A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1805-1829, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

SOIL FAUNA CHARACTERIZATION IN Eucalyptus spp. PLANTATIONS

Ciência Florestal, 2013
http://dx.doi.org/10.5902/1980509810545Forest soils provide good conditions for the development and the establishment of soil fauna, manly by the deposition of litter. However, monoculture systems conducted in a single substrate by providing food, can promote the development of certain animal groups over others, causing outbreaks of pest species.

Comparative Study of Expected Ecosystem Services and Tree Species Diversity in Residential Plots of Polluted and Unpolluted Neighborhoods in the Copper City of Lubumbashi

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural ecosystem loss and deterioration in the quality of the urban environment due to rapid urbanization associated with soil pollution by mining activity have become a huge dilemma in the mining city of Lubumbashi (DR Congo). This study aimed to assess the importance attributed to trees through the expected services, species choice and ...

PREVENTIVE AND CURATIVE CONTROL OF Oidium eucalypti IN Eucalyptus benthamii CLONAL SEEDLINGS

Revista Árvore, 2018
One of the main diseases occurring in clonal nurseries of Eucalyptus spp. is powdery mildew caused by the fungus Oidium eucalypti. This work evaluated the efficiency of biological products based on Trichoderma spp. and Bacillus spp. applied as preventive

The loss of an Indigenous‐maintained She‐Oak woodland in southeast Australia

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A 2600‐year multi‐proxy palaeoecological record (pollen, charcoal, and sediment) from Balfour Swamp, east Gippsland, reveals the persistence of an open, grassy She‐Oak woodland maintained by GunaiKurnai. This vegetation community, resilient to climatic variability and fire, was lost following the disruption of Aboriginal land management and replaced by

Silicon attenuates nutritional disorder of phosphorus in seedlings of Eucalyptus grandis × Eucalyptus urophylla

BMC Plant Biology
Background Nutritional disorders of phosphorus (P), due to deficiency or toxicity, reduce the development of Eucalyptus spp. seedlings. Phosphorus deficiency often results in stunted growth and reduced vigor, while phosphorus toxicity can lead to ...

Crescimento e morfoanatomia foliar de eucalipto sob efeito de deriva do glyphosate Leaf growth and morphoanatomy of eucalypt under the effect of glyphosate drift

Planta Daninha, 2005
Os efeitos da deriva do glyphosate durante aplicação são prejudiciais à cultura do eucalipto. Neste trabalho, avaliou-se o efeito da deriva simulada do glyphosate no crescimento e na morfoanatomia foliar do eucalipto.

Impacts of a Sweet Orange Essential Oil–Based Biopesticide on Exorista larvarum, a Parasitoid Tachinid Fly With a Dual Role

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 933-941, August 2026.
Lethal (mortality) and sublethal (fecundity, fertility) effects of the biopesticide Prev‐Am Plus (containing ~6% sweet orange essential oil) were assessed on the tachinid fly Exorista larvarum. Mated females were exposed via contact and oral routes across five concentrations (0.25%–20%) using protocols adapted from Apis mellifera.

Analysing the Ecological Requirements of the Australian Tortoise Beetle Trachymela sloanei (Blackburn, 1897) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) to Determine the Prospects for Its Invasion Process

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 955-967, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive species pose a serious threat to biodiversity and result in significant economic costs. Although much effort is devoted to understanding invasive processes, some aspects are poorly understood, such as the early stages of invasions and the reasons for invasion failure.
