Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1779-1792, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Livestock Depredations and Prevention Strategies to Foster Human‐Carnivore Coexistence in Western Mongolia's High Mountain Systems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
The implementation of visual deterrents (i.e., Foxlights) proved to be effective in reducing the number of night‐time livestock depredations by both snow leopards and wolves. ABSTRACT The decline of large carnivores and the overabundance of livestock practices contribute significantly to ecosystem degradation.

Evaluating novel attachment methods for tracking devices on terrestrial mammals

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
We deployed GNSS tracking devices on 2 endangered large terrestrial mammals, scimitar‐horned oryx and Przewalski's horses, using novel attachment methods. Tags achieved fix success rates and spatial accuracy that compare well with standard collars used on large mammals.

Chemical Profiling and In Vitro Assessment of Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Properties of Algerian Erica arborea L. Extracts, Strengthened by Molecular Modeling Analysis

ChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Erica arborea L. from Algeria was valorized via chemical profiling and bioactivity assessment. The EtOAc extract showed the highest levels of polyphenols, flavonoids, and flavonols. It exhibited strong antioxidant (ABTS•+, DPPH•, FRAP) and antibacterial activity (S. aureus, B. subtilis).

Evolutionary history and recombination in the mitochondrial carrier SLC25 superfamily analyzed by similarities in the exon and transmembrane α‐helix sequences

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Mitochondrial carriers (MCs), which constitute a superfamily also called the solute carrier family 25 (SLC25), are characterized by conserved signature motif sequences and a six‐transmembrane α‐helical transporter domain. They transport a wide variety of substrates ranging from protons, inorganic ions, citric acid cycle intermediates, and ...

Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1121-1144, August 2026.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.

Can executive functions be improved by playing board games across the lifespan? A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Applied Psychology: Health and Well-Being, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Board games are usually played with other people across the lifespan. They seem to improve executive functions, which are psychological processes key to our daily lives. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to show whether board games could improve executive functions at different ages.
