Understanding the intricate ecological interactions within the microbiome of arthropod vectors is crucial for elucidating disease transmission dynamics and developing effective control strategies. In this study, we investigated the ecological roles of Coxiella-like endosymbiont (CLE) and Anaplasma marginale across larval, nymphal, and adult stages ...

1.IntroductionUnderstanding the pesticides uses across a region is crucial for evaluating environmental policy effectiveness, guide environmental monitoring and implement targeted actions (Martin et al., 2023). However, when detailed on-the-ground data on phytosanitary practices and pollutant measurements are scarce or unavailable, the use of appro...

Earthworms play a crucial role in ecosystem functions and services, particularly in shaping soil structure and promoting water infiltration, litter decomposition, and nitrogen mineralization. Their activities modify physical and chemical soil properties, which in turn affect microbial community composition and activity. Several analyses revealed th...

Carabids are abundant and diverse arthropods in agroecosystems and are well known for their generalist diet and therefore biocontrol potential. Most studies on carabids' diet have focused on periods of peak pest infestations but their feeding habits through the cropping season are poorly known. In this study, we explored how carabids' trophic inter...

Climate change and global warming in the Sahelian region cause dramatic drought and advancing of the desert. This phenomenon could affect the plant survival and community composition, but even for surviving plants, it could affect their phenology and the insect community associated with them. In a space‐for‐time approach, we studied the case of Ann...

As major terrestrial carbon sinks, forests play an important role in mitigating climate change. The relationship between the seasonal uptake of carbon and its allocation to woody biomass remains poorly understood, leaving a significant gap in our capacity to predict carbon sequestration by forests. Here, we compare the intra-annual dynamics of carb...

Key message: The elapsed times to deplete starch concentrations and to reach a null hydraulic safety margin were related to tree seedling mortality under experimental drought. Starch concentration showed an accelerated decline across all species during the early stages of dehydration, while the concentrations of soluble sugars and total nonstructur...

Phytoplankton and bacteria form the foundation of marine food webs. While most studies on phytoplankton bloom influence on bacteria dynamics focus on diatom-dominated blooms due to their global ecological significance, it is unclear if similar patterns extend to other species that compete with diatoms like Phaeocystis spp. This study aimed to contr...

In a context of global warming and heavy anthropization of freshwater systems, cyanobacteria monitoring is becoming an essential priority. In recent years, submersible fluorescence sensors capable of measuring pigments and estimating cyanobacterial biomass in near-real time have been deployed on a large-scale. However, these tools have several limi...

Nutrient enrichment and climate warming threaten freshwater systems. Metabolic theory and the paradox of enrichment predict that both stressors independently can lead to simpler food-webs having fewer nodes, shorter food-chains and lower connectance, but cancel each other's effects when simultaneously present. Yet, these theoretical predictions rem...
