LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Developmentally controlled subcellular remodeling and VND-initiated vacuole-executed PCD module shape xylem-like cells in peat moss

Communications Biology
Peat moss (Sphagnum) is a non-vascular higher plant with unique xylem-like hyaline (H) cells that are accompanied by photosynthetic chlorophyllous cells. These cellular structures play crucial roles in water storage and carbon sequestration.

Downstream Passage Performance of European Silver Eels (Anguilla anguilla): The Importance of Phenotypic Variation and Rack Design

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
During their spawning migration, European silver eels frequently encounter hydropower facilities where successful downstream passage is essential for the conservation of this critically endangered species. In this study, we evaluated how three angled rack designs and individual behavioral variation influenced downstream passage success in large‐scale ...

The KNAT3a1-WND2A/3A module positively regulates fiber secondary cell wall biosynthesis in Populus tomentosa

Horticultural Plant Journal
The secondary cell wall (SCW) is essential for plant growth and development in vascular plants, and its biosynthesis is mainly controlled by a complex hierarchical regulatory network involving multiple transcription factors (TFs) at the transcription ...

A defensive symbiont and a plant virus confer direct and discrete phenotypes to a cereal aphid in a context‐dependent manner

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Different BYDV‐PAV isolates exert contrasting effects on aphid fitness, including reproduction and winged production. Different BYDV‐PAV isolates have contrasting effects on aphid dispersal patterns. Aphid feeding behaviour is modulated by the presence of endosymbionts and plant viruses.

Evidence for a defensive ceiling in the effectiveness of plant silicon defences against an insect herbivore

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Silicon‐mediated resistance in wheat reaches a defensive plateau; accumulating silicon beyond 2mM provides no additional benefit for suppressing insect herbivore relative growth rates. Silicon supplementation significantly increases wheat biomass and effectively ameliorates plant mass losses caused by Helicoverpa armigera herbivory. Lower mandible wear

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

Development of an Artificial Liquid Diet for Allelochemical Delivery in Lycorma delicatula

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula White (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), is an invasive phloem‐feeding planthopper native to Asia, which poses a growing threat to US agriculture due to its broad host range and rapid spread since its 2014 detection. To better understand how L.

Volatile organic compounds orchestrating microbiome‐mediated crop resilience: Prospects and challenges for sustainable agriculture

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Herbivory triggers the production of green leaf volatiles, and dense planting results in induces increased concentration of linalool emission in maize canopies. These volatiles activate plant‐soil feedback that enriches beneficial rhizosphere bacteria, enhancing resistance, though sometimes at a growth cost, thereby offering new avenues for sustainable
