Ozone‐driven degradation of sex pheromone in Plutella xylostella: Implications for reproductive communication and mating success

Insect Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we examined whether realistic ozone concentrations can interfere with sexual communication in the insect pest Plutella xylostella, the diamondback moth. Ozone exposure caused a degradation of pheromone components, leading to significant changes in blend composition and component ratios.

Availability of a Keystone Plant Resource Reduces Niche Overlap and Drives Distinct Species‐Specific Changes in Niche Breadth Among Small Rodents

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We investigated how three rodent species respond to the seasonal availability of Araucaria angustifolia seeds. While Oligoryzomys spp. increased seed consumption and abundance during seed production, the more insectivorous Akodon paranaensis maintained a broader diet.

Divergence Linked to Possible Ecological Speciation in Blind Mole Rats: Integration of Thermal Biology and Bite Force in the Upper Galilee Blind Mole Rat (Nannospalax galili)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Basalt‐dwelling blind mole rats maintain lower body temperatures, show greater post‐digging thermal increases, and dig more efficiently than those from rendzina soils. Although metabolic rates and bite force did not differ between populations, these thermal and physiological shifts align with the greater mechanical resistance and seasonal hypoxia of ...

Spatial Patterns of Avian Stable Isotopes Reveal Ecological Impacts of Climate and Land‐Use Change

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Increased feather δ15N values with pasture coverage reveal an elevated baseline δ15N in grazing landscapes, while broader isotopic niches in farmland habitats reflect agricultural expansion's significant influence on resource use patterns of the avian community.
