Mannosylxylarinols A and B, Two New 3,4‐Seco‐ergostane‐type Steroidal Saponins From the Fungus Xylaria necrophora SZSS1‐2‐2

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
Two new 3,4‐seco‐ergostane saponins (1–2) and four known compounds were isolated from Xylaria necrophora. Structures were elucidated via spectroscopy, ECD, and computational NMR. Compound 5 selectively inhibited BV2 microglial cells (IC50 = 17.10 µM), while all compounds showed no antimicrobial activity against tested microorganisms. ABSTRACT Two new 3,

Gall Apparency Drives Parasitoid Richness in a Highly Specialised Gall‐Parasitoid Food Web From a Tropical Rainforest

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We present the largest tropical tri‐trophic plant–gall–parasitoid network documented to date, assembled from lowland rainforest in Papua New Guinea. The network reveals strikingly high specialisation, in addition to gall traits such as apparency shaping parasitoid richness.

We Are Dying to Eat You: Cannibalism and Disease Transmission Under Global Climate Change

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda), a devastating agricultural pest that can be infected by a lethal virus, readily cannibalize conspecifics. The armyworm in the photo has just consumed a smaller conspecific—note the head capsule of the victim in its mandibles. Cannibalistic consumption can impact disease transmission.
