Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Grassland management, soil biota and ecosystem services in sandy soils [PDF]

, 2010
Recent legislative restrictions on the use of fertilizers and irrigation, and a quest for sustainable farming systems have drawn renewed attention to the functioning of the soil and the ecosystem services it provides. Soil biota play an important role in

Laboratory Biology, Immature and Adult Morphology of Trichopria drosophilae (Perkins) (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae), Parasitoids of Drosophila Flies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in ...

Diversity of the Microbiomes in the Larval and Adult Stages of the European Cherry Fruit Fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) and Identification of Potential Biocontrol Candidate Taxa

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
First comprehensive characterization of the R. cerasi microbiome is reported. Stage‐specific variations in microbial composition are documented. Multiple bacterial entomopathogen taxa are identified as potential biocontrol candidates for R. cerasi.

Exploiting Native Biodiversity for Invasive Species Management: The Case of Exorista larvarum as a Natural Enemy of the Invasive Box Tree Moth Cydalima perspectalis

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.

A Fly in the Ointment? Non‐Target Fly Pest Benefits From Reduction in Ivermectin During Targeted Selective Treatment

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Targeted Selective Treatment (TST) can reduce the rate of resistance development in livestock gastrointestinal nematodes but can also reduce the effects of anthelmintics on non‐target organisms. Most studies of non‐target anthelmintic effects focus on beneficial species.

Harnessing nematode-responsive promoters: A promising solution for plant parasitic nematodes management

Plant Stress
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) impose severe biotic stress on plants by damaging roots, disrupting nutrient and water uptake, and compromising overall plant health.
