Biochemical Responses of Anopheles spp. Larvae to a Novel Brazilian BR101 Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis Formulation: Oxidative Stress, Detoxification Enzymes, and Safety for Nontarget Notonectidae and Gerridae Aquatic Insects

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
Bti BR101 exhibits strong larvicidal activity against Anopheles larvae spp., with dose‐dependent mortality and LC50 of 3.13 µg/mL. Bti increases ROS, lipid and protein oxidation, and activates antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GPx) and detoxification pathways (MFO and esterases), indicating moderate oxidative stress.

Metabolomic Analysis of Phytophthora parasitica Growth in the Presence of β‐sitosterol Indicates Adaptive Mechanisms Modulated by Sterols

Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Phytophthora parasitica is a generalist phytopathogenic oomycete that infects a series of crops with great economic interest, including tomato, tobacco, and citrus species. Sterols are essential lipids in eukaryotic organisms, playing a fundamental role in the structure and function of the cell membrane.

Establishment and Application of a Novel Protein Microarray for Serological Detection and Differentiation of Senecavirus A

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Senecavirus A (SVA) is an emerging swine pathogen that causes vesicular disease, which presents clinically indistinguishable signs from other vesicular diseases. To enable differentiation of infected from vaccinated animals (DIVA), we developed a novel protein microarray for dual serological detection of antibodies against SVA structural (VP2‐VP3‐VP1 ...

The crucial role of meshing in computational fluid dynamics simulations for organic geometries in paleobiology: Describing fluid dynamics performance through best practices

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2170-2194, October 2025.
Abstract Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an essential tool for studying fluid interactions in biological systems. While widely used in engineering, its application in the natural sciences, particularly in paleobiology, remains limited due to the challenges of meshing complex organic geometries.

The interplay between virus infection and water‐related stress is mediated by the plant metabolism of ascorbic acid

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 1, Page 265-280, July 2025.
Summary Plants are often subjected to environmental variations in the context of infection such that virus‐induced and abiotic stresses co‐occur. One such environmental variation is water stress, which strongly impacts plant fitness. Although there is ample evidence of the beneficial effects of plant viruses under drought, the consequences of infection

Short‐ and Long‐Term Growth Response to Multiple Drought Episodes: Evidence of Genetic Adaptation in a Conifer Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Tree ring analysis was applied to 1281 mature lodgepole pine trees growing in four common gardens in central Alberta, Canada. Drought indices were used to assess resistance, resilience, and a structural equation model was used to analyze the relationship between these metrics of drought recovery and susceptibility to disease.

Determination of S‐Allele Combination in an Italian Apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) Germplasm Core Collection

Plant Breeding, Volume 144, Issue 2, Page 249-256, April 2025.
ABSTRACT An S‐RNase‐based gametophytic self‐incompatibility (GSI) system, a mechanism that forces outbreeding by preventing self‐fertilization, characterizes the genus Malus. Knowledge of the self‐incompatibility (S) genotypes of apple cultivars is crucial for choosing pollen donors for fruit production and breeding.

Remove saplings early: Cost‐effective strategies to contain tree invasions and prevent their impacts

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 661-676, March 2025.
Our highest‐ranking strategies represent management actions to start implementing in the field as part of an adaptive management plan that iteratively evaluates the validity of our simulation model and updates the management recommendations. Our study can be applied to guide management of invasive pines and replicated with any invasive woody species ...

Capacity and capability of remote sensing to inform invasive plant species management in the Pacific Islands region

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract The Pacific Islands region is home to several of the world's biodiversity hotspots, yet its unique flora and fauna are under threat because of biological invasions. These invasions are likely to proliferate as human activity increases and large‐scale natural disturbances unfold, exacerbated by climate change. Remote sensing data and techniques

Toward Sustainable Biocultural Ecotourism: An Integrated Spatial Analysis of Cultural and Biodiversity Richness in Colombia

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 194-214, January 2025.
Abstract Ecotourism plays a vital role in both economic development and depending on the scale, it can also aid environmental conservation. Ecotourism planning often considers culture‐based and nature‐based tourism separately, failing to recognize the synergies between them, with the potential to market locations as biocultural destinations.
