Carryover Effects of Thermal Conditions on Tick Survival, Behavior, and Simulated Detectability
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.Recent thermal history affects the abundance and behavior of adult Amblyomma americanum. Thermal responses impacted simulated tick detection through combined effects on movement and mortality. ABSTRACT Carryover effects occur when environmental history of an organism influences its behavior, fitness, and population dynamics.

Extracellular Vesicles in Arthropods: Biogenesis, Functions, Isolation Methods and Applications
Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound nanoparticles secreted by cells that are involved in multiple forms of intercellular communication and show promising potential for biotechnological applications. Arthropod‐derived EV research remains relatively fragmented in contrast to the extensively studied mammalian EV field. In this review,
