Compromised DNA replication in gut cells underlies sensitivity to genotoxic stress in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
DNA damage in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris elicits distinct cellular outcomes depending on replication status. While non‐replicating cells tolerate genotoxic stress, constitutively replicating cells undergo irreversible replication failure upon DNA damage, leading to loss of tissue homeostasis, fat depletion, sterility, and organismal death ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Niche partitioning among sexual and unisexual Ambystoma salamanders

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Organisms that have ecologically similar sexual and asexual forms present an evolutionary puzzle, as theory predicts that eventually one form should eliminate the other.

Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.

Increased Virulence of an Epidemic Strain of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Is Associated With Interference of the Innate Response in Pigs

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) causes sporadic outbreaks of vesicular disease in the southwestern United States. The intrinsic characteristics of epidemic strains associated with these outbreaks are poorly understood.

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Improving Biological Control Outcomes: A New Zealand Perspective

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 3, June 2026.
This short communication outlines the imperative for advances in classical biological control, often based on molecular technologies, to accentuate the efficacy of impact while being cognisant of the need for biological control safety.

Comparative analysis of fecundity in close amphimictic Aporrectodea сaliginosa and apomictic A. trapezoides earthworms, and the problem of reproductive advantages of parthenogenetic animals.

open access: yesZoodiversity, 2020
The comparative analysis of fecundity and fertility was studied experimentally for the amphimictic Aporrectodea caliginosa diploid earthworms and the close parthenogenetic A. trapezoides triploid earthworms during two seasons. The individual fecundity of

Reduced fecundity associated with Wolbachia infection in a Neotropical drosophilid Redução da fecundidade associada à infecção por Wolbachia em um drosofilídeo Neotropical

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 475-488, June 2026.
Using multiple infected and uninfected Drosophila sturtevanti lines, we investigated (i) the impact of Wolbachia on fecundity and (ii) its effects relative to antibiotic treatment. Based on over 1680 dissected ovaries, fecundity was similar between infected and uninfected flies.
