Hidden Fungal Diversity of the Precious Mediterranean Red Coral Corallium rubrum

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
This study reveals diverse cultivable fungi associated with the red coral Corallium rubrum, highlighting both potentially beneficial and pathogenic species. These findings emphasize the biotechnological relevance and ecological impact of coral‐associated fungi, especially as climate change may increase disease risks.

Olfaction in the Colorado beetle at the onset of host plant selection [PDF]

, 1979
Long-range olfactory orientation of the adult Colorado beetle was studied in a low- speed wind tunnel. The odour of fully grown potato plants elicits an upwind locomotory response in Colorado beetles (odour-conditioned positive anemotaxis), and increases

Stimuli‐Responsive 3D‐Printed Structurally Colored Materials Based on Core–Shell Particle Architectures

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 3, March 2026.
A novel, structurally colored and pH‐responsive filament for FDM 3D‐printing is presented, which is based on tailored core–shell particles with methacrylic acid as a comonomer in the particle shell. The pH‐responsiveness of the printed objects is achieved due to particle swelling in alkaline conditions.

Surveillance of ash trees under multiple threats: Integrating emerald ash borer and ash dieback dynamics with stakeholder behaviour

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
Tree‐health policies must balance identifying likely entry points and deployment of traps, targeted information campaigns and surveillance subsidies for land managers. Our unique, cross‐disciplinary approach can be applied to other pest/pathogen systems to inform tree‐health plans and how to balance resources.

Cryptic diversity and signs of mitochondrial introgression in the Agrilus viridis species complex (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2014
The jewel beetle genus Agrilus (Buprestidae), with approximately 2880 recognized species, is taxonomically challenging due to the great similarity of species.

Double Bouligand Printed Twisted Stacks: Mirrored Chiroptical Polarization and Enhanced Compressive Mechanics

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 2, 14 January 2026.
This work demonstrates the production of nature‐inspired double Bouligand structures via shear‐aligning cellulose nanocrystals for comparison against more commonly studied single Bouligand architecture. Optical and mechanical analysis shows retained chiroptical polarization and increased mechanical integrity under compression elucidated with ...

A Novel YOLOv2‐Guided Region of Interest Encryption Framework Based on Elliptic Curve, DNA Computing and Chaotic Dynamics

IET Image Processing, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper introduces a hybrid image encryption method that combines DNA coding, elliptic curve cryptography and chaotic systems to securely protect specific regions of interest identified by you only look once, version 2. The approach achieves high security through near‐ideal entropy and resilience against attacks, making it particularly suitable for ...

No genetic differentiation among populations up to 300 km apart in three species of carrion beetles

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 953-967, December 2025.
Habitat fragmentation threatens biodiversity by disrupting gene flow; understanding species' dispersal abilities is key to determining whether they are limited by habitat or mobility. Carrion beetles show no significant population genetic structure across up to 320 km, indicating high dispersal ability and unrestricted gene flow.

Molecular Techniques and Ecological Data for Taxonomically Difficult Groups: A Case Study of a Morphologically Variable New Species in the Genus Chrysobothris (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)

Insects
Morphological characters of beetles can differ greatly, even within a single species, necessitating the integration of molecular techniques and ecological data for accurate taxonomical delineation, particularly within taxonomically challenging groups ...
