Feeding by slugs on maize imposes variable productivity costs but can induce compensatory growth under some conditions

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Slugs can challenge crop plants grown in no‐till fields. Our results confirm that higher levels of slug feeding can be detrimental to maize plants, but low levels of herbivory by slugs can unexpectedly increase plant growth and occasionally yield. Abstract BACKGROUND In contrast to herbivorous insect pests, relatively little attention has been given to

The significance of woody vegetation's nonproductive elements for the overwintering of key biocontrol agents in intensively used agricultural areas

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Nonproduction woody vegetation provides crucial overwintering habitats for spiders, enhancing biocontrol services in agricultural landscapes. Incorporating these habitats into land management supports ecosystem services and biodiversity. Abstract BACKGROUND Successful overwintering habitats are critical for the long‐term survival of biocontrol agents ...

Nrf2‐Mediated Ferroptosis Is Involved in Berberine‐Induced Alleviation of Diabetic Kidney Disease

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the most common and serious complication of diabetes mellitus. Currently, there is a lack of safe and effective preventive strategies for DKD. The study aimed to explore the preventive effects and potential mechanisms of berberine (BBR) against DKD.

Biogenic Design of the Flexible, Resilient, and Hard Mineral Protector in Door Snails

open access: yesSmall Science, EarlyView.
A calcareous door (clausilium) of door snails combines hardness for defense and flexibility for opening and closing. The biogenic design of a clausilium stalk is studied as a unique architecture balancing several properties. Internal observations reveal a double‐layered structure: a hard, dense envelope with aragonite rods and a flexible, low‐density ...
