Declining or Waning
- Insect Developmental Biology:
Research on developmental processes in insects, such as metamorphosis and diapause, has seen a reduction in publications, possibly overshadowed by more applied studies in ecology and pest management. - Traditional Taxonomy without Molecular Approaches:
While traditional taxonomy remains important, studies focusing solely on morphological traits without incorporating molecular techniques are becoming less common, as researchers increasingly adopt integrative taxonomic methods. - Basic Behavioral Studies:
There is a noticeable decrease in publications focusing on basic behavioral studies of insects that do not intersect with ecological or applied contexts, indicating a shift towards more applied research themes.
