Fungal backpackers—the mycobiome of Ips typographus after more than 80 years of research

Frontiers in Microbiology
The European spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus, primarily colonizes Norway spruce and plays a pivotal ecological and economic role across Eurasia. Over decades, numerous studies have identified fungal species associated with I.

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks

Oikos, EarlyView.
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.

Butterfly and moth habitat specialisation changes along an elevational gradient of tropical forests on Mount Cameroon

Oikos, EarlyView.
Niche breadth, reflecting the range of environmental conditions or resources a species can exploit, influences its distribution, persistence, vulnerability to environmental change, and interspecific interactions. The elevational niche‐breadth hypothesis predicts broader ecological niches at higher elevations due to increased environmental stress and ...

Characterisation of bacteria‐induced colitis and its modulation by probiotics in naked mole rats: a new mammalian model for acute inflammatory disease

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Enteropathogenic bacteria are a major cause of morbidity and mortality globally. While mouse models have been indispensable in advancing our understanding of infectious enteric diseases, key differences in intestinal microbiota and immunobiology between mice and humans underscore the need for alternative mammalian models that better ...

New Insights into the Phenology and Overwintering Biology of Glyptapanteles porthetriae, a Parasitoid of Lymantria dispar

Insects
Glyptapanteles porthetriae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a solitary larval endoparasitoid of the spongy moth, Lymantria dispar (Lepidoptera: Erebidae). Previous studies suggested that only the spring generation of the wasp parasitizes early instars of L ...
