Global patterns of stream detritivore distribution: Implications for biodiversity loss in changing climates
Global Ecology and Biogeography, 21(2), 134–141.
Contributors: L. Boyero *, R. Pearson *, D. Dudgeon *, V. Ferreira *, M. Graça *, M. Gessner *, A. Boulton *, E. Chauvet *
TL;DR:
The hypothesis that shredder detritivores, a key trophic guild in stream ecosystems, are more diverse at higher latitudes, which has important ecological implications in the face of potential biodiversity losses, is tested.

When resources don't rescue: flowering phenology and species interactions affect compensation to herbivory in <i>Ipomopsis aggregata
Oikos, 121(9), 1424–1434.
TL;DR:
The results demonstrate that the variability in plant response to herbivory can, at least in part, be driven by plant interactions with mutualists and enemies.

Density-dependent habitat use and growth of an estuarine fish
Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 69(11), 1734–1747.
Ed(s): M. Rochet
TL;DR:
This work used multiple long-term, fishery-independent data sets and a unique modeling approach to test the hypothesis that juvenile red drum exhibit density-dependent habitat use and growth rates in estuaries in North Carolina, USA.

What you smell is more important than what you see? Natural selection on floral scent
New Phytologist, 195(3), 510–511.
TL;DR:
The work presented in this issue of New Phytologist provides a significant step forward in the understanding of phenotypic selection on floral traits by showing that floral scent can be under stronger selection than more traditionally measured floral morphological traits, such as floral size and color.

Effects of abiotic factors and species interactions on estimates of male plant function: a meta‐analysis
Ecology Letters, 16(3), 399–408.
Ed(s): J. Gurevitch
TL;DR:
Meta-analysis finds significant effects of abiotic factors and species interactions on estimates of male function, with responses varying depending on environmental factor identity, suggesting that some male function estimates may fail to capture the effects of environmental factors on male fitness.

Cry Toxins in Transgenic Plants Have Direct Effects on Natural Enemies in the Laboratory
Environmental Entomology, 41(5), 1045–1047.
TL;DR:
It is argued that mean effect sizes cannot be used to claim the lack of an effect of Cry toxins on diverse species as was done in previous meta-analyses, and technical clarification of the calculations is provided.

Effects on stink bugs of field edges adjacent to woodland
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 156, 94–98.
TL;DR:
Results suggest that edge-specific control measures should not be concentrated at those field edges adjacent to woodlands, as the woodland edge was not a major source from which stink bugs colonized these crops.

Analysis of current research addressing complementary use of life-cycle assessment and risk assessment for engineered nanomaterials: have lessons been learned from previous experience with chemicals?
Journal of Nanoparticle Research, 14(7).
TL;DR:
Evaluating how research efforts have applied LCA and RA together for NM appears to have taken into account some key “lessons learned” from previous experience with chemicals while many key challenges remain for practically applying these methods to NM.

Thermal Tolerances of Freshwater Mussels and their Host Fishes: Species Interactions in a Changing Climate
Freshwater Mollusk Biology and Conservation, 15(1), 69.
TL;DR:
The findings in this meta-analysis suggest that thermal effects of anthropogenic landscape alteration and climate change may be compounded for freshwater mussels via their obligate life cycle interaction with fish and highlight the importance of considering global change effects in a community context.

Genotoxic Response of Unionid Mussel Hemolymph to Hydrogen Peroxide and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Freshwater Mollusk Biology and Conservation, 15(2), 113.
TL;DR:
Assessment of the applicability of the comet assay in unionid mussel hemolymph sampled non-lethally with a reference genotoxicant, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) indicated that additional research and evaluation may be necessary before implementing the widespread use of a non-lethal, unionid Mussel hemlymph based genotoxicity screening tool for environmental biomonitoring.

Engaging Latino Farmworkers in the Development of Symbols to Improve Pesticide Safety and Health Education and Risk Communication
Journal of Immigrant and Minority Health, 15(5), 975–981.
author keywords: Pesticides; Health education; Farmworkers; Toxicology
MeSH headings : Adult; Agriculture; Central America / ethnology; Communication; Female; Focus Groups; Health Education; Humans; Iowa; Male; Mexico / ethnology; North Carolina; Occupational Exposure / prevention & control; Occupational Health; Pesticides / poisoning; Product Labeling; Qualitative Research; Risk Management / methods
TL;DR:
Visual materials for a pesticide toxicology safety and health curriculum were constructed by engaging farmworkers in various stages of symbol development, supporting the importance of vivid and realistic symbols, the effectiveness of a traffic-light symbol in communicating technical information to farmworkers, and the need to engage low-literacy end-users in the production of educational materials.
