Some mesostigmatic mites (Acari: Parasitiformes) of Khuzestan Province, southwestern Iran

open access: yesPersian Journal of Acarology, 2018
Animal droppings constitute an ephemeral habitat where specialized invertebrate communities including significant abundance of mites live together. In order to study the Mesostigmata mites associated with manure, samples were taken from different manure

Soil Multitrophic Interactions in a Changing World

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2025.
Multitrophic interactions in soil food web. (a) Interactions between organisms from intra‐ and inter‐trophic levels across ecosystem boundaries link ecosystem compartments, provide nutrient and energy flow across trophic boundaries, maintain stability to ecosystem functions and supply ecosystem services.

Catalogue of the mite family Podocinidae Berlese (Acari: Mesostigmata)

open access: yesZootaxa, 2020
The mite family Podocinidae consists of 38 species in three genera, namely Africoseius Krantz (two species), Podocinella Evans & Hyatt (five species) and Podocinum Berlese (31 species). They are free living, but their biology is poorly known. The objective of this work was to summarise the history of the classification of the podocinids, to provide

Effects of density experience on mate guarding behavior by adult male Kanzawa spider mites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In the Kanzawa spider mite, Tetranychus kanzawai (Acari: Tetranychidae), adult males guard pre-reproductive quiescent females. I experimentally examined the effects of density experience during development and/or after adult emergence on precopulatory ...

Deformed wing virus genotypes A and B do not elicit immunologically different responses in naïve honey bee hosts

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 33-51, February 2025.
We measured immune gene expression in DWV‐infected pupae in the absence of Varroa and found no evidence that DWV genotypes elicit a different immune response in honey bees. The antiviral siRNA response does not inhibit DWV from accumulating to high loads, with DWV siRNA response comparatively weaker than another honey bee virus, black queen cell virus (

Optimizing eDNA Metabarcoding Techniques for Assessing Arthropod Communities in Tree‐Related Microhabitats

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–February 2025.
This study highlights the significance of using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to study forest arthropods associated with tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs) and deadwood. We find that our tree surface sampling effectively captured ecologically significant arthropods associated with TreMs, exhibiting overlap with other deadwood sediment samples ...

Reduced predation and energy flux in soil food webs by introduced tree species: Bottom‐up control of multitrophic biodiversity across size compartments

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 64-76, January 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The introduction of non‐native tree species has become a global concern and may disrupt native communities and related ecosystem functions. Soil food webs regulate organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling in forests with their feeding activities, but evaluating
