Environmental factors affecting RNAi efficacy: Temperature but not plant cultivar influences Colorado potato beetle's response to insecticidal dsRNA

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 581-592, August 2025.
Colorado potato beetle's RNA interference (RNAi) response was enhanced when insecticidal dsactin was consumed at high temperatures. The enhanced RNAi outcomes at high temperatures were not a function of dose or the expression of core RNAi genes. The potato cultivar consumed by Colorado potato beetle larvae did not affect RNAi outcomes, but larvae did ...

Observations on Rhamnus alaternus Naturally Infected by Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex ST87 in the Mediterranean Maquis of Monte Argentario (Tuscany, Italy)

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1813-1829, August 2025.
At Monte Argentario (Italy), the severity of symptoms on Rhamnus alaternus, a drought‐resistant species of the Mediterranean maquis, is attributable to the progression of Xylella fastidiosa ST87 infection only in part. ABSTRACT The diseases caused by the xylem‐inhabiting bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) are considered a consequence of the drastic ...

Amelogenin Null Mice Develop Osteoarthritis, While Its Application Mitigates Disease Phenotypes in a Rat Model

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 14, 31 July 2025.
Aged amelogenin‐null mice developed severe osteoarthritic features. In a rat model of induced osteoarthritis, a single application of a recombinant human amelogenin inhibited joint deterioration and induced partial healing, while increasing type II collagen and decreasing MMP‐13 and type X collagen, 24 weeks posttreatment.

Freshwater Foraminifera Biodiversity in New England (USA): Evaluation of Field Sites and a Botanical Garden

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
We explore trends in freshwater foraminifera richness and relative abundance across several low‐pH bog locations, including different ecological sites within each location, and from one established botanical garden habitat using a metabarcoding molecular technique. Our main findings confirm the relatively rare nature of freshwater foraminifera, and yet

Seasonal and Landscape‐Driven Variations in Forage Resources of Apis mellifera scutellata: Implications for Pollination Sustainability and Colony Health in Taita Taveta County, Kenya

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
We used DNA metabarcoding to identify nectar and pollen plant species supporting honey bee nutrition across different landscapes and seasons in Taita Taveta County, Kenya. Forage availability was influenced by landscape and season, with exotic species (67%) dominating over native ones (33%), raising concerns about colony health and how the occurrence ...

Vertical Zonal Distribution Patterns of Entomopathogenic Fungi in the Changbai Mountain

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) distribution was divided into high‐ and low‐elevation patterns. EPF species diversity in the same vegetation belt was unaffected by altitude. EPF tended to evolve toward broadleaved forest habitats. ABSTRACT Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are critical drivers of ecosystem processes such as pest regulation and material cycling.

Age Is Just a Number: No Impacts of Scat Ageing on Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Genotyping Using a Target Capture Approach

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Wildlife genetic research increasingly relies on samples containing low quantities and quality of DNA, which present unique methodological challenges such as the impact of environmental exposure time or sample ‘age’ on DNA quality and downstream genetic analyses.
