, 2004 1. Pollen is considered to be an important dietary component for many species of flower-feeding herbivores. Its influence on oviposition site selection by the pollen beetle Meligethes aeneus, and on the development of its larvae was investigated. 2.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Flowers can communicate reproductive status to pollinators through visual cues. In Saxifraga fortunei, pistils often changed from yellow to red after pollination, and hoverflies and honeybees preferentially visited flowers with yellow pistils. This pattern suggests that a post‐pollination color shift confined to the pistil can reduce revisits to ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

When alien plants become health hazards: An applied study on toxic and allergenic risks in Italy
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Alien plants are often studied for their ecological harm, but their risks to human and animal health remain poorly documented. This study provides the first comprehensive catalogue of poisonous and allergenic alien plants in Italy, identifying which species are dangerous, where they grow and who is most at risk—from children in city parks to pets and ...

Evaluation of European Pollen Reanalysis
The European Pollen Reanalysis for alder, birch, and olive airborne pollen was released at the end of 2023, with only technical validation of the procedure presented in the paper accompanying the dataset.

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artificial protein design enables the creation of stable scaffolds beyond those evolved in nature. Incorporation of native functional motifs into de novo scaffolds provides a promising strategy to mimic natural interactions while altering structural frameworks.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Genotype and cropping system influenced oilseed rape ecophysiological traits, including glucosinolate compounds (glucoraphanin, glucobrassicanapin, and butyl‐glucosinolates) and biomass, which were linked to Psylliodes chrysocephala larval infestation, with varietal effects stronger than faba bean companion planting.

The search for the best airborne pollen monitoring locations
In Europe a quarter of the adult population and a third of all children suffer from allergenic airborne pollen thereby decreasing the quality of life. In order to ease the pollen induced symptoms mitigation measures can be applied.

Three-dimensional Illustration and Installation of Pollen Spores Represented through Ceramics
, 2022 1 Broadside. 48"W x 36"HPollination in angiosperms is crucial to many food systtems and sustainability in ecosystems. Variation of shapes and surface textures serve a purpose of tending to specific flowering plant structures, such as the stigma.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.We screened a panel of 98 Brassicaceae genotypes (97 Brassica napus and 1 Sinapis alba) for cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) larval antibiosis. We found limited evidence for antibiosis across B. napus but consistent antibiosis in S. alba. Brassicaceae relatives may therefore better inform resistance traits for breeding.
