Impacts of drought and nitrogen enrichment on leaf nutrient resorption and root nutrient allocation in four Tibetan plant species
SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT, 723.
author keywords: Global change; Nitrogen retranslocation; Nutrient cycling; Nutrient conservation; Nutrient distribution; Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
MeSH headings : Droughts; Ecosystem; Nitrogen / analysis; Nutrients; Phosphorus / analysis; Plant Leaves / chemistry; Soil; Tibet

The egg and larval pheromone dodecanoic acid mediates density-dependent oviposition of Phlebotomus papatasi
Parasites & Vectors, 13(1).
author keywords: Leishmaniasis; Oviposition behavior; Sand flies; Semiochemicals; Dose-response bioassay; Oviposition regulation; Allee effect; Isovaleric acid

TL;DR:
Investigation of the attraction and oviposition preference of the Old World cutaneous leishmaniasis vector, Phlebotomus papatasi, to young and old conspecific stages, including eggs and the effect of a semiochemical associated with eggs and neonate larvae corroborated the hypothesis that gravid sand flies should prefer early colonized Oviposition sites as indicators of site suitability but avoid sites containing older stages as indicator of potential competition.

Genetic and Physiological Characterization of a Calcium Deficiency Phenotype in Maize
G3 Genes|Genomes|Genetics, 10(6), 1963–1970.
Contributors: Y. Wang n, L. Martins n, S. Sermons n & P. Balint-Kurti n
author keywords: QTL; Calcium deficiency; maize
MeSH headings : Animals; Calcium; Cattle; Chromosome Mapping; Male; Phenotype; Quantitative Trait Loci; Zea mays / genetics

Can Cities Activate Sleeper Species and Predict Future Forest Pests? A Case Study of Scale Insects
INSECTS, 11(3).
