Nature‐Positive Materials Engineering: Carbon Electrodes from Satoyama Biomass

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
Nature‐positive materials engineering can link satoyama forest stewardship with the design of carbon electrodes for batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. By turning underused firewood and charcoal resources into functional carbons, this approach reduces mining footprints while supporting biodiversity, landscape resilience, and regional ...

Multi‐Omics Profiling of the Scaphoideus titanus Yeast‐Like Symbiont Guides the Bioinformatic Discovery of Related Fungal Symbioses in Insects

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Genomic, proteomic and phylogenetic analyses of the obligate yeast‐like symbiont (YLS) associated with Scaphoideus titanus revealed retained metabolic flexibility and a monophyletic origin of insect‐associated YLSs within a free‐living fungal lineage. A novel computational pipeline was used to mine NCBI transcriptomic data and identified new candidate ...

Long‐term demography and spatial genetic structure reveal mechanisms of Sassafras albidum population persistence through clonality

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Premise Vegetative regeneration is a key mechanism of woody plant persistence in forest ecosystems, and the coupled roles of basal sprouting and clonal growth in shaping long‐term population dynamics have been understudied. Basal sprouting replaces stems at fixed ramet locations, whereas clonal growth via root suckering produces spatially ...

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Integrative Analysis of the Invasive Pathways of the Ragweed Leaf Beetle Ophraella communa LeSage 1986 (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) Into Domestic Areas of the Korean Peninsula

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Habitus of each life stage of Ophraella communa on Ambrosia artemisiifolia in the wild. (A) Egg mass; (B) larva; (C) pupae; (D) adult (scale bar = 5.0 mm). ABSTRACT The ragweed leaf beetle Ophraella communa LeSage is an exotic species reported to have been introduced to Korea in 2002. It has spread and inhabits the entire Korean Peninsula using ragweed,

Pest categorisation of non‐EU Scolytinae of coniferous hosts

EFSA Journal, 2020
The Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of non‐EU Scolytinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) of coniferous hosts (hereafter NESC). NESC occur worldwide, and some species are important forest pests.
EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Claude Bragard, Katharina Dehnen‐Schmutz, Francesco Di Serio, Paolo Gonthier, Marie‐Agnès Jacques, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Annemarie Fejer Justesen, Alan MacLeod, Christer Sven Magnusson, Juan A Navas‐Cortes, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Philippe Lucien Reignault, Hans‐Hermann Thulke, Wopke Van der Werf, Antonio Vicent Civera, Jonathan Yuen, Lucia Zappalà, Jean‐Claude Grégoire, Virág Kertész, Franz Streissl, Panagiotis Milonas   +22 more

Tea Shot-Hole Borer Euwallacea fornicatus (Eichhoff, 1868) (Insecta: Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae)

EDIS, 2015
The tea shot-hole borer is an Asian ambrosia beetle introduced to Florida in the early 2000s. In Florida it does not have any known economic impact, but it is a serious pest of tea around the world and is one of the few ambrosia beetles that can infest ...

Vertically Stratified Ash-Limb Beetle Fauna in Northern Ohio

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
To better understand the diversity and ecology of indigenous arthropods at risk from the invasive emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) in North American forests, saproxylic beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera) were reared from ash (Fraxinus sp ...

Fungi That Live Within Animals: Application of Cell Cytometry to Examine Fungal Colonization of Ambrosia Beetle (Xyleborus sp.) Mycangia

Journal of Fungi
Ambrosia beetles bore into trees, excavating galleries where they farm fungi as their sole source of nutrition. These mutualistic fungi typically do not cause significant damage to host trees; however, since their invasion into the U.S., the beetle ...
