Can Airborne eDNA Be Used to Assess the Impacts of Invasive Species on Biodiversity?
We sequenced airborne eDNA to target plant and arthropod communities in woodlands with an invasive forest pest present and woodlands with no known infestations. We did not find differences in plant communities; however, we found site differences in the arthropod communities between the infested and non‐infested sites.

Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.

Carabid and staphylinid communities are shaped by adjacent habitat type, prey availability and landscape context, influencing natural pest control across agricultural landscapes. Abstract BACKGROUND The functioning of agroecosystems depends on key ecosystem processes that deliver ecosystem services, yet agricultural management has increasingly shifted ...

ABSTRACT Salmonella remains one of the most important foodborne pathogens associated with poultry products, despite substantial progress in processing hygiene and antimicrobial interventions. This review critically examines the sources, transmission routes, and control strategies for Salmonella in vertically integrated broiler production systems ...

Abstract The biodiversity crisis demands new approaches to describing and characterising species that can scale beyond the capacity of professional taxonomists alone. Hundreds of millions of specimen images are now openly available, yet almost none carry structured information about the morphology they depict. We present the Descriptron‐GBIF Annotator,

Population dynamics of tree-killing bark beetles [PDF]
During outbreak periods, the European spruce bark beetle and the North American mountain pine beetle are able to kill millions of coniferous trees. Throughout the 20th century, six outbreaks have occurred in Sweden and four in British Columbia, with ...

ABSTRACT Introduced to Hawai‘i in 2016, Lema equestris has become a garden pest commonly reported on Solanum americanum, which is grown as a native and cultural plant in Hawai‘i and supports native vertebrates elsewhere across Oceania. Originally identified as L. solani, the species was later found to have been misidentified.

Assessing the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid, Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
We investigated the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae), an emerging pest species in Europe, by combining molecular and ecological approaches. The winter host plant was confirmed as apricot by both methods.
