Forecasting the Risk of Reinvasion by the Giant African Snail in Ogasawara, Japan

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study used SDMs constructed in multiple regions to predict the suitable habitats of Achatina fulica on Chichijima in the Ogasawara Islands. The model constructed on another island with a wide distribution range showed the highest predictive accuracy.

Effects of Organic Xenobiotics on Tenebrio molitor Larvae and Their Parasite Gregarina polymorpha

Biology
Environmental contamination with xenobiotics affects organisms and the symbiotic relations between them. A convenient object to study relationships between parasites and their hosts is the host–parasite system “Tenebrio molitor Linnaeus, 1758 (Coleoptera,

Innate and specific immunity in plants
Imunidade inata e específica em plantas

Semina: Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde, 2009
Plants and animals are able to recognize and distinguish between self and non-self molecular structures. Recent studies concerning host-parasite relations have presented the common and contrasting mechanisms of host resistance in both plants and animals.
