Exploring the Development of Wild Microbiomes in the Eastern Fence Lizard

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
We used 16S rRNA gene sequencing to profile the bacterial community from the guts of wild Eastern Fence Lizards. Microbiome profiles were collected at four distinct time points when lizards were actively foraging in the environment and across four age groups, aiming to characterise the natural variation in bacterial diversity.

Comparing Methods for Measuring Predation: Toward a Quantitative–Informative Indicator of Natural Pest Control

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 801-811, August 2026.
Predation methods vary widely in their ability to quantify biological control. Estimating predation rates (the number of prey killed per predator per time unit) is crucial. Combining predation rates with predator abundance yields real‐time field estimates of pests consumed.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Swine Manure‐Derived Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens L.) Frass Enhances Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) Vegetative Growth and Soil Epigeic Macro‐Arthropod Abundance

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 945-954, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of swine production has increased environmental concerns related to nutrient pollution and improper manure management. Black soldier fly (BSF) larvae offer a promising bioconversion approach, producing frass that may serve as a sustainable organic fertiliser.

Dietary nutgrass (Cyperus rotundus) extract–loaded chitosan nanoparticles: Enhance growth performance, boost immune responses, improve antioxidant capacity, and physiological performance in white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Aquaculture has increasingly turned toward plant extracts' usage as functional additives, owing to their rich content of bioactive compounds that enhance growth performance, boost immune responses, and improve antioxidant capacity in cultured species.
