Pollinator is a housemate: Aeginetia indica, a parasite on Miscanthus sinensis, is pollinated by Ceratina bees nesting in its host

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 266-273, May 2025.
Aeginetia indica is a parasitic plant on Miscanthus sinensis. Through interval photography and direct observation, we identified Ceratina flavipes as its sole pollinator, which nests inside the stem of M. sinensis. This pollination system, which involves a mutual relationship between a parasitic plant and an insect inhabiting the same host plant, has ...

Deconstruction of the (paleo)polyploid grapevine genome based on the analysis of transposition events involving NBS resistance genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Plants have followed a reticulate type of evolution and taxa have frequently merged via allopolyploidization. A polyploid structure of sequenced genomes has often been proposed, but the chromosomes belonging to putative component genomes are difficult to

Handbook of protocols for standardized measurements of floral traits for pollinators in temperate communities

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 988-1001, May 2025.
Abstract Floral traits describe organs or structures directly related to plant reproduction, and they are essential to understanding plant–pollinator interactions, notably for conservation purposes. The growth of plant trait‐based approaches lies in the availability of data shared by the international research community on dedicated platforms, as well ...

Review of larval food plant associations of the Agaristinae (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Australia

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2025.
Abstract The Australian Agaristinae comprises a small group of predominantly diurnal moths with aposematic larvae and adults that are assumed to be unpalatable to most predators. A critical review of the larval food plants of this subfamily based on published records in the literature, together with unpublished records, is presented.

Digital seed morphometry for genotype identification — case study of seeds of excavated (15th century Hungary) and current vinegrape (Vitis v. vinifera) varieties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Digital seed image analysis of seed remains of three ancient vinegrape samples excavated from 15th-century sites of Hungary was conducted and compared to those of ten currently grown old grapevine varieties. Digital seed images were analysed by Fovea Pro

Characterizing brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys Stål, host plant usage and acceptability: Methodological strengths and shortcomings

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 5, Page 403-416, May 2025.
We compared three tools for assessing invasive brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), host plant usage. Baited traps were deployed to measure populations in tree canopies but found no differences. We tagged insects to track their retention on fruit hosts using harmonic radar; peach and baited apple trees were ...

Pest categorisation of Selenaspidus articulatus

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum unrooted cuttings from Uganda, in which Selenaspidus articulatus (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) was identified as a pest of possible concern, the European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to conduct a pest categorisation of S.
