The sweet taste receptors in the cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) are evolved to adapt towards the larval and adult foods with different types and amounts of sugar.
Regional meta-analysis enriches our understanding of zoonotic malaria in primate reservoirs in areas of Southeast Asia experiencing deforestation, with wider ecological implications for human disease risk in fragmented landscapes.
Collaborative hunting, characterized by the division of roles among predators, has emerged within a group of artificial agents through deep reinforcement learning.
Experimental Piper gardens across five neotropical sites reveal complex contingencies in the influence of species and population-level biodiversity on the flow of resources to insect herbivores and ecosystem resilience to changes in water availability.
Warming and altered precipitation reduce the growth rates of alpine soil bacteria by 40-90%, and the growth of ~70% taxa is influenced by antagonistic interactions between factors.
Instead of repelling, Desmodium, a hallmark of pest suppressive sustainable intercropping, acts as a mechanical and developmental barrier to larvae, thereby truncating population development.
The bacterium responsible for a disease that infects citrus plants across Asia facilitates its own proliferation by increasing the fecundity of its host insect.
