Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8459-8467, September 2026.Host‐associated volatiles mediate host location in Cephalonomia tarsalis, with faecal odours from fourth‐instar larvae, particularly 1‐pentadecene, attracting females and supporting the biological control of stored‐product pest beetles. Abstract BACKGROUND Understanding how parasitoids locate their hosts is essential for improving the effectiveness of ...

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management
Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2026.Quasielastic neutron scattering disentangles BH4− and NH2− reorientations from Li+ diffusion through the solid framework and captures long‐range BH4− translation upon melting. These findings establish a unified molecular picture of localized and diffusive motions, clarifying the dynamic landscape of ionic transport in Li4(BH4)(NH2)3.

The Potential for Pest Management Using Plant‐Derived Signaling Compounds
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.Plant‐derived signaling compounds mediate ecological interactions among plants, herbivores, their natural enemies, and neighboring plants. This graphical summary highlights three approaches to leveraging such ecological interactions for environmentally benign pest management: (1) Recruitment of natural enemies: Using herbivory‐induced plant volatiles ...

Integrating Cultural Evolution Into Ecological Dynamics
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.Cultural evolution in humans and non‐human animals enables rapid behavioral change through social learning, with culturally transmitted behaviors reshaping population dynamics, species interactions, and community structure. Integrating cultural processes into ecology reveals fast feedbacks among ecological, biological, and cultural evolutionary ...

Optimising the greenhouse cultivation of Lotus japonicus under dimmable LED
Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 2, September 2026.Optimisation of growth conditions for Lotus japonicus ecotypes MG‐20 and Gifu in climate‐controlled greenhouses indicated that L. japonicus produced less flowers and pods under the fluctuating light of mobile LED (location = 5) than under stationary LED (location = 9) and the effect of the light source increased under low ambient light conditions in ...
