Bacterial composition of Polygenis (Polygenis) bohlsi bohlsi (Wagner, 1901) (Siphonaptera: Rhopalopsyllidae) associated with Thrichomys fosteri (Rodentia: Echimyidae) in the Brazilian Pantanal wetland

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the bacteriome of Polygenis (Polygenis) bohlsi bohlsi fleas collected from free‐living Thrichomys fosteri in the Pantanal region of Brazil. The bacterial microbiota associated with male fleas exhibited greater phylogenetic diversity, and the overall community structure differed between the flea sexes.

Are vacant lots within urban blocks a risk factor for Aedes aegypti higher occurrence and density on neighbouring properties?

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Vacant lots may contain all necessary characteristics for Aedes aegypti's proliferation. 495 mosquito traps near vacant lots were analysed, showing a decrease in Ae. aegypti occurrence. Despite the potential for debris accumulation, vacant lots may not offer all necessary characteristics required for the mosquito life stage.

Dormancy type, seed traits, and species identity shape seed‐associated fungal community composition in tropical pioneer trees

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Dormancy type, as well as chemical and physical seed traits, explain variation in seed fungal community composition. Summary Seed germination is regulated in many plants by seed dormancy, while postdispersal survival is often determined by soilborne fungi that infect seeds.

Diversification and coexistence amid widespread and persistent gene flow in Andean trees

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Andean Prunus species diversify into and occupy distinct elevation zones, remaining morphologically distinct. Yet, ancient introgression and recent admixture cross both phylogenetic and ecological distances. This suggests these species function as a long‐lived syngameon rather than fully isolated lineages, which may help explain how tree diversity ...
