Insect immunity in the Anthropocene
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic activities result in global change, including climate change, landscape degradation and pollution, that can alter insect physiology and immune defences. These changes may have contributed to global insect decline and the dynamics of insect‐transmitted diseases.

Winter barley yield is significantly impacted by BYDV. In the absence of neonicotinoid seed dressing, alternative insecticides offer protection for winter barley crops against the aphid vectors of BYDV and associated yield loss. Abstract Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) is the most widespread viral disease of cereal crops vectored by aphids, causing ...

Field studies involve combinations of exposure, natural dynamics, and effects in natural and agricultural environments. To be more realistic, field studies focussed on pollinating insects must consider the details of biology, life history, behavior, and pollination ecology of the test species. While expensive and time-consuming, these tests provide the

Focus on Physico‐Chemical Properties of Sulfoximines: Acidity, Basicity and Lipophilicity
Although sulfoximines are emerging entities in chemistry, no physico‐chemical are present in the literature. We disclose here a comprehensive study on the measurement of their acidity, basicity and the determination of their Hansch parameters. Abstract Despite the numerous published syntheses and applications of sulfoximines, very few studies describe ...

Examining the effects of repeated pesticide exposure on bumblebee queen survival and reproduction
Here, we look at the effects of an unstudied, yet biologically likely exposure regime, on bumblebee queens. We found that neither exposure to sulfoxaflor pre‐ or post‐hibernation, nor their combination, impacted hibernation survival or colony foundation.
