New designer toxins kill Bt-resistant insect pests
A new way to combat resistant pests stems from discovering how the widely used natural insecticide Bt kills insects. view more (2007-11-02)
Biggest 'small' black hole discovered
Discovery of the largest example of a "small" black hole - one formed from the collapse of a single massive star at the end of its lifetime - has led scientists to revaluate of how black holes come into being, according to a report in Nature. view more (2007-10-22)
For honey bee queens, multiple mating makes a difference
The success of the "reign" of a honey bee queen appears to be determined to a large degree by the number of times she mates with drone bees. view more (2007-10-09)
Researchers investigate new suspect in West Nile deaths of pelicans
Stable flies are the latest suspect that may be involved in the West Nile virus deaths of hundreds of pelican chicks at the Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge in northeast Montana. view more (2007-10-01)
Virus named as possible factor in honey bee disorder
A comparison of healthy and unhealthy bee colonies points to a virus contributing to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), according to a report being published by the journal Science, at the Science Express web site, on 06 September. Science is published by AAAS, the nonprofit science society. view more (2007-09-07)
Bee researchers close in on Colony Collapse Disorder
Across the nation, beekeepers have seen hive after hive succumb to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD); a team of entomologists and infectious disease researchers now report a strong correlation between the occupancy of CCD and a virus, Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus (IVAP). view more (2007-09-07)
Deadly mine 'bump' was recorded as seismic event
The University of Utah Seismograph Stations recorded a magnitude-1.6 seismic event at the time of a Thursday, Aug. 16 "bump" that killed and injured rescuers at a Utah coal mine where six miners were trapped by an Aug. 6 collapse. view more (2007-08-20)
Satellite tracking will help answer questions about penguin travels
University of Washington scientists will attach satellite tracking devices to the backs of six penguins that have been treated at two centers in northern Argentina after their feathers were fouled with oil. The birds will be released into the Atlantic Ocean and their movements traced using satellites and the Internet. view more (2007-08-07)

Marine phytoplankton changes form to protect itself from different predators
In a paper published June 11 in the online version of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report the first evidence that a common species of saltwater algae - also known as phytoplankton - can change form to protect itself against attack by predators that have very different feeding habits. view more (2007-06-18)
Study investigates 'divorce' among Galapagos seabirds
Being a devoted husband and father is not enough to keep an avian marriage together for the Nazca booby, a long-lived seabird found in the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador. view more (2007-06-13)
Undergraduate research shows leaderless honeybee organizing
Undergraduate education generally involves acquiring "received knowledge" - in other words, absorbing the past discoveries of scholars and scientists. But University of North Carolina at Charlotte senior biology major Andrew Pierce went beyond the textbooks and uncovered something previously unknown. view more (2007-06-12)
Flexible genes allow ants to change destiny
The discovery of a flexible genetic coding in leaf-cutting ants sheds new light on how one of nature's ultimate self-organising species breeds optimum numbers of each worker type to ensure the smooth running of the colony. view more (2007-05-25)
