Impacts of organic farming on the nitrogen balance in agricultural land of OECD countries: Evidence from panel ARDL approach

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract The growing concern for health and the environment among individuals is anticipated to boost the demand for organic foods. However, there is a research gap in expanding field experiment results for the impact of organic farming to the real world.

Patterns of morphological evolution in the raptorial appendages of praying mantises

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study traces changes in the morphology of the forelegs across fossil and extant dictyopterans to understand their evolution from cursorial limbs to the raptorial morphologies of mantodeans. Two new mantodean specimens preserved in amber are described herein.

Phytoplasma infection renders cranberries more susceptible to above‐ and belowground insect herbivores

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration summarizing the effects of phytoplasma infection on the performance and feeding behavior of above‐ and belowground insect herbivores as well as its effects on shoot and root traits in cranberries. The “+” symbol indicates a positive effect, while the “–” symbol indicates a negative effect. Abstract While phytoplasma infections in

Foraging by predatory ants: A review

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on ecological and behavioral characteristics of foraging in ants showing the wide diversity of cases. Most ants can feed on sugary substances, but some ground‐nesting species are strict predators. Except army ants during the nomadic phase, they are central‐place foragers that can recruit nestmates when necessary. They prey mostly on

Differences in within‐plant oviposition preferences and immature survival between Orius predators and the importance of spatial availability of prey

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Orius predators oviposit endophytically, and plant characteristics play an important role in their oviposition choices. In this study, we show that oviposition preferences differ between species, and that these differences may correlate with juvenile performance.
