Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1896-1909, June 2026.Abstract Molecular identification of insect food webs can accurately reveal complex trophic interactions and serve as a foundation for understanding ecosystem functioning and advancing biodiversity conservation. This process typically involves DNA library construction, high‐throughput sequencing and subsequent steps, including data assembly, annotation,

Molecular mechanisms of sex determination in Lepidoptera: current status and perspectives
Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 599-617, April 2026.The genetic basis of sex determination in Lepidoptera was discovered in 2014 in the silkworm Bombyx mori. In this model species, the W chromosome‐derived small piRNA called Fem piRNA downregulates the expression of a Z‐linked gene, Masculinizer (Masc), which leads to the default female‐specific splicing of the doublesex gene (dsxF) and thus to female ...

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.In this study, a new phylogenetic study reclassifies the moth subfamilies Dyopsinae and Thiacidinae. For the first time, Thiacidas postica—the type species of Thiacidinae—was sequenced and shown to belong within Dyopsinae, in the Ceroctena clade. As a result, Thiacidinae is reinstated as the tribe Thiacidini (stat. nov.) within Dyopsinae.
