Honey wasps differ from other wasps in possessing large gut communities dominated by host-restricted bacteria [PDF]

mBio
Honey-feeding social bees, including honey bees, bumble bees, and stingless bees, possess distinctive gut bacterial communities that provide benefits to hosts, such as defense against pathogens and parasites.

The genome sequence of the ichneumon wasp Buathra laborator (Thunberg, 1822) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research, 2023
We present a genome assembly from an individual Buathra laborator (Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Ichneumonidae). The genome sequence is 330 megabases in span. Over 60% of the assembly is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules.

Males of the parasitoid wasp, Nasonia vitripennis, can identify which fly hosts contain females

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
The reproductive success of a male is limited by the number of females it can mate with. Thus, males deploy elaborate strategies to maximize access to females.

WASP-South transiting exoplanets: WASP-130b, WASP-131b, WASP-132b, WASP-139b, WASP-140b, WASP-141b and WASP-142b [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016
We describe seven exoplanets transiting stars of brightness V = 10.1 to 12.4. WASP-130b is a "warm Jupiter" having an orbital period of 11.6 d around a metal-rich G6 star. Its mass and radius (1.23 +/- 0.04 Mjup; 0.89 +/- 0.03 Rjup) support the trend that warm Jupiters have smaller radii than hot Jupiters.

Evaluation of Native and Nonnative Ornamentals as Pollinator Plants in Florida: I. Floral Abundance and Insect Visitation

HortScience, 2022
Diverse floral resources impart immense value for pollinating insects of all types. With increasing popularity and demand for modern ornamental hybrids, cultivation by breeders has led to selection for a suite of traits such as extended bloom periods and

WASP-South hot Jupiters: WASP-178b, WASP-184b, WASP-185b, and WASP-192b [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACTWe report on four new transiting hot Jupiters discovered by the WASP-South survey. WASP-178b transits a V = 9.9, A1V star with Teff = 9350 ± 150 K, the second-hottest transit host known. It has a highly bloated radius of 1.81 ± 0.09 RJup, in line with the known correlation between high irradiation and large size.

Biotechnologies in pest wasp control: taking the sting out of pest management for Māori businesses?

New Genetics and Society, 2021
In Aotearoa New Zealand, the government’s ambitious target of becoming “predator-free” by 2050 has reignited public discussion on biotechnologies. The disproportionate abundance of German and common wasps in New Zealand disrupts native biodiversity and ...

THREE WASP-SOUTH TRANSITING EXOPLANETS: WASP-74b, WASP-83b, AND WASP-89b [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 2015
We report the discovery of three new transiting hot Jupiters by WASP-South together with the TRAPPIST photometer and the Euler/CORALIE spectrograph. WASP-74b orbits a star of V = 9.7, making it one of the brighter systems accessible to Southern telescopes.
