The role of tropical forest fragment vegetation in maintaining arthropod diversity and spillover to adjacent sugarcane fields O papel da vegetação de fragmentos de floresta tropical na manutenção da diversidade de artrópodes e na sua disseminação para campos de cana‐de‐açúcar adjacentes

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 82-93, February 2026.
Tree diversity increases arthropod richness and the abundance of beneficial arthropod groups within Atlantic Forest fragments. Higher insect richness in forest fragments is associated with greater richness in adjacent sugarcane fields, and both habitats share insect families, suggesting spillover.

Vermicompost Alters Soil Microbial Communities and Decomposition but Increases Nitrate Leaching in Tropical Sugarcane

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
A six‐week field trial in Australian sugarcane soil used metabarcoding, trait‐based analysis and structural equation modelling to test how vermicompost affects soil biodiversity, decomposition and nitrate leaching under tropical conditions. Vermicompost shifted bacterial community composition and accelerated decomposition, yet increased nitrate ...
