Differential Phoretic Vector Use Among Sympatric Caenorhabditis Nematodes and an Association With Invasive Nitidulid Beetles in Southwestern Germany

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We show evidence for differential host use among the three sympatric Caenorhabditis, and a novel association with nitidulid beetles for C. apta sp. n. This information adds to our understanding of host invertebrate use across the Caenorhabditis phylogeny, highlighting potential evolutionary transitions in host use in need of further study.

The Amphioxus SoxB Family: Implications for the Evolution of Vertebrate Placodes [PDF]

, 2007
Cranial placodes are regions of thickened ectoderm that give rise to sense organs and ganglia in the vertebrate head. Homologous structures are proposed to exist in urochordates, but have not been found in cephalochordates, suggesting the first chordates

Comparative Analysis Reveals the Adaptive Evolution of Olfactory System in the Swamp Eel (Monopterus albus) Based on the Chromosome‐Level Genome

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A total of 629 gene families were identified to expand in the swamp eel, with five (OLFR, GNAL, PRKG1, NCALD, and PDE1) distributed in olfactory transduction (KEGG map04740). A total of 318 OR genes (289 functional genes, 10 partial genes, and 19 pseudogenes) were annotated in the swamp eel genome, significantly surpassing other fish species.

Establishment and analysis of a reference transcriptome for Spodoptera frugiperda [PDF]

, 2014
International audienceBackground Spodoptera frugiperda (Noctuidae) is a major agricultural pest throughout the American continent. The highly polyphagous larvae are frequently devastating crops of importance such as corn, sorghum, cotton and grass.

Transcriptomic and DNA Methylation Profiles of Alternative Aphid Morphs and Genotypes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Graph showing the correlation between differentially expressed genes and differentially methylated genes. There is no correlation between gene expression and DNA methylation level in pea aphid polyphenism. ABSTRACT Pea aphids can develop alternative morphs when exposed to stressful conditions, showing differences between genotypes in their stress ...

A cnidarian homologue of an insect gustatory receptor functions in developmental body patterning. [PDF]

, 2015
Insect gustatory and odorant receptors (GRs and ORs) form a superfamily of novel transmembrane proteins, which are expressed in chemosensory neurons that detect environmental stimuli.

Reprogrammable All‐Photonic Molecular Logic With Ln3+ Luminescent Hybrids in Solid State

Laser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 20, Issue 9, 6 May 2026.
Mario P. de‐Saralegui et al. report an Eu3⁺/Tb3⁺‐doped organic–inorganic hybrid material that enables multiple reprogrammable logic operations using only physical stimuli. Additionally, this solid‐state, all‐photonic platform represents the first example in the literature performing reversible Feynman logic operations, marking a major step toward ...

Female Behaviour Drives Expression and Evolution of Gustatory Receptors in Butterflies [PDF]

, 2013
Secondary plant compounds are strong deterrents of insect oviposition and feeding, but may also be attractants for specialist herbivores. These insect-plant interactions are mediated by insect gustatory receptors (Grs) and olfactory receptors (Ors).

XIAP Deficiency Impairs Colonic Tuft Cell Development and Predisposes to Crohn's Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
XIAP deficiency leads to impaired colonic tuft cells development and JAK–‐STAT pathway hyperactivation in CD patients and mice. Mechanically, XIAP regulates tuft cells development through Wnt–‐TLE4/TCF–‐ASCL2 signaling. Tuft cells deficiency predisposes XIAP‑‐deficient CD patients or Xiap−/−‐/‐ mice to hazardous microbial effects, driving colonic ...

Transition From Land to Sea: Comparative Genomics Illuminates the Adaptive Evolution of the Intertidal Spider

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...
