Phylogenomic approach to integrative taxonomy resolves a century‐old taxonomic puzzle and the evolutionary history of the Acromyrmex octospinosus species complex

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 469-494, July 2025.
A comprehensive, integrative study approach combining morphology, population genetics, phylogenetics and biogeography revealed that the Acromyrmex octospinosus species complex consists of two species: A. octospinosus and its social parasite A. insinuator.

Landscape heterogeneity and pesticide reduction favor predation, but also grape infestation by Lobesia botrana

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 4, June 2025.
Abstract Biological pest control is a major ecosystem service and is known to depend on landscape heterogeneity. The composition and configuration of landscapes can affect natural enemy communities, trophic interactions, and pest density within agroecosystems.

Effect of Resource Abundance on Woodland Rodents' Demography at Latitudinal Extremes in Europe

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
The study aimed to assess the role of food availability on rodent demography in populations characterised by different dynamics, that is multiannual cycles in Northern European populations and mast‐driven outbreaks in Southern European populations. ABSTRACT Climate change effects on primary productivity are especially evident along altitudinal and ...

The Biogeography of Apicomplexan Parasites in Tropical Soils

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
We investigate the belowground biogeography of an important yet poorly described group of soil parasites, the Apicomplexa. We found both biotic and abiotic drivers that contribute to shaping the diversity and distribution of dominant Apicomplexa in tropical soil systems.

Impact of Short‐Term High Temperature on Microplitis manilae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) Survival, Fecundity and Progeny Development

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study reveals the effects of short‐term high‐temperature stress on the survival, reproduction, and progeny development of M. manilae. It provides a theoretical basis for understanding the biological evolution mechanism of M. manilae in response to thermal stress and the biological control of pests by M.

DNA metabarcoding provides new insight into the diet of invasive chital deer (Axis axis) in a tropical savanna landscape

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract The introduction of non‐native species into new environments can cause significant ecological harm and is considered a major conservation threat. As populations of invasive species continue to establish and increase across the globe, novel methods can provide new insights into their biology and potentially aid in management.

Parasite spatial distribution shapes parasite aggregation on host populations, but not at high parasite density

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Spatial aggregation of environmental or trophically transmitted parasites has the potential to influence host–parasite interactions. The distribution of parasites on hosts is one result of those interactions, and the role of spatial aggregation is unclear.

Characteristic, Regulation and Targeting Strategies of Cancer Stem Cells and Their Niche in Digestive System Tumors

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
Cancer stem cells, characterized by self‐renewal, differentiation, heterogeneity, plasticity and tumorigenicity, are regulated by intrinsic factors such as signaling pathways, transcription factors, metabolism and noncoding RNAs, as well as environmental cells (including tumor cells, immune cells and stromal cells), environmental factors and distant ...
