contribution of different soil depths to water supply.

Restoring off‐highway vehicle trails in flood‐prone and riparian forests using balsam poplar cuttings

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Recreational off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use can cause significant disturbance to natural areas. The use of local balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.) cuttings may be a solution to supply native plant material for the restoration of flood‐prone and riparian environments.

Is Nocturnal Pollination Important for Crop Production? Experimental Evidence From Small Fruit Crops

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 147-157, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect‐mediated pollination is essential for crop production but is mainly studied considering diurnal pollinators only. Here, we use pollinator exclusion techniques to prevent either diurnal or nocturnal insect visits in small fruit crops: raspberry (Rubus idaeus), over 1 year, and red currant (Ribes rubrum) and black currant (Ribes nigrum ...

An Apple a Day Does Not Keep the Weevils Away: Enhancing Vine Weevil Monitoring With Fruit‐Based Volatiles

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 168-178, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus Fabricius; Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is an economically important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops worldwide. Despite extensive research over three decades, the development of an effective semiochemical lure to improve monitoring for this pest remains a challenge.
