Molecular identification of Trichogramma Westwood, 1833 species as egg parasitoids of Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner, 1796) in corn production areas of Sakarya province in Türkiye (Insecta: Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera)

open access: yesSHILAP
The study focuses on using ITS2 sequences from rDNA for systematic studies of Trichogramma Westwood, 1833 species. ITS2 sequences have shown to be reliable in distinguishing Trichogramma species.

Accounting for Intra‐ and Intergenomic Sequence Variation in Reference Barcodes Improves eDNA Metabarcoding Biodiversity Assessment

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can rapidly characterise biodiversity, yet its accuracy and effectiveness are limited by incomplete DNA barcode reference databases. We evaluated how comprehensive reference databases that include sequence variation within genomes (intragenomic) and across individuals and species (intergenomic) improve ...

Impact of Fire and Heat Stress on Soil Microorganisms: A Review of Community Changes, Molecular Responses and Plant‐Beneficial Roles

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This work reviewed the direct and indirect effects of fires on microbial communities and the resilience strategies microbes use to withstand high temperatures . ABSTRACT Fire, whether occurring on the surface or underground, significantly influences soil microbial dynamics by reshaping community composition, functional diversity and overall soil and ...

Pollinator Visitation Alters Cranberry Flower Fungal Communities in Wisconsin Cranberry Agroecosystems

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
A two‐year study reveals shared fungal communities between cranberry flowers and insect visitors, including Apis mellifera, Bombus species, solitary bees and hover flies. Greater fungal richness was present in pollinator‐accessible flowers compared to those that were tented.

Comparative Amplicon and Shotgun Metagenome Profiling of Soil Microbial Communities in Kauri Forests Affected by Phytophthora agathidicida

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Soils beneath symptomatic and asymptomatic kauri trees were analysed using LAMP, amplicon sequencing, shotgun metagenomics, and PICRUSt2. LAMP detected Phytophthora agathidicida in 39/60 samples, while shotgun metagenomics detected it at low abundance across all samples.

Multi‐barcoding‐based species identification using a hierarchical attention network with staged curriculum learning

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1143-1160, April 2026.
Abstract DNA barcode‐based species identification has become pivotal in biodiversity research. Current barcoding‐based deep learning methods have advantages in species identification but exhibit significant limitations. By using COI barcoding alone, previous studies were unable to fully capture species identification features. Prior methods showed that

Bacteriophage and Fusidic Acid Have Synergistic Effect Against Meticillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in Ex Vivo Canine Dermis Model

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 200-210, April 2026.
Background: Antimicrobial stewardship has become vital given the progressive emergence of multidrug‐resistant bacteria, and novel approaches to the treatment of bacterial infections are needed. Recently, reported synergistic effects of antibacterial drugs and bacteriophage therapy have revealed promising applications for the management of meticillin ...

POLYMORPHISM AND INTERSPECIFIC VARIABILITY OF CYTOCHROME OXYDASE SUBUNIT I (COI) GENE NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE IN SIBLING SPECIES of A AND B Anopheles messeae AND An. beklemishevi (DIPTERA: CULICIDAE)

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2014
Species identification of159 individuals of the Anopheles maculipennis complex from 5 localities ofUral andSiberia was conductedbyPCR-RFLP ITS2. The DNA sequences ofa COI gene fragment were determinedin 124 individuals from the localities.
