Changes in enzymatic activity and oxidative stress in honeybees kept in the apiary and laboratory conditions during the course of nosemosis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in the level of oxidative stress and lysozyme-like and phenoloxidase (PO) activity under the influence of nosemosis. Honeybees were kept in natural (apiary) and artificial (laboratory) conditions.

Computer Vision for Monitoring Wild Bees and Wasps: A Structured Literature Review

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This review surveys recent (2020–2026) computer vision research on automated monitoring of wild bees and wasps, covering tasks such as species detection, habitat observation, and behavior analysis. It analyzes datasets, public resources, hardware, and software development.

Semi‐Quantitative Monitoring of Plant‐Arthropod Interactions by eDNA Metabarcoding of Individual Flowers and Leaves

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Terrestrial eDNA analysis is currently revolutionizing our ability to monitor arthropod plant interactions. But while the approach has been shown to accurately recover arthropod communities which interacted with a flower, its quantitative capabilities are limited.

Light and Pollination Limitation Alter Patterns of Fitness and Phenotypic Selection in Sagittaria trifolia L.: Insights From Sequential Inflorescences

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We examined how light limitation and reduced pollinator access influence female fitness and phenotypic selection in Sagittaria trifolia across sequential inflorescences. Open‐grown plants produced the most inflorescences, flowers, and seeds, whereas mesh‐enclosed plants compensated for low early fruit set through later reproductive adjustment and ...

The growth of microbial ecology research in a selection of the Ecological Society of America's portfolio of journals

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Early in the inception of ecology as a field of science, microorganisms have been known to play a role in ecosystems. The growth of the portfolio of journals from the Ecological Society of America (ESA) correlates to an increase in the studies of microbial ecology through time.

Trapped honey bees reduce floral visitation on milkweed flowers

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Trapped arthropods have been shown to benefit plants in several ways, but few studies have examined the potential costs of arthropod entanglement. Milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) have an unusual pollination system that requires relatively large packets of pollen (pollinia) to become attached to the appendages of insect pollinators and be pulled ...

Beyond Average Hive Performance: Tail Risk Measurement in Italian Apiculture With Honey‐at‐Risk

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper provides a framework for measuring honey‐production risk that complements standard mean‐based analyses by explicitly targeting downside tail risk. Using hive‐weight data from a large sample of Italian hives over the period 2021–2024, downside tail risk is quantified through the Honey‐at‐Risk (HaR) metric, defined as the quantile of ...

Progressive Cellularization of Blastoderm and Extraembryonic Tissue Formation in the Ant Camponotus floridanus

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 5, Page 411-421, July 2026.
Illustration of the process of cellularization in Camponotus floridanus (top row) compared to Drosophila melanogaster (bottom row). Progressive direct formation of differentiating blastoderm mode is depicted using hexagons that represent energids (without borders) and cells (with borders). Colors of nuclei represent different cell types.

Flowering out of sync: Climate change alters the reproductive phenology of Terminalia paniculata in the Western Ghats of India

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1322-1333, July 2026.
Understanding how climate change impacts the plant life cycle is critical for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. Our findings suggest that Terminalia paniculata Roth, a common tropical deciduous tree species in the Western Ghats, is now flowering and fruiting at more scattered times than it used to in the past.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1091-1107, July 2026.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.
