DOI: 10.1002/arch.21728
Abstract: Re-nd, which was induced from the wild-type C108 by the chemical mutagen N-methane-N-methylnitrourea, is a nondiapause red-egg mutant of silkworm Bombyx mori. The special significance of the Re-nd mutant is that it is an independent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3759
Abstract: Abstract Rothstein (Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 11, 1982, 229) was one of the first comprehensive studies to examine how different egg features influence egg rejection behaviors of avian brood parasite–hosts. The methods and conclusions of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4774
Abstract: Abstract Anthropogenic climate change is widely considered a major threat to global biodiversity, such that the ability of a species to adapt will determine its likelihood of survival. Egg‐burying reptiles that exhibit temperature‐dependent sex determination,… read more here.

Damselfly eggs alter their development rate in the presence of an invasive alien cue but not a native predator cue

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7729
Abstract: Abstract Biological invasions are a serious problem in natural ecosystems. Local species that are potential prey of invasive alien predators can be threatened by their inability to recognize invasive predator cues. Such an inability of… read more here.

Patterns of stress response to foreign eggs by a rejecter host of an obligate avian brood parasite

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9691
Abstract: Abstract One of the most effective defenses of avian hosts against obligate brood parasites is the ejection of parasitic eggs from the nests. Despite the clear fitness benefits of this behavior, individuals within so‐called “egg‐rejecter”… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.3211
Abstract: Food resources are often patchily distributed through space and time and are classified as resource pulses when hyperabundant. Resource pulses can benefit growth, reproduction, and abundance of various consumers. Yet, it is relatively unknown how… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/etc.5157
Abstract: The use of pesticides for plague control in agroecosystems generates a threat to wildlife and a major problem for human health. Pesticide compounds are also an important source of water and atmosphere contamination. Although insecticides… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jemt.22922
Abstract: The egg capsules of five systellognathan stoneflies species representing the genus Isoperla (Plecoptera, Perlodidae) have been investigated using light and electron microscopes (SEM and TEM). We consider the structural modifications of egg coverings (egg capsules,… read more here.
