Characterization of the Omnivorous Lygus lineolaris Diet in a Strawberry Field by Metataxonomy

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study employs metataxonomy to reveal the extensive omnivorous diet of Lygus lineolaris in a strawberry field, identifying 475 host taxa and confirming active ingestion across plant and prey sources. We introduce a novel coefficient of omnivory, demonstrating the species' strong herbivorous bias while highlighting its dietary flexibility and ...

Tree species diversity increases the temporal stability of multitrophic forest beetle communities

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
As key members of the terrestrial food webs and vital contributors to wood decomposition, beetles play essential roles in ecosystem services but are experiencing widespread declines under climate change. While protecting and restoring forests with high tree species diversity is widely acknowledged as a nature‐based solution for climate change ...

Parasite infection shapes the pathobiome and behavior of marine zooplankton

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract When assessing the total impact of disease in a host, it is important to consider not only the disease‐carrying agent but also all symbionts, as they affect and are affected by the course of disease. This concept of a pathobiome is increasingly recognized in disease ecology, but is not well‐investigated in natural systems.
