Leaf‐chewing but not sap‐feeding herbivores create soil legacies that shape plant resistance through trait‐mediated, guild‐specific effects in Baccharis salicifolia

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Herbivory can affect the soil microbiome, creating legacies that affect plant resistance, but how these effects vary by feeding guild and the plant traits involved remain underexplored. We tested how soil legacies created by a leaf‐chewing caterpillar (Spodoptera exigua)

Does nocturnal light pollution impair immune function in a wild‐living amphibian?

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Light pollution is among the most rapidly growing anthropogenic stressors on Earth. As it spreads far beyond its original source, it affects natural protected areas playing a key role in protecting biodiversity.

Social immunity in a supercolonial invasive ant: Nest structure confers immune function

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first examination of social immunity in a supercolonial ant subject to attack by a specialist internally infecting pathogen. It is also the first study to directly manipulate the nest template to see how space shapes the outcome of social immune behaviours.

Host‐associated beneficial gut microbiota boosts induced immunity and limits immune deployment costs in bumblebees

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our work demonstrates a key role for host‐associated microbiota in the realization of induced immune defense, and contributes more broadly to our understanding of microbiota‐immune interactions in the context of ecological immunology. Abstract Ecological immunology posits that variation in host resistance to infection may be attributed partly to the ...

Successional and native forests predict the occurrence and infection status of Chagas disease vectors in Panama

Journal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
Findings here show that successional forest predicts greater kissing bug infestation risk in palm trees, whereas native forest predicts lower kissing bug occurrence but greater infection with T. cruzi. These insights can guide land use planning towards vegetation management practices that help minimize T. cruzi transmission risks for rural communities.
