Diversity of the Antimicrobial Peptide Genes in Collembola. [PDF]

Insects, 2023
Multidrug-resistant bacteria are a current health crisis threatening the world’s population, and scientists are looking for new drugs to combat them. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are part of the organism’s innate immune system, are a promising ...

Assessing Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes Through Drone-Based Environmental DNA Sampling. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We developed a drone‐based environmental DNA (eDNA) swabbing method to assess hexapod diversity in agricultural fields under three management types (conventional, organic, and IP‐Suisse), detecting 75 taxa across 19 families. eDNA replicates showed consistent within‐field results, though no significant differences in diversity were found between ...

Evolutionary, Functional and Mechanistic Characterisation of Microbial Terpene Synthase-Like Genes From Springtails. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
A genome analysis revealed the presence of many bacterial‐type terpene synthases in springtails. Four enzymes from Sinella curviseta were functionally characterised, resulting in the isolation of several compounds including sinellene ether, the first diterpene ether identified from a terpene synthase that represents a novel skeleton.

A Regional DNA Barcode Library for Northern Rocky Mountain Arthropods to Support Biodiversity and Molecular Ecological Research. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We developed the MPG Ranch Arthropod Library (MPG‐AL), a COI DNA barcode reference library for arthropods of the Northern Rocky Mountains, to address gaps in barcode coverage for the western United States. From 86,533 specimens collected in Montana, we generated 52,270 DNA barcodes spanning 38 orders and 1793 species, adding 5154 Barcode Index Numbers (

Integrating Megabarcoding and Metabarcoding to Unlock Diversity and Distribution Data Shortfalls in Dark Taxa. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Persistent biodiversity data shortfalls undermine our capacity to detect species, map their distributions and characterize their spatial genetic structure, limiting robust biogeographic analyses and the development of effective conservation strategies.

New species and new records of Tullbergiidae (Arthropoda, Hexapoda, Collembola, Poduromorpha) from Xizang, Southwest China, with genetic distance analysis within the family. [PDF]

Zookeys
The Tullbergiidae of Xizang, Southwest China, are studied based on specimens newly collected in 2024. Metaphorura alticola sp. nov., which was discovered in two localities at extremely high altitudes of 4000–5300 m in Shannan City, is described and ...
