Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.

Characteristics, Motivation, and Challenges of Global Research on Dengue Vaccination

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Due to the sharp increase in dengue infections in recent years, developing effective and regionally adapted vaccines is imperative. This requires research strategies aimed at vaccines that are free of side effects and effective for all four serotypes.

Towards physical principles of biological evolution

, 2018
Biological systems reach organizational complexity that far exceeds the complexity of any known inanimate objects. Biological entities undoubtedly obey the laws of quantum physics and statistical mechanics.

Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to recruit beneficial microbes that protect them against abiotic and biotic stresses, including diseases.

A Modelling Framework to Estimate Vector Dispersal and Disease Spread in an Important Agricultural Pathosystem

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
A model of aphid‐vectored BYDV highlights the importance of the interaction between aphid and viral genetic and species diversity on the risk presented by crop disease. The modelling framework offers a tool to explore vector–virus–host interactions and both conventional and natural controls in a spatial context.

Aphid Protected from Pathogen by Endosymbiont

Science, 2005
Aphids are associated with several facultative bacterial endosymbionts that may influence their interactions with other organisms. We show here that one of the three most common facultative symbionts of pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum), the bacterium Regiella insecticola, has a major effect on host resistance to a fungal pathogen.

Biological invasions and endosymbiosis in Arthropods, a case study:Bemisia tabaci : S1403TH01 Invasive Species and Quarantine [PDF]

, 2012
Biological invasions are more and more frequent worldwide and understanding this process is a big issue. Invasive success depends on several traits permitting local adaptation.

Distinct, Depth‐Stratified Communities of Heterotrophic, Mixotrophic, and Parasitic Dinoflagellates and Ciliates in the Subarctic Northeast Pacific Euphotic Zone

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Dinoflagellates and ciliates are important grazers of primary production in the Northeast Pacific but knowledge of their taxonomic composition and depth‐distribution is limited. These organisms also display a variety of heterotrophic feeding modes including heterotrophy, mixotrophy, and parasitism.

The Effects of Different Light Spectra, UV and Extreme Temperature on the Physiology of Endosymbiotic Jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda

Marine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The endosymbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda represents a yet untapped marine species that could be targeted as a new source for bioproducts, including food and feed. Also, the potential use of contained valuable ingredients, such as carotenoids and other antioxidants, under controlled aquaculture conditions might be a particularly ...
