Response of Amblyseius swirskii to deltamethrin

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 6, Page 2800-2811, June 2025.
The analysis of toxicological and molecular data reveals target‐site as well as metabolic modifications associated with the resistance to deltamethrin in Amblyseius swirskii colonies. However, semi‐field assays show increased run‐off behavior after treatments with the same pesticide.

The wood economics spectrum modulates the positive effects of termite foraging intensity on deadwood invertebrate diversity

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 1498-1509, June 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract How populations of ecosystem engineers are both driven by and drive biodiversity is poorly known, even less so in detrital subsystems. Deadwood plays a key role in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem functions.

Idiosyncrasy of feather mite intensity and prevalence across passerine bird species: a comparative study

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 5, May 2025.
Symbionts are key elements of ecosystems, by playing important roles in shaping the biology and ecology of their hosts. However, the factors determining symbiont loads across host species are still unclear. Nowadays, we know that the intensity and prevalence of feather mites, the most diverse group of avian ectosymbionts, differ strongly between ...
