A Modular Design of a Cholera Toxin B Subunit‐Scaffolded Sub‐Virion Nanoparticle Vaccine Against West Nile Virus

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
A recombinant West Nile virus (WNV) subunit vaccine was developed by displaying ED3 on a CTB scaffold. The fusion protein formed soluble nanoparticles in E. coli, eliciting strong, balanced, and specific neutralizing antibodies without cross‐reactivity, offering a safe, scalable subunit vaccine platform.

Spiroplasma Are Protective Heritable Symbionts With Low Physiological Impact in the Drosophilid Fly Zaprionus kolodkinae

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Zaprionus kolodkinae flies carry a maternally inherited ixodetis clade Spiroplasma that protects its host against wasp attack but has low overall physiological impact. Genome analysis presented a set of known symbiosis‐relevant effectors, and one encoding—a ricin B domain protein—that is novel to this Spiroplasma genome.

Generalist With a Narrow Niche Breadth: Feeding Ecology and Seed Germination Effectiveness of a Large Canid Within a Silvicultural Matrix

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Diet: The generalist canid exhibits a narrow niche breadth (0.12), consuming native plants (100% frequency) and animals (85%). Birds dominate animal prey (74%), peaking in the dry season, while Solanaceae plants dominate plant food (100%), peaking in the rainy season.

Amendment of Potting Soil With Black Soldier Fly Byproducts Affects Fungus Gnat Development

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 6, Page 495-507, June 2026.
The study's three experiments were conducted in accordance with the development stages of fungus gnats, with adults emerging from the four treatment substrates and being caught on sticky cards as a common indicator. The treatments were formed from peat‐free potting soil, either pure or supplemented with combinations of byproducts from black soldier fly

Leaf Extracts of Coffea racemosa Inhibit Trypsin Activity and Affect Larval Development in Spodoptera frugiperda and Diatraea saccharalis

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 6, Page 527-535, June 2026.
Leaf extracts of Coffea racemosa inhibit digestive trypsins and impair the development of two major lepidopteran pests, Spodoptera frugiperda and Diatraea saccharalis. While both species showed significant enzymatic inhibition, biological responses differed markedly. D. saccharalis exhibited high mortality, whereas S.
