Some properties of a mechanism delaying penetration of insecticides into houseflies

open access: yes, 1970
The penetration of insecticides into houseflies, with and without the factor that delays penetration, was studied by measuring the amounts of the insecticides on the surface of the flies at intervals after treatment.

Diversity of the Microbiomes in the Larval and Adult Stages of the European Cherry Fruit Fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) and Identification of Potential Biocontrol Candidate Taxa

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
First comprehensive characterization of the R. cerasi microbiome is reported. Stage‐specific variations in microbial composition are documented. Multiple bacterial entomopathogen taxa are identified as potential biocontrol candidates for R. cerasi.

Full‐length coding sequence analysis of the voltage‐gated sodium channel and acetylcholinesterase genes reveals target‐site mutations and acetylcholinesterase gene duplication in housefly (Musca domestica) populations in Japanese livestock barns

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
We simultaneously analysed insecticide resistance mutations in VGSC and AChE using NGS and hybridization probe capture in houseflies collected from livestock facilities for the first time. Resistance mutations in both VGSC and AChE were detected in most wild populations, suggesting widespread distribution of resistance genes.

Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.

How dispersal and habitat quality shape aquatic–terrestrial metacommunities

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Current changes in land use, predominantly from agriculture and urbanization, affect both habitat quality and species dispersal ability. Understanding how these factors influence species distributions in aquatic–terrestrial metacommunities is critical for predicting community dynamics.

Efficient Separation and Purification of Oligosaccharides: A Systematic Review on Principles and Applications of Membrane Separation Technology

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 290-313, June 2026.
Membrane separation provides a green and scalable route for oligosaccharide purification. This review summarizes the complementary roles of microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis, with emphasis on membrane selection, optimization of operating conditions, fouling control, and integrated cascade design for improving purity,

Exploring Floristic Diversity and Medicinal Plant Uses in Venda, Limpopo, South Africa

open access: yesFeddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants have been an important source of medicine for thousands of years. To better understand the current diversity and usage of medicinal plants, floristic studies are essential. This report documents an expedition conducted in the Venda region of Limpopo, South Africa. The study was carried out in Shanzha and surrounding villages, as well as

Sex Determination in Sponges

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sex determination in Porifera remains one of the least understood aspects of early metazoan biology despite the group's key phylogenetic position. Sponges display exceptional diversity in sexual systems—ranging from stable gonochorism to sequential hermaphroditism and sex reversal—yet lack morphological dimorphism and any discrete gonadal ...

Intracellular Concentration of Electrolytes in the Housefly [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1969
THE concentrations of blood Na and K in the adult housefly, Musca domestica, fed a normal diet of milk and sugar are fairly constant. The usual amounts are Na, 109–140 mequiv./l., 0.11–0.14 M (2.4–3.2 (µg/µl.); K, 0.0–4 mequiv./l., 0.0–0.004 M (0.0–0.16 µg/µl.). Blood cells contain very small quantities of these ions.
