Deciphering organ‐specific chemical changes following insect herbivory in Populus nigra using comparative metabolomics

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 834-846, August 2025.
This study investigated the organ‐specific metabolic response of black poplar to feeding by generalist Lymantria dispar caterpillars using targeted and non‐targeted metabolomics. Abstract This study explores the chemical diversity of plant metabolites in different organs of black poplar (Populus nigra), a tree species of considerable ecological and ...

To seal a wound, caterpillars transform blood from a viscous to a viscoelastic fluid in a few seconds

open access: yesFrontiers in Soft Matter
In insects vulnerable to dehydration, the mechanistic reaction of blood after wounding is rapid. It allows insects to minimize blood loss by sealing the wound and forming primary clots that provide scaffolding for the formation of new tissue.

The developmental basis of floral nectary diversity and evolution

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 6, Page 2462-2477, June 2025.
Summary Nectar is a central bridge between angiosperms and animal mutualists. It is produced by specialized structures termed nectaries, which can be found on different plant organs. Consumption of floral nectar by pollinators and the subsequent transfer of pollen contribute to the reproductive success of both angiosperms and their pollinators.

Flying by night: Comparing nocturnal pollinator networks over time in the Colorado Rocky Mountains

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 235-246, April 2025.
High rates of species turnover and plant–pollinator interactions were observed in moth pollen‐transport networks in Colorado summer 2021; however, networks maintained similar structures over the course of a season. Linkage density and robustness changed, but weighted nestedness, specialisation and weighted connectance did not; increasing floral ...

Effects of Atmospheric Pollutants on Volatile‐Mediated Insect Ecosystem Services

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2025.
This review addresses the current state of knowledge on the effects of air pollutants on volatile organic compound‐mediated insect–plant interactions, which underlie key ecosystem services. Significant knowledge gaps are also identified. While gaseous pollutants reduce the lifetime of individual compounds that act as olfactory cues, gaseous and ...

Neuroarchitecture of the Central Complex in the Madeira Cockroach Rhyparobia maderae: Tangential Neurons

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 12, December 2024.
The central complex is a group of interconnected neuropils spanning the midline of the insect brain. In the Madeira cockroach, we identified 27 types of tangential neuron providing input from various brain areas to different compartments of the central complex.
