Managing pests by increasing predators through late termination of cover crops

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8477-8487, September 2026.
Adding cover crops to crop rotations can improve the sustainability and ecosystem functioning of agroecosystems. By delaying cover‐crop termination, growers can effectively increase natural enemy populations and reduce the need for chemical controls. Abstract BACKGROUND Adding cover crops to crop rotations can improve the sustainability and ecosystem ...

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1779-1792, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Molecular Genetics of Hepatozoon canis With a Note on Effect of Parasite on the Complete Blood Count Profile of Canine Hosts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
A total of 654 blood samples were collected from healthy dogs in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces in Pakistan and screened for the presence of Hepatozoon canis. Genetic diversity of the detected H. canis DNA, infection‐associated risk factors, and changes in the complete blood count of the host due to parasitic activity were also evaluated.

Prediction of Overall Survival in Patients With Oesophageal Cancer Using AI‐Based 3D CT Body Composition Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Oesophageal cancer remains the sixth most lethal malignancy, with 5‐year survival rates around 22%. CT‐derived 2D body composition analysis has emerged as a promising prognostic tool, but conventional, often manually created single‐slice L3 measurements are unsuited for future clinical implementation. We evaluated fully automated AI‐

Distribution and frequency of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats in the northeastern United States

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 7700-7710, August 2026.
This study assesses the distribution and frequency of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats in northeastern USA. House mice showed higher frequency of Vkorc1 mutations than Norway rats. The A32V and Y139F mutations are first reported in mice, and the L128V is newly reported in Norway rats.
