Combined digestion of insect frass and cow manure for biogas production

open access: yes, 2022
In an experiment described by Elissen et al. (2019) on anaerobic digestion of black soldierfly (BSF, Hermetia illucens) larvae frass, the frass had been previously hygienised due to Dutch law. However, when the frass would stay on the same premises this hygienisation step may not be necessary.

Dynamics of short- and long-term association between a bacterial plant pathogen and its arthropod vector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The dynamics of association between pathogens and vectors can strongly influence epidemiology. It has been proposed that wilt disease epidemics in cucurbit populations are sustained by persistent colonization of beetle vectors (Acalymma vittatum) by the ...

Trichosporon siamense sp. nov. isolated from insect frass in Thailand

open access: yesMycoscience, 2006
A strain of yeast isolated from insect frass collected in Thailand was found to represent a hitherto undescribed species of a basidiomycetous anamorphic genus Trichosporon. It is described as Trichosporon siamense. In the phylogenetic tree based on the D1/D2 region sequences of 26S rDNA, this yeast constitutes a cluster with several Q-9 having species ...

Isolation of two molecular types of Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii from insect frass [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Mycology, 2003
Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii has regularly been the cause of serious human disease. However, the environmental sources of these infections often remain unclear. During an environmental sampling study, two different strains of C. neoformans var.

Specificity Between Lactobacilli And Hymenopteran Hosts Is The Exception Rather Than The Rule [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Lactobacilli (Lactobacillales: Lactobacillaceae) are well known for their roles in food fermentation, as probiotics, and in human health, but they can also be dominant members of the microbiota of some species of Hymenoptera (ants, bees, and wasps ...

Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (

Mycotoxins‐contaminated wheat matrices bioconversion by Tenebrio molitor larvae (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Larval development time, ADG, survival rate and substrate consumption were not negatively affected by the levels of mycotoxins contamination Larvae excreted most of the ingested DON and its derivatives through exuviae and frass The mycotoxin accumulation rates observed in larvae were always below the current legal limits for livestock feed Abstract ...
