Effect of the microbiome on pathogen susceptibility across four Drosophilidae species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Four Drosophilidae species were used to investigate how variation in the host microbiome influences susceptibility to infection. Microbial composition and abundance differed among species and treatments. The effects of microbiome manipulation on host survival were both species‐ and pathogen‐specific.

US Farm Bill in 2025: Ad Hoc Assistance becomes an Expanded Multi‐Year Safety Net Loi agricole américaine de 2025 : l'aide ponctuelle devient un filet de sécurité pluriannuel élargi US Farm Bill in 2025: Ad‐hoc‐Beihilfen werden zu einem erweiterten mehrjährigen Sicherheitsnetz

EuroChoices, EarlyView.
Summary The 2025 US farm bill converts ad hoc farm assistance since 2018 into a projected US$ 62 billion farm safety net expansion within multi‐year legislation. Usually stand‐alone with strong bipartisan support, the 2025 edition is largely provisions in a far‐reaching, partisan budget law. The farm safety net is expanded by cutting food assistance to

Volumetric Comparison of Overall Brain and Neuropil Size Between Social and Non‐social Spiders: Exploring the Social Brain Hypothesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Brain size may be influenced by the cognitive demands of sociality (social brain hypothesis). We used microCT to compare CNS and brain volumes in social versus solitary huntsman and crab spiders. Social huntsman spiders had larger arcuate and mushroom bodies, while social crab spiders had larger visual neuropils.

Transcriptomics Unveil Dsx1 as a Critical Regulator in Sexual Dimorphism of Crustaceans

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexually dimorphic traits are involved in reproductive competition and are shaped by sex‐biased gene expression. This study identifies Dsx1 as a key male‐biased gene in Morinoia aosen and demonstrates through RNA interference that its disruption feminizes male‐specific T3 leg structures.
