Just 17 days left to apply for a fully-funded PhD project. Open to international candidates! Will silicon be an effective plant defence against pests / pathogens under future climates? Chance to work with the wonderful @profSueHartley too!

Nectar-inhabiting bacteria do not only impact the foraging behavior of pollinators….parasitoids are affected too! Great collaboration with @bartlievens1 @AgEntoLabGOE @Salvato87749842 See link.springer.com/article/10…

Of course, Crop Protection is a bit less exotic (as the article implies) if you teach the subject yourself :-)

Whether you like it, hate it, believe it or ignore it, the term subspecies exists. Can anyone point me to papers or texts where definitions for this term have been provided? I am particularly interested in its application to arthropods. Please RT if you have relevant followers.

Very stimulating and inspiring day today! Together with @AgEntoLabGOE we organized a bilateral online workshop where all our PhD students and postdocs could present their work in 10 mins. Thanks everyone for making this possible!
