EntoSieve: Automated Size‐Sorting of Insect Bulk Samples to Aid Accurate Megabarcoding and Metabarcoding

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Widespread insect decline necessitates the development and use of standardized protocols for regular monitoring. These methods have to be rapid, efficient and cost‐effective to allow for large‐scale implementation. Many insect sampling and molecular methods have been developed.

Identification and characterisation of Zucchini yellow fleck virus and a novel Nepovirus from next‐generation sequencing of mixed virus infections in cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) from Crete

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
High‐throughput sequencing from cucumber leaf samples collected in Crete, Greece, revealed mixed infections including a cucumber‐infecting isolate of Zucchini yellow fleck virus and a novel nepovirus, provisionally named cucumber nepovirus A (CuNVA).

Preserving Short‐Sward Natural Grasslands May Provide Suitable Foraging Habitat for a Climate‐Threatened Alpine Species Along Ski‐Pistes

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Investigating the ultimate factors that underpin the impacts of ski‐pistes on alpine species is crucial to identify concrete mitigation strategies. This is urgently needed given that winter sports are expanding in mountain ranges worldwide. We evaluated the impacts of ski‐pistes on the foraging behaviour of the white‐winged snowfinch, an iconic alpine ...

Host specificity and host stage preference of Psyllaephagus species (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) towards invasive eucalypt psyllids (Hemiptera: Aphalaridae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive eucalypt psyllids pose a threat to the long‐term production of eucalypts worldwide. In order to reduce their economic impact, classical biological control using Psyllaephagus species has been used successfully. The objectives of this study were to determine the host specificity and host stage preference of Psyllaephagus blastopsyllae,
