Comparative Analysis of Gut Eukaryotic Communities in Three Laboratory‐Reared Cockroach Species Using Metabarcoding

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cockroaches are known reservoirs for diverse bacterial microbiomes. However, comprehensive analyses of the eukaryotic communities within cockroaches remain limited. In this study, we selected three long‐term laboratory‐reared cockroach species (Blattella germanica, Periplaneta fuliginosa, and Periplaneta japonica) and performed metabarcoding ...

Evolution of Animal Parasitism in Nematodes of the Suborder Spirurina

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study reconstructs the evolutionary history of parasitism in Spirurina by integrating ancestral state reconstruction (ASR) with a comprehensive phylogenetic framework. Our analyses reveal clear patterns of hostswitching and major transitions in host associations, providing the first broad evolutionary perspective on parasitism within this group ...
