Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.Moderate manual thinning (50F) maintained arthropod diversity comparable to untreated controls while reducing shrub dominance, demonstrating that structural heterogeneity buffers biodiversity loss during rangeland restoration in Namibian bush‐encroached systems. These findings advocate mosaic debushing strategies that preserve vegetation complexity and

The complete mitochondrial genome of drywood termite, Incisitermes minor (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018 The complete mitochondrial genome of drywood termite, Incisitermes minor, is reported in this study. The circular mitogenome has a length of 15,970 bp and encodes 37 genes including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), two ribosomal ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Stable isotope analysis indicates that fragmentation and habitat loss in semideciduous dry forests in the Brazilian Cerrado drive trophic niche shifts in Gracilinanus agilis, with potential consequences for its role as a seed disperser. ABSTRACT Habitat loss and fragmentation have notable effects on species' trophic ecology, often most pronounced in ...

Sociobiology, 2021 Some of termites have been introduced outside their native ranges, and it has been suggested that both wood-eating and wood-nesting lifestyles are critical for the transportation of propagules.

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 875-888, May 2026.This study demonstrates the ecological value of natural regeneration in the Brazilian Cerrado by analysing the biomass, richness and trophic structure of leaf litter insects across pasture (P), regenerating (R) and native (N) areas. We found that R areas supported insect communities more similar to N habitats than to Ps, with higher richness, greater ...

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 298-313, May 2026.Out of 136 identified EPNs, only 18 (8 Steinernema and 6 Heterorhabditis) are commercialised globally, highlighting a major gap between discovery and application. High production costs and inconsistent field efficacy are the leading obstacles to the widespread commercialisation of EPN‐based biocontrol products.

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 956-968, April 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Urbanization represents one of the major anthropogenic alterations of the Earth's surface, with significant impacts on biodiversity and its functions. Soil animals are essential components of biodiversity, and their trophic interactions play integral roles in the ...
