Snail Farming in Mature Rubber Plantation : 4. Studies on some Artificial Methods for Hatching of Snail Eggs and Protection of Young Snails during the Dry Season

open access: yesTropicultura, 2001
Three species of edible land snails of the moist forest belt of Nigeria, Archachatina marginata (Swainson), Archachatina papyracae (Pfeiffer) and two phenotypes of Limicolaria species, sometimes named Limicolaria flammae (Muller) and Limicolaria aurora (Jay), were used in the study of three methods of artificial hatching of snail eggs and their young ...

Environmental and socio‐economic factors behind data provision in 17 citizen science projects

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2251-2265, July 2026.
Abstract Citizen science approaches in ecology have recently become increasingly popular. Although many advantages, such as the cost‐effective collection of vast amounts of data, outweigh the disadvantages, most projects face difficulties, such as non‐random sampling, pseudo‐absences or various biases, such as detection/reporting biases or participant ...

Rhizobacteria regulate colonising Sitobion avenae aphid populations through induced host resistance and alter plant volatiles promoting early parasitoid recruitment on barley (Hordeum vulgare)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 7050-7061, July 2026.
Rhizobacterial inoculation of barley reduced Sitobion avenae populations by inducing plant resistance and modifying volatiles that attracted parasitoid wasps earlier, enhancing both bottom‐up and top‐down pest control. Abstract BACKGROUND Soil rhizobacteria can enhance crop resistance to insect herbivores and influence higher trophic interactions ...

Fasciola Metacercaria Contamination in Wetland Pastures and Its Association With Forage Characteristics Across Agro‐Ecological Zones: Case of Gamo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
In Ethiopia's Gamo Zone, we found that highly palatable, protein‐rich forage species in wetlands carry the highest burden of Fasciola metacercariae. This creates a direct conflict between livestock nutrition and health, demanding integrated management strategies to mitigate disease risk.

Surface complexity and gastropod exclusion drive colonization of an intertidal eco‐engineered structure

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Habitat complexity and grazing by invertebrate molluscs shaped community structure and ecosystem functioning on eco‐engineered substrates through distinct mechanisms. Increasing structural complexity increased invertebrate species richness with limited effects on macroalgae and carbon flux, while grazer exclusion had strong effects on macroalgal ...

Carbon footprint Assessment of Open Snail-Farm Systems in Central and Northern Greece

open access: yesWSEAS TRANSACTIONS ON ENVIRONMENT AND DEVELOPMENT
This study examines the environmental sustainability of open-field snail farming systems in Greece, focusing on their carbon footprint (CF) as a representative environmental impact metric. Eleven snail farms across Central and Northern Greece were analyzed using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, assessing inputs, outputs, and processes from ...
