ABSTRACT Temporary rivers and streams are characterized by flow cessation and support high biodiversity of both aquatic and terrestrial species. In this study, we analyzed biological and ecological traits of benthic invertebrates to assess the ecological resilience and resistance of an intermittent river in Central Italy.

Long‐term population dynamics of western tent caterpillars: History, trends and causes of cycles
The length and in‐depth nature of this population study make it unique. It represents perhaps the most extensive monitoring of viral infection in a wild insect population. We have used laboratory and field experiments to test many hypotheses about mechanisms that potentially impact the dynamics of this cyclic species.

Microbiome‐Mediated Resistance of Wild Tomato to the Invasive Insect Prodiplosis longifila
Soil microbiome‐mediated resistance to Prodiplosis longifila in wild tomato. Wild tomato Solanum pimpinellifolium exhibited reduced leaf damage from P. longifila when gronw in live soil compared to sterilized soil. Sterilization disrupted root‐associated microbiome, particularly reduced the abundance of Actinoplanes, which is linked to biosynthetic ...
