Home range size, habitat selection, and mycophagy of sympatric North American flying squirrels

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus) is a mycophagous specialist (i.e., having a fungi‐dominated diet) which might be displaced following northward range expansion by the congeneric southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans). Loss of the northern flying squirrel could, in turn, limit fungi spore dispersal in forest communities ...

An investigation into the transcription factors and regulatory mechanisms of Aspergillus

Food Safety and Health, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 282-299, July 2025.
Foodborne pathogen Aspergillus, a prevalent etiologic agent among filamentous fungi, are distinguished by a significant repertoire of transcription factors encoded within their genomes. These regulatory proteins are instrumental in orchestrating key biological processes, including cellular growth, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, mycotoxin production,

A framework for long‐term environmental monitoring using living plant collections in botanic gardens: A global review and case study from Trinity College Botanic Garden

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 954-968, July 2025.
Botanic gardens play a crucial role in addressing global environmental challenges by providing a unique setting for long‐term plant studies and engaging the public in climate change awareness. Our review highlights the underuse of these gardens' living collections for monitoring climate impacts, revealing significant gaps in data and phylogenetic ...

Mycophagous behavior by small mammals observed through camera traps in a riparian forest fragment in Southwestern São Paulo, Brazil

Lilloa
Macrofungi play a crucial role in forest ecosystems by decomposing organic matter and influencing nutrient dynamics. They are characterized by the production of visible reproductive structures known as sporomes, commonly referred to as mushrooms ...

Gastritis over Gastrisus Sharp (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Xanthopygina): Resolving a major taxonomic impediment with phylogenomics

Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 449-468, July 2025.
Comprehensive phylogeny of Xanthopygina rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), including 30 of 33 genera, was generated by anchored hybrid enrichment of 1229 nuclear, protein‐encoding loci. We resolved nine major clades within Xanthopygina, including the new Leptodiastemus group, and successfully delineated a monophyletic concept of Gastrisus ...

The mycobiota of faeces from the critically endangered kākāpō and associated nest litter

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 171-192, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The critically endangered kākāpō is a flightless, nocturnal parrot endemic to Aotearoa New Zealand. During the 2019 breeding season multiple kākāpō on Whenua Hou, an island with one of the largest kākāpō populations, contracted the respiratory fungal disease aspergillosis.
