Host tree preference and performance of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) on Scots pine

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Ips typographus showed lower reproductive output in an occasional host (Pinus sylvestris) under laboratory conditions, and did not prefer its main host (Picea abies) over P. sylvestris in two‐choice bioassays. Abstract BACKGROUND The Eurasian spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus, is one of the most serious pests of Norway spruce (NS, Picea abies), with ...

Unlocking Energy Potential: Exploiting Anionic Redox Activity in Na‐Based Layered Oxides

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Anionic redox in Na‐based layered oxide cathodes unlocks additional capacity beyond conventional transition‐metal redox limits, enabling high‐energy sodium‐ion batteries. This review elucidates coupled cationicanionic redox mechanisms across P2‐, O3‐, and related structural phases, while critically addressing key challenges such as voltage hysteresis ...

A taxonomic revision of the Eurasian Myrmica salina species complex (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesSoil Organisms, 2011
The Myrmica salina species complex (MSS complex) is distributed in steppes and other xerothermous open habitats of the Mediterranean and south Temperate zone from Iberia to E Kazakhstan, in latitudes between 37° in Central Asia and 56°N in S Sweden. The

Chalcogen‐Directed Dual‐Heterointerfaced Bi2Te3/BiSx in N‐Doped Carbon Nanofibers for Sodium Storage

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Dual crystalline/amorphous heterointerfaces of Bi2Te3/BiSx encapsulated in N‐doped porous carbon nanofibers are engineered as an advanced anode for sodium‐ion batteries. The synergistic heterointerfaces and Te vacancies enable fast charge transport, buffer volume expansion, and ensure structural integrity. The anode delivers exceptional rate capability

Innate preference for host-odor blends modulates degree of anthropophagy of Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

open access: yes
In field studies, Anopheles gambiae Giles sensu stricto obtains most blood meals from humans, whereas Anopheles quadriannulatus Theobald bites predominantly bovids. We investigated whether host odors modulate the host preference of these mosquito species.

Impact of general anaesthesia on immune response to first rabies vaccination in seronegative domestic cats

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Despite common concerns, evidence that anaesthesia impairs vaccine efficacy remains limited. This study assessed the impact of general anaesthesia on the immune response to rabies vaccination in cats. Methods Thirty‐five healthy female cats (6–12 months old) undergoing elective spaying were enrolled.

Beyond abundance: the impact of sampling design on effective population size estimates in capercaillie

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Effective population size (Ne) is a useful parameter to evaluate the long‐term viability of populations. While obtaining enough field data from wild populations to estimate Ne directly is challenging, molecular techniques applied to non‐invasive samples provide an appealing alternative.
