The findings extend the understanding of boric acid’s mode of action in termites, emphasizing its ability to significantly modulate the bacterial symbiont community, which can have dire effects on termite biology.
Findings suggest that sublethal CAP exposure is closely associated with gut symbiont dysbiosis in S. insularis, accompanied by impaired digestive function and delayed larval growth and development.

Gut bacteria are critically important to bark beetles, especially under environmental fluctuations.
Tomicus brevipilosus
undergoes a niche shift from shoot-boring (which weakens
Pinus yunnanensis
) to trunk-boring for reproduction. The relationship between this transition and the gut microbiota remains to be...

Bacterial symbionts play crucial roles in mosquito development and other features. Increasing evidence suggests that exposure to insecticides can modulate mosquito-associated microbiota, with potential implications for vector control strategies. The goal of this study was to compare the bacterial communities of Culex q...

Hexaflumuron is a benzoylurea insecticide with potential application against arthropod ectoparasites in aquaculture, but its toxicity to non-target fish remains insufficiently characterized. This study evaluated acute toxicity and intestinal responses to sublethal concentrations of hexaflumuron in juvenile grass carp (...

ABSTRACT Scorpions are ancient arachnids of medical and ecological importance; they prey on insects and other arthropods while serving as prey to birds and reptiles. In this study, we reported for the first time on the characterization of the gut intestinal microbiome of Hottentotta tamulus native to northeastern Pakis...
