Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Individualised niches: an integrative conceptual framework across behaviour, ecology, and evolution
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Individuals differ. While seemingly trivial, this insight has nevertheless led to paradigm shifts, as three key fields of organismal biology have seen marked changes in key concepts over the past few decades. In animal behaviour, it has become increasingly recognised that behavioural differences among individuals can be stable over time and ...

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Novel Techniques for the Characterisation of Exopolysaccharides Secreted by Lactic Acid Bacteria
This project investigated the structures and physical characteristics of exopolysaccharides (EPSs) secreted by lactic acid bacteria. The structure of a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Lactobacillus acidophilus 5e2 has been characterised ...

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...
