Molecular Phylogeny and Strain Genotyping of the Bacterial Endosymbiont Wolbachia Associated With Tuta absoluta Populations

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 387-397, May 2026.
This study was designed to understand the association between reproductive endosymbiotic bacteria and wild and laboratory‐reared Tuta absoluta populations. The majority of T. absoluta populations showed Wolbachia presence at varying levels of infection, whereas Arsenophonus, Cardinium, and Spiroplasma were not detected. Wolbachia‐positive T.

The Ecological Factors Associated With the Survival, Establishment, and Movement of Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus: A Scoping Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 4, Page 459-474, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus are mosquito species of public health significance and collectively responsible for the transmission of several arboviruses. Ongoing climatic changes are anticipated to have impacts on their survival, establishment, and movement.

Why we age

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 911-925, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

Bioactivity Profiling of Coronarin A and Villosin Isolated From Hedychium coronarium J. Koenig: Acaricidal, Nematicidal, and Antifungal Potential

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the flowchart for the isolation and evaluation of bioactive compounds from Hedychium coronarium. Crude extracts were obtained via cold percolation from the aerial parts (flowers, leaves, and stems) using dichloromethane (DCM) and from the rhizomes using chloroform.

More Is Not Always Better: Selective Trait Filtering Governs Assembly Under Emerging Flow Intermittency

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study examined how increasing flow intermittency affects macroinvertebrate community organisation in newly drying headwater streams. Results showed that drying selectively filters species and trait states, with resistance‐ and resilience‐related survival strategies responding differently to increasing intermittency.

Interpopulation Variation in Egg Mortality in Response to Hot and Dry Conditions in North American Populations of the Invasive Tiger Mosquito, Aedes albopictus

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
North American populations of the invasive tiger mosquito exhibit genetic and phenotypic differences in egg survival in response to hot and dry conditions. ABSTRACT How wild organisms are responding to climate change is one of the most pressing issues of the 21st century.

Predicting adult mosquito (Culex pipiens) emergence in response to temperature, nutrients, and salinity

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract While human activities lead to unprecedented declines in biodiversity, mosquitoes tend to thrive in human‐disrupted environments. A high mosquito abundance is a clear risk for the transmission of vector‐borne diseases, and understanding how environmental factors influence mosquito development is crucial for better predicting their abundance ...

From barrier to gateway: Climate‐facilitated expansion of thaliaceans in the Arctic Ocean

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Thaliaceans (doliolids, pyrosomes, salps) play fundamental roles in global carbon cycling and pelagic food webs through high filtration rates and rapid reproduction. Despite their prevalence, they are virtually absent from the Arctic Ocean. This paper explores the ecological, physiological, and historical factors that may have contributed to ...
