eDNA metabarcoding of archived leaf samples reveals arthropod diversity decline in South Korean but not in German forest ecosystems

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Environmental samples from the South Korean (A) and German (B) Environmental Specimen Banks were analysed regarding long‐term trends in canopy‐associated arthropod communities over 11 years. Samples of both Environmental Specimen Banks showed tree species‐specific arthropod communities that were significantly different from other tree species ...

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce

SYNCAS‐mediated CRISPR‐Cas9 genome editing in the Jewel wasp, Nasonia vitripennis

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Maternal injection of Cas9 RNP together with BAPC and saponins (SYNCAS) results in efficient gene editing of Nasonia vitripennis offspring. The timing of injection and egg collection is important for maximising efficiency and reducing screening effort.

Impact of Mulches on Floral Visitors in Day‐Neutral Strawberries and Contribution of Syrphid Flies to Strawberry Pollination

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animal‐mediated pollination is essential for the production of many specialty crops, with insects, primarily bees, serving as the predominant pollinators in many agroecosystems. However, increasing management problems with honey bees and declines in native bee populations due to various environmental stressors have highlighted the importance ...
