Edible Insect Allergens: An Emerging Food Safety Challenge
Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.Allergic responses to edible insects arise via two main pathways: cross‐reactivity with homologous arthropod allergens and primary sensitization to edible insect proteins, both leading to IgE‐mediated immune activation. ABSTRACT Edible insects are increasingly promoted as sustainable protein sources; however, their allergenic potential remains a ...

Urbanization Effects on the Community Structure of Saproxylic Arthropods in Warm‐Temperate Japan
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.This study examined saproxylic arthropod communities in various landscapes, ranging from large to fragmented urban forests, and compared the structure and composition of these communities. The results showed that communities could be classified into three types based on species composition and that arthropod community types were correlated with forest ...

The Potential for Pest Management Using Plant‐Derived Signaling Compounds
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.Plant‐derived signaling compounds mediate ecological interactions among plants, herbivores, their natural enemies, and neighboring plants. This graphical summary highlights three approaches to leveraging such ecological interactions for environmentally benign pest management: (1) Recruitment of natural enemies: Using herbivory‐induced plant volatiles ...

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Fire may have distinct effects on the fauna inhabiting savannas and forests, because the former have evolved under occasional occurrence of fire, while natural caused fire tends to be rare in tropical forests. Therefore, fires may be particularly influential to plant–animal interactions in forests.
