Genetic Insights Into Human‐Driven Hybridization, Cultural Shifts, and Ecological Consequences of Feral Pigs (Sus scrofa) in Hawai‘i

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Polynesian pigs were brought to the Hawaiian Islands with Polynesian settlement in the mid‐1200s and represent part of the cultural legacy of Hawai‘i. Yet, the introduction of European pigs since 1778 and onward has put into question the ancestral composition of contemporary animals, and conservation efforts have been challenged by tension between the ...

Development of an eco‐friendly RNAi yeast attractive targeted sugar bait that silences the shaker gene in spotted‐wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 732-741, January 2026.
This study discusses a promising new attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) technology using yeast that expresses shRNA targeting essential genes in the fruit pest spotted‐wing drosophila (SWD). The yeast, which is delivered using soda as a sugar bait, could one day be an effective component in integrated SWD control programs.

Oviposition in the blood-sucking insect Rhodnius prolixus is modulated by host odors [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Triatomine bugs are blood-sucking insects, vectors of Chagas disease. Despite their importance, their oviposition behavior has received relatively little attention. Some triatomines including Rhodnius prolixus stick their eggs to a substrate.

Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon in Raptors and Other Captive Birds at the National Zoological Garden in South Africa

Integrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 203-213, January 2026.
Captive birds at the National Zoological Garden in South Africa harbor diverse haemosporidian parasite species and lineages. This might compromise conservation efforts of threatened species. ABSTRACT Avian haemosporidian infections have been associated with disease outbreaks in zoos and rehabilitation centers globally. This study aimed to determine the

Impact of Bifenthrin on Honeybees and Culex quinquefasciatus

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2010
The impact of bifenthrin on honeybees, Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae) was evaluated in both laboratory and semifield assays. Ten serial dilutions of bifenthrin and an acetone control using the bottle bioassay protocol were used in the laboratory to determine killing time after 15-, 30-, and 60-min honeybee exposure.

Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus: a potential vector to transmit Zika virus

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2016
Zika virus (ZIKV) has become a threat to global health since the outbreak in Brazil in 2015. Although ZIKV is generally considered an Aedes-transmitted pathogen, new evidence has shown that parts of the virus closely resemble Culex-transmitted viruses ...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Blood Parasite Infections and Impacts on Avian Health and Reproduction

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 24, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Parasitic infections are ubiquitous in nature, but their consequences are often difficult to evaluate in wildlife. This is particularly the case for chronic infections for which fitness impacts can be subtle or confounded with other intrinsic and extrinsic factors.
