Pest Management Science, Volume 78, Issue 7, Page 2729-2745, July 2022., 2022 The risks of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus nuisance and vector‐borne diseases are rising and their ranges are expanding. The studies identified by this extensive review come together to suggest little potential risk of adverse impact of suppressing or eliminating invasive Aedes spp. on their predators and food webs.

Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 3, Page 1057-1117, June 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT Soil organisms drive major ecosystem functions by mineralising carbon and releasing nutrients during decomposition processes, which supports plant growth, aboveground biodiversity and, ultimately, human nutrition. Soil ecologists often operate with functional groups to infer the effects of individual taxa on ecosystem functions and services ...

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 The world population is projected to be 9.1 billion by the year 2050, and about 70% extra food will be required. One of the main challenges regarding food security is postharvest loss due to insect pests. The overall postharvest grain losses for sub‐Saharan Africa could be as high as US$4 billion/year.

Feeding habits and novel prey of larval fishes in the northern San Francisco Estuary
Environmental DNA, Volume 3, Issue 6, Page 1059-1080, November 2021., 2021 We used dietary DNA metabarcoding analysis of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I gene to study the diets of larval fishes in the San Francisco Estuary and found a high level of overlap between the two species primarily dominated by calanoid and cyclopoid copepods.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 19, Page 13036-13051, October 2021., 2021 The dust‐bathing behavior of the Hartmann’s mountain zebra creates unique rolling‐pits that persist in the landscape. In contrast to the surrounding grassland, the rolling‐pits have finer soil with higher nutrient content, collect run‐off, show a higher infiltration and keep soil moisture longer.

Arthropod facilitation mediated by abandoned dead domatia
Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021 Abstract In ant–plant mutualistic interactions, plants provide shelter (domatia) and/or food to ants and in exchange, and ants provide protection against herbivores. After plant tissue senescence, ants are expected to abandon dead domatia, leaving these empty spaces available for other arthropods.
