Seasonal Difference of Gut Microbiota at a Stopover Site in Five Passerines of Different Migratory Behavior

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Seasonal variation significantly reshaped gut microbiota composition in migratory passerine species, whereas the resident species Suthora webbiana showed no clear seasonal shift. Species with similar migratory behaviors exhibited consistent seasonal patterns in their core gut microbiota.

Matrine–Tea Saponin Synergism Involves Suppressed Detoxification and Digestion in a Leaf Beetle

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Tea saponin and matrine showed synergistic toxicity against Plagiodera versicolora. Combined exposure suppressed digestion‐ and detoxification‐related processes, while silencing the trypsin gene Pver105950 and chitinase gene Pver001190 increased larval susceptibility to tea saponin and matrine, respectively.

Heatwave‐Resilient Cuticular Microbiota Protect the Leaf Beetle Plagiodera versicolora From Fungal Infection

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency and intensity of heatwaves—extreme thermal events characterized by prolonged supra‐optimal temperatures—exert profound impacts on global ecosystem stability and species interactions. While the disruptive effects of thermal stress on host physiology and gut microbiota are well documented, the role of cuticular ...

Changes in Site Occupancy of Marsh‐Breeding Frogs Are Associated With Surrounding Land Cover: Implications for Conservation Planning

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
To help ensure the growth and persistence of frog populations, we quantified changes in frog occurrence as a function of concurrent changes in land cover in the surrounding landscape of eight marsh‐breeding frog species, or groups of species. We used data from the Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program delivered by Birds Canada at 377 sites across four ...

Status of ash (Fraxinus spp.) in mixed hardwood post‐outbreak forests near the epicentre of the emerald ash borer invasion

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
The persistence and health of ash populations were characterized in post‐outbreak forests near the epicentre of the emerald ash borer (EAB) invasion in North America. Regenerating ash remained abundant, but densities of understory ash were higher in wetlands (hydric), while ash remained at the seedling stage in riparian (mesic) and upland (xeric ...
