Wild bee diversity and land use: A case study in a mountain agroecosystem of the Serranía de Ronda, southern Spain

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Orchards supported the highest wild bee diversity and functional diversity, highlighting their role in maintaining bee communities in Mediterranean agroecosystems. Landscape heterogeneity positively influenced functional evenness and dispersion of wild bee communities, underscoring the importance of diverse landscapes for bee conservation. The presence

Diet breadth shapes gut microbiota in the invasive hornet Vespa velutina

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Dietary and microbial profiles of V. velutina larvae are dominated by Apidae and Firmicutes, respectively. DNA metabarcoding of larval meconium and gut samples reveals a significant positive correlation between prey richness and bacterial diversity in the invasive hornet V. velutina. Multiple significant correlations exist between dietary and microbial

Evaluating Sawdust as a Bulking Agent to Enhance Black Soldier Fly Larvae (Hermetia illucens) Performance and Survival in Potato Peels

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rearing of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) offers a sustainable approach for producing high‐protein larvae for animal feed, contributing to waste reduction and nutrient recovery. While BSFL‐rearing is well studied, the role of non‐nutritive bulking agents such as sawdust remains unclear. Sawdust was added on top of the base substrate at 0%

Growth‐regulating proteins differ between British seawater fish species, shedding light on their ecological adaptations

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

Jellyfish: Special Tools for Biological Research on Earth and in Space [PDF]

open access: yes
The most intriguing nature of the jellyfish polyps is their ability to metamorphose, giving rise to tiny immature medusae called ephyrae which have a different form or shape from the polyps. The Aurelia Metamorphosis Test System was used to determine the

Histological characterisation of gonadal sex differentiation in Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) for aquaculture advancement

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) is a high‐value tropical marine species receiving growing attention for aquaculture development in Singapore and Southeast Asia. At present, seed production relies primarily on uncontrolled mass spawning in sea cages, a practice that lacks consistency, biosecurity and control of genetic ...
