Design and optimisation of rapid real‐time PCR assays for the detection of key Culicoides species

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Species‐specific real‐time PCR assays were designed and optimised using primer/probe sets targeting C. obsoletus, C. scoticus, C. chiopterus, C. dewulfi, C. pulicaris, C. punctatus and C. impunctatus. Primer specificity and amplification efficiency were validated through in silico specificity analysis and real‐time PCR amplification profiling.

Individual and combined effects of shading and habitat complexity on benthic macroinvertebrate communities in a mesocosm stream experiment (São Paulo, Brazil)

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Agricultural activities are a major driver of biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation in subtropical streams, often altering macroinvertebrate community structure and associated ecosystem functions. Although restoration strategies increasingly target these impacts, the relative importance of riparian shading and in‐stream ...

The Function of the Partially‐Opened Spathe of Pinellia pedatisecta (Araceae) as a Pitfall Pollinator Trap

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
Pinellia pedatisecta has a simplified inflorescence structure, compared to its congeners with highly specialized trap pollination systems. However, our study suggests that P. pedatisecta also captures and releases pollinating insects by the spathe movement during flowering season.

The Feeding Ecology of Invasive Pink Salmon Juveniles in Northern Norwegian Rivers and Their Role as Prey to Native Salmonids

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Increasing numbers of invasive Pacific pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) are spawning in northern Norwegian rivers, leading to large numbers of juveniles migrating to coastal waters. This raises concerns about food competition with native salmonids in rivers, although details about the timing and intensity of pink salmon feeding and the ...

Benthic Biodiversity in Subarctic Stream Networks: Headwaters as Upholders of Variation Through Space and Time

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Headwaters often contribute disproportionately to network‐scale benthic biodiversity as differences in community composition between separate headwater streams (β‐diversity) can be high although local (α) diversity may be low. Most research on stream β‐diversity has adopted a spatial perspective, whereas temporal β‐diversity remains largely ...
