Niche Breadth and Olfactory Context Shape Informed Passive Dispersal. [PDF]
Ecol LettExperimental evolution reveals that niche breadth modulates informed passive dispersal in phytophagous mites through divergent strategies. While generalists optimise take‐off based on target cue familiarity and signal‐to‐noise ratios, specialists primarily track current host quality to trigger departure.

Wolbachia–induced parthenogenesis in a genus of phytophagous mites [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2001 The vertically transmitted endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia modifies host reproduction in several ways in order to enhance its own spread. One such modification results in the induction of parthenogenesis, where males, which are unable to transmit Wolbachia, are not produced.
