Integration of photoperiodic and temperature cues by the circadian clock to regulate insect seasonal adaptations

S Hidalgo, JC Chiu - Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 2024 - Springer
Organisms adapt to unfavorable seasonal conditions to survive. These seasonal
adaptations rely on the correct interpretation of environmental cues such as photoperiod …

Temperature and biodiversity influence community stability differently in birds and fishes

The lack of plasticity and interspecific variability in thermal limits produce a highly heat-tolerant tropical host-parasitoid system

M Bussy, W Destierdt, P Masnou, C Lazzari… - Journal of Thermal …, 2024 - Elsevier
Thermal limits are often used as proxies to assess the vulnerability of ectotherms to
environmental change. While meta-analyses point out a relatively low plasticity of heat limits …

Humidity modifies species‐specific and age‐dependent heat stress effects in an insect host‐parasitoid interaction

D Li, B Brough, JW Rees, CFD Coste… - Ecology and …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Climate change is projected to increase the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events,
and may increase humidity levels, leading to coupled thermal and hydric stress. However …

Impact of Cropland Management on Invertebrate Richness and Abundance in Agroforestry Systems in Bali, Indonesia

Predation, but not herbivory, declines with elevation in a tropical rainforest

BEL Barlow, A Nakamura, LA Ashton - Tropical Ecology, 2024 - Springer
Naturally, insect herbivore populations are controlled by their plant hosts and predators.

Contrasting responses of drosophila pupal parasitoids to heat waves in the larval and adult stages

T Liu, W Ren, W Jiang, J Wang, X Xi - Ecological Entomology - Wiley Online Library
The life history of parasitoids is divided into a parasitic immature stage living in or on a host
invertebrate and a free‐living adult stage. We still have little consensus on how larvae and …
