Molecular insights into entomopathogenic fungal biomarkers associated with low-density Popillia japonica populations in the Azores

Biological Control
Popillia japonica is a highly destructive pest that is spreading across Europe and feeds on a wide range of economically valuable plants. In this study, we conducted metabarcoding and incidence analyses to characterise pathomycobiome communities in soil ...

Non‐Stationarity of the Spatial Footprints of Storm Surges

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Storm surges can cause extreme coastal flooding across large and sometimes geographically disconnected areas. Understanding their spatial footprints is essential for effective risk assessment and emergency planning. Previous studies have delineated the spatial footprints of extreme storm surges at global and regional scales, assuming that they

Eccentricity Controls the Magnitude and Periodicity of Pleistocene Glacial Cycles

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract During the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition (∼1,250–750 ka) glacial cycle amplitude and duration increased, from smaller, ∼40 ka‐period middle Pleistocene ice sheets to larger, ∼100 ka‐period late Pleistocene ice sheets. This transition in glacial period and size has been attributed to some combination of long‐term, monotonic, carbon and climate ...

Comparative Physiology and Genomics of Thermincola and Carboxydocella Strains and Description of Two Novel Isolates

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
Two novel thermophilic bacteria, Thermincola strain AZ34E and Carboxydocella strain AZ29I, were isolated from hydrothermal environments and shown to oxidise carbon monoxide via the water‐gas shift reaction. Comparative genomic and phylogenetic analyses revealed that all currently described isolates within Thermincola and Carboxydocella each represent a

Exemption or illusion? The impact of a youth tax policy on house asking prices in Portugal

Real Estate Economics, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 469-503, March 2026.
Abstract Affordable housing has become an increasing challenge for young individuals in Portugal, where rising house prices and precarious employment conditions hinder homeownership. To address this barrier, the Portuguese Government introduced a tax exemption for individuals under 35 purchasing their first home.

Climate Change Can Generate Enemy‐Free Space for Crop‐Feeding Herbivores

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
Magnitude and direction of change in parasitoid pressure for 14 agricultural pests subject to climate‐driven distributional shifts. Pests are organized per increasing parasitoid pressure under current climatic conditions (X axis). Bubble size is reflective of the (absolute) area affected by a given pest under a given scenario.

Toward a global repository of insect traits (GRIT)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 253-267, March 2026.
Biodiversity loss is accelerating, yet insect conservation is hindered by the absence of a centralised, comprehensive trait database. We propose the GRIT, a FAIR, open‐access platform uniting datasets and collaborators worldwide. GRIT will harness advanced computational tools for trait acquisition and imputation, enabling large‐scale ecological ...

Immunomodulatory Effect of a Cysteine-Rich Secretory Protein from an Entomopathogenic Nematode with Sterol-Binding Activity

Toxins
The Steinernema carpocapsae nematode is known to release several excretory/secretory products (ESPs) in its venom upon contact and during the parasitic infection process of insect hosts.
