Sleep is important for cellular/humoral and behavioural immunity. In Drosophila mite systems, sleep deprivation reduced behavioural resistance against ectoparasitic infection. Sleep‐deprived flies exhibited lower endurance (negative geotaxis assay) and endurance is a reliable indicator of behavioural resistance against ectoparasites.

RNAseq and differential expression analysis identified 15 salivary gland genes encoding secreted proteins with putative anti‐bacterial, anti‐fungal, cytolytic, digestive and immunosuppressive function. The three most highly transcribed genes were selected to study their functional importance by reverse genetics, using a non‐invasive approach of dsRNA ...

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*
Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

Plant–arthropod associations in custard apples, genus Annona: A global perspective
Annona species, commonly known as custard apples, engage with a wide range of arthropods, including both herbivores and pollinators, which shape their ecology. These plants produce secondary metabolites that may serve as natural defenses against pests.
