Elevated UV‐B alters anti‐herbivore plant defence allocation, while silicon supplementation maintains resistance

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The impacts of elevated surface ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B) on ecological processes, such as anti‐herbivore defence in plants, remain poorly understood. Many cereal crops depend on accumulating silicon (Si) in their tissues to resist insect herbivory.

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and Pest outbreaks

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

Extreme weather and economic crisis in the 1430s in England, and the implications for tenurial change

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...

Replacement of fish meal by poultry by product meal, food grade, in diets for juvenile spotted rose snapper (Lutjanus

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014
The feasibility of replacing fish meal protein at different levels with poultry by product meal food grade (PBM-FG) was assessed in diets for spotted rose snapper Lutjanus guttatus. Four diets were formulated, the control diet fish meal was used as the main protein source (FM); the other three diets had increasing levels of PBM-FG replacing 25, 50 or ...

Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Reproduction and Early Life Development in Marine Teleost Fish—A Synthesis

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ocean acidification (OA) remains a major and underexplored threat to marine fishes, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and early life stages (ELS). Although research over the past 15 years has documented diverse OA effects, substantial knowledge gaps persist.

Experiencing and Responding to Existential Vulnerability: Navigating the Work–Fertility Treatment Interface

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The need to undergo fertility treatment to fulfill parenthood aspirations involves many challenges in professional and personal domains. Extant scholarship has tended to focus on the identity threats and individual experiences of the challenges involved, but research has not delved into the more relational experiences that may characterize ...
