Sticking to the Subject: Multifunctionality in Microbial Adhesins
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Bacterial and fungal adhesins mediate microbial aggregation, biofilm formation, and adhesion to host. We divide these proteins into two major classes: professional adhesins and moonlighting adhesins that have a non-adhesive activity that is ...

Proteo‐transcriptomic insights into the venom composition of the ectoparasitoid Eupelmus urozonus
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Integrated venom‐gland transcriptomics and venom proteomics of Eupelmus urozonus identified 316 venom proteins, including 75 secreted candidates, revealing diverse hydrolases, proteases/inhibitors and many uncharacterized effectors. Abstract BACKGROUND Ectoparasitoid venoms are ‘cocktails’ of bioactive molecules injected during oviposition to paralyze ...

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.
