Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review
Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.

Groundwater Changes the Climate Niche of an Amazonian Mound‐Building Termite
Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.ABSTRACT Rainfall is a major dimension of species climate niches. It has been proposed that groundwater can change species responses to rainfall by creating ‘hydrological refugia’ under a drier climate. However, the available evidence is conflicting and biased towards plants.

Present knowledge of the Entomofauna of the Maltese Islands [PDF]
, 2000 The Maltese Islands' strategic position in the centre of the Mediterranean basin and in between the Siculo Tunisian sill, always encouraged a number of foreign naturalists to visit and study their local entomofauna.

Horizontal transfer of boron by the Formosan subterranean termite (Coptotermes formosanau Shiraki) after feeding on treated wood [PDF]
, 2009 The goal of the present study was to determine whether Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki workers exposed to boron-treated wood were capable of transferring quantifiable amounts of boron to non-exposed nestmates.

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 54-64, January 2026.This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Termites (Isoptera: Termitidae) infestation is a key constraint to maize production in Uganda. This study was conducted to determine the effect of integrating planting time and imidacloprid‐treated wood sawdust in the control of termites. Three experiments were established at Ikulwe Satellite Station in Mayuge in 2017B, 2018A, and 2018B in a randomized

The complete mitochondrial genome of Reticulitermes periflaviceps (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019 The mitochondrial genome of the Reticulitermes periflaviceps contains 15,925 bp of nucleotide in length including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transport RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and a non-coding region. The overall A + T among the genome sequence is 65.64%.

Soil Traversing Arthropod Populations as Sampled by Pitfall Traps in Sunflower and Three Adjacent Habitats in Northeast Arkansas [PDF]
, 1982 Soil traversing arthropod populations were sampled by pitfall traps in sunflower (Helianthus spp.) and three adjacent habitats during the months of July, August and September of 1980 and May, June, July and August of 1981.
