Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 3055-3064, November 2025.This study recorded relatively low incidences of crop raiding by fruit bats and highlights the economic benefits of biocontrol by insectivorous bats and birds, which outweighed the yield losses by fruit bats, birds and monkeys. Vertebrate exclusion to prevent crop damage limits access and biocontrol benefits provided by bats and birds.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2025.This study demonstrates that the production of surfactin by B. subtilis R31 needs to be balanced. Excessive surfactin will weaken the colonisation ability and disease control effect of the strain. By targeting the regulation of the surfactin signalling pathway, synthetic microbial communities can be designed for sustainable disease control.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.ABSTRACT Miniature inverted‐repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are short, non‐autonomous class II transposable elements prevalent in eukaryotic genomes, contributing to various genomic and genic functions in plants. However, research on MITEs mainly targets a few species, limiting a comprehensive understanding and systematic comparison of MITEs in ...
