Improved taxonomic and gene sampling advance the knowledge of deep relationships within Macrodasyida (Gastrotricha)

open access: yesCladistics, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 25-45, February 2026.
Abstract Advances in Macrodasyida (Gastrotricha) phylogenetics, fuelled by new species discoveries and molecular data, are reshaping taxonomic classifications. Molecular analyses suggest polyphyly in Cephalodasyidae and Macrodasyidae, yet insufficient sampling continues to obscure precise relationships.

Global diversification of coastal Cafius rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) driven by ocean currents since the early Miocene

open access: yesCladistics, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 79-94, February 2026.
Abstract As our understanding of abiotic factors continues to grow, along with insights into the biological traits of organisms, so too does the sophistication of studies exploring global diversification and spatio‐temporal distribution patterns. The global distribution of coastal Cafius rove beetles, combined with the endemic distribution patterns ...

Can Widely Used Methods Be Turned Into eDNA Samplers for Ground‐Dwelling Arthropods? Insights From Two Pilot Studies in West European Salt Marshes

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 164-177, February 2026.
This study evaluates bulk and eDNA metabarcoding via suction sampling and modified pitfall traps to monitor salt marsh arthropods. Suction sampling excelled in detecting overlooked taxa, whereas pitfalls were effective for Scarabaeinae. Results underscore the importance of adapting protocols to specific taxa and habitats and highlight the effects of ...

Near‐complete genome assembly of a transformation‐efficient elite inbred line LH244 and its comparison with B73

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 366-382, February 2026.
Analysis of a near‐complete assembly of the genome of the highly transformable maize inbred line LH244 revealed its high genetic similarity to B73 and will serve as a much‐needed resource for functional genomics and genome editing of maize. ABSTRACT The highly transformable maize inbred line LH244 represents an attractive model for gene discovery and ...

Rapid Detection of Fungi in Nail Specimens Using Multi‐Tube Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Assay

open access: yesMycoses, Volume 69, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Conventional diagnostic methods for onychomycosis possess disadvantages related to limited sensitivity, extended turnaround times and strong reliance on operator expertise. Objectives To develop a molecular assay with high sensitivity and specificity for rapid detection of multiple fungal pathogens in nail specimens. Methods A multi‐
