ABSTRACT Objectives The Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) is the most widely used instrument to measure the subjective impact of oral conditions. This study reports the shortening and psychometric evaluation of an ultra‐short version (OHIP‐7A) from the OHIP‐14 in a large national Australian population.

A New Experimental Setup to Study the Olfactory Behaviour of Trichogramma Egg Parasitoids
We developed an experimental setup to assess odor‐induced egg‐laying behavior in tiny egg‐parasitoid wasps. This Y‐shaped olfactometer, coupled with an AI‐based image‐recognition model, automatically quantifies egg parasitism by Trichogramma wasps. Olfactory‐driven egg‐laying preferences were analyzed using Bayesian inference.

This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the chemical and behavioural ecology of the Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is essential for developing effective integrated pest management (IPM) strategies in South American soybean production. This study investigated the courtship behaviour and diel periodicity of sex pheromone emission.

Genetic diversity of strawberry‐infecting Colletotrichum isolates. Summary Rapid adaptation in fungal plant pathogens is often attributed to sexual recombination, yet many important pathogens are largely clonal. We investigated how genetic and phenotypic diversity arises in the predominantly asexual fungus Colletotrichum nymphaeae, the main cause of ...

Identification of nematodes volatile sex pheromone and the molecular basis of sex pheromone perception [PDF]
Our lab studies the molecular basis of chemosensory behaviors. Sexually mature C. remanei females produce an attractant detectable by conspecific adult males and its relative C. elegans. The volatile attractant acts in a sex-, stage- and species-specific

Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae) attracts nocturnal scarab beetles with an unusual floral scent—the beetles pollinate the flower as they feed on pollen and nectar and mate on the inflorescences. Abstract Pollination by beetles has evolved multiple times in flowering plants but with relatively few plant species adapted specifically to pollination by ...

Abstract Independent effects of maternal obesogenic diets on offspring outcomes are acknowledged, but data on paternal and combined maternal–paternal obesity remain limited. We investigated independent and combined maternal–paternal effects of an obesogenic (OB) high‐fat, high‐sugar diet on offspring outcomes.
