‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Laboratory Biology, Immature and Adult Morphology of Trichopria drosophilae (Perkins) (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae), Parasitoids of Drosophila Flies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Nematodes in plant quarantine: Detection of plant parasitic nematode infestations difficult because of complexity of possible causes of visible symptoms

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1959
Nearly all the major crop pests in California–including plant parasitic nematodes–have been introduced on or in host plants or as contaminants on articles of commerce.

Ecosystem recovery in restored saltmarshes detected through invertebrate communities

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Saltmarsh ecosystems support rich biodiversity and provide key ecosystem services. Invertebrate communities underpin essential processes such as nutrient cycling and decomposition. However, saltmarshes have been widely degraded by land use change.

Raptor and Drp1 Function Synthetically to Control Hypoxic Death and the Mitochondrial Network in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 13, 15 July 2026.
Hypoxia results in fragmented mitochondria. Whether this fragmentation promotes or prevents cell death is unresolved. Caenorhabditis elegans mutants defective in mitochondrial fission and fusion coupled with a hypoxia resistant Raptor mutant demonstrated that hypoxia‐induced mitochondrial fragmentation occurs without an intact fission machinery and ...

Fusarium wilt of cotton may commonly result from the interaction of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum with Belonolaimus longicaudatus

open access: yesJournal of Nematology, 2019
The interaction between Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov) and Meloidogyne incognita (root-knot nematode) resulting in Fusarium wilt (FW) of cotton is well-known.

Soybean‐Derived Exosome‐Like Nanovesicles Regulate Lipid Metabolism via Mitochondrial Biogenesis and UCP1/PGC‐1α Mediated Thermogenesis

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Soybean‐derived exosome‐like nanovesicles suppress lipid accumulation of adipocytes via UCP1/PGC‐1α mediated thermogenesis pathway and boosting mitochondrial function. ABSTRACT Obesity has become an important public health concern in modern society. Plant‐derived exosome‐like nanovesicles are emerging as candidates for obesity intervention.

Examining the multi‐disciplinary origins of biophobia towards threatening and non‐threatening wildlife in a highly urbanised city in China

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2338-2352, July 2026.
Abstract Urbanisation is reshaping how people experience wildlife, reducing our shared spaces with local biodiversity. Fewer opportunities for human–wildlife interactions weaken our emotional attachments to nature and precipitate a loss of species knowledge and familiarity.
