“Jack‐of‐all‐trades” is parthenogenetic
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Our results suggest that parthenogenetic oribatid mite species are more generalistic than sexual species supporting the general purpose genotype hypothesis. Our findings indicate that parthenogenetic oribatid mite species possess a widely adapted general‐purpose genotype and therefore might be viewed as “Jack‐of‐all‐trades”.

Drivers of Collembola assemblages along an altitudinal gradient in northeast China
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022 The results suggest that local habitat‐related factors including precipitation and temperature are the main drivers of changes in Collembola communities with altitude. Specifically, soil and litter carbon‐to‐nitrogen ratio correlated positively with Collembola communities at high altitudes, whereas soil pH correlated positively at low altitudes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the house dust mite Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Trouessart): a novel gene arrangement among arthropods [PDF]
, 2009 Background: The apparent scarcity of available sequence data has greatly impeded evolutionary studies in Acari (mites and ticks). This subclass encompasses over 48,000 species and forms the largest group within the Arachnida.

The biology and evolution of spider venoms
Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 163-178, February 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT Spiders are diverse, predatory arthropods that have inhabited Earth for around 400 million years. They are well known for their complex venom systems that are used to overpower their prey. Spider venoms contain many proteins and peptides with highly specific and potent activities suitable for biomedical or agrochemical applications, but the ...

Species diversity of soil mites (Acari: Mesostigmata) under different agricultural land use types
Persian Journal of Acarology, 2020 Mites are among the most important members of soil arthropod communities, because they are the most diverse in terms of ecological niche and behavior. Due to the sensitivity of soil mites to soil disturbance, their diversity and numbers can be used as ...

DNA Barcoding and Phylogeny of Acari Species Based on ITS and COI Markers
Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Acari harbor numerous minute species of agricultural economic importance, mainly Tetranychidae and Phytoseiidae. Great efforts have been established by means of recovering morphological, molecular, and phylogenetic traits for species identification. Traditional identification still relies on external diagnostic characters, which are limited and usually
