Drivers of Host–Pathogen Community Assemblages in European Forests and Urban Green Spaces
ABSTRACT Despite advances in understanding infectious diseases, the persistence and re‐emergence of wildlife pathogens continue to raise public and veterinary health concerns. This study investigates the relationship between biodiversity and rodent‐borne diseases in Europe, focusing on habitat alterations and their impact on rodent diversity.

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding
Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.

BIMr2: Inference of migration rates and their drivers from multilocus genotypes
Abstract Understanding how environmental factors drive recent migration is crucial for predicting species' responses to habitat change and for informing conservation strategies. There is one method available (BIMr) aimed at identifying the environmental factors associated with migration patterns using genetic data.

Abstract Network analysis is a powerful framework for investigating complex systems across disciplines, including ecology. However, ecological network data are often incomplete or error‐prone due to sampling limitations, detection failures and taxonomic uncertainty—leading to missing (false negative) and spurious (false positive) links that obscure ...

Link prediction in ecological meta‐networks under extreme taxonomic bias
Abstract Ecological networks offer powerful insights into community function but, without first characterizing these networks accurately, our ability to detect and interpret changes under environmental stress is limited. We develop an extension of the Covariate‐Informed Link Prediction (COIL) framework to reduce bias in ecological link prediction when ...
