First record of two slug mite species of the genus Riccardoella Berlese (Acari: Ereynetidae) in Serbia [PDF]
Pesticidi i Fitomedicina, 2016 The paper presents the first data on slug mites Riccardoella (Riccardoella) limacum (Schrank) and R. (Proriccardoella) oudemansiThor (Acari: Ereynetidae) in Serbia. The two parasitic species were detected on seven species of snails and slugs (Gastropoda,

Introgressive replacement of natives by invading Arion pest slugs
Scientific Reports, 2017 Hybridization with invasive species is one of the major threats to the phenotypic and genetic persistence of native organisms worldwide. Arion vulgaris (syn. lusitanicus) is a major agricultural pest slug that successfully invaded many European countries

The proppin Bcas3 and its interactor KinkyA localize to the early phagophore and regulate autophagy [PDF]
, 2021 To resolve the signaling mechanisms that mediate the starvation-induced processes of Dictyostelium sporulation and encystation, we performed insertional mutagenesis on cells harboring an mRFP-tagged spore gene.

Dynamics of a structured slug population model in the absence of seasonal variation [PDF]
, 2006 We develop a novel, nonlinear structured population model for the slug Deroceras reticulatum, a highly significant agricultural pest of great economic impact, in both organic and non-organic settings. In the absence of seasonal variations, we numerically

Potential distribution of the invasive species of slugs Arion Lusitanicus Sensu Lato in Europe
Біологічні студії, 2015 Ecological niche modeling (BIOCLIM) of the invasive slug Arion lusitanicus sensu lato was carried out. Considerable potential for further spread of this species was established. This species was found only in Western Ukraine before our study. However the

Toxicity of Euphorbia helioscopia pellets to two phytophagous molluscs, Theba pisana Müller, 1774 (Pulmonata: Helicidae) and Arion hortensis Férussac, 1819 (Pulmonata: Arionidae) [PDF]
Pesticidi i Fitomedicina, 2018 Harmful land snails and slugs are currently one of the most important threats facing agriculture in many parts of the world. Synthetic molluscicides are the main control method against these gastropods.

Photoprotection in sequestered plastids of sea slugs and respective algal sources
Scientific Reports, 2015 Some sea slugs are capable of retaining functional sequestered chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) for variable periods of time. The mechanisms supporting the maintenance of these organelles in animal hosts are still largely unknown. Non-photochemical quenching (
