Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 7123-7136, July 2026.Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not

Improved Detection and Sequencing of Rickettsia spp. DNA in South African Wildlife
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Nested gltA PCR detected Rickettsia spp. DNA in 44% of South African wildlife samples previously negative by RLB, revealing spotted fever, typhus and transitional group lineages, novel host records, co‐infection and multi‐organ dissemination in impala, highlighting complex wildlife involvement and zoonotic risk within a One Health framework.

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.The present study examined the succession and carbon source utilization of fungi associated with moss profiles and to identify the metabolic traits that were linked to the successional status. We showed that the successional status of microfungi in decomposing tissues of Hylocomium splendens was affected not by the taxonomic group but by the potential ...

Offspring Dependency Is Not Reflected in the Social Immunity of Three Burying Beetle Species
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 625-638, July 2026.Nicrophorus pustulatus, Nicrophorus vespilloides, and Nicrophorus orbicollis are three burying beetle species that differ both in their ecology and in the dependency of their offspring on parental care. This gradient of offspring dependency might be reflected in the parents' social immunity capabilities and/or investment.
