Cost of parasite exposure depends on host ontogeny 寄生接觸的代價依賴於宿主發育階段

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The cost of parasite exposure varies across host developmental stages, demonstrating that ontogeny influences the expression of non‐consumptive effects (NCEs). Mite exposure resulted in consumptive effects in fly eggs and NCEs in early‐stage pupae; mite longevity was comparable when provisioned with pupae or water but increased when provisioned with ...

TbTim20 facilitates protein import at a low membrane potential in trypanosomes lacking the mitochondrial genome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Protein import into mitochondria relies on TIM complexes and the membrane potential. Trypanosoma brucei has a unique TIM complex, and the role of one subunit, TbTim20, has remained unclear. Here, we show that TbTim20 is essential in cells lacking mitochondrial DNA. The importance of TbTim20 increases as the membrane potential decreases.

GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THE RESISTANCE OF TERMINAL CROSS CALVES TO TICK Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus AND HORN FLY Haematobia irritans

Challenges in population monitoring: Bar‐tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica) on the East Atlantic Flyway defy assumed population structure

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Estimating and monitoring migratory bird populations involves significant challenges, even in the most well‐studied and easily‐counted species, and can be further complicated by long‐held but unverified assumptions and by shifting distributions in changing flyway conditions.

Fight song: variation in singing behaviour and song structure during natural agonistic interactions in a tropical songbird, Adelaide's Warbler (Setophaga adelaidae)

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Birds may use their singing behaviours and song structure as agonistic signals in territorial encounters. We conducted an observational study to test this hypothesis in male Adelaide's Warblers Setophaga adelaidae, a tropical songbird that defends a territory year‐round.
