Climate Change Helps Polar Invasives Establish and Flourish: Evidence from Long-Term Monitoring of the Blowfly Calliphora vicina

Ella Z. Z. Daly et al.

Summary: Sub-Antarctic islands, like the Kerguelen Archipelago, have a unique collection of species but are susceptible to invasion due to their isolation and low species diversity. Warming temperatures due to climate change are benefiting non-native species, such as the blowfly Calliphora vicina, which has been able to establish and spread throughout Kerguelen. This study highlights the importance of understanding the specific effects of climate change on non-native species in order to predict their population trajectory and manage their impacts.

Impact of Human Activities on Disease-Spreading Mosquitoes in Urban Areas

Penelope Duval et al.

Summary: Urbanization is a global trend with significant impact on health, particularly in terms of the emergence and spread of mosquito-borne infectious diseases (MBIDs). Urbanization processes directly affect mosquito species by changing their habitats and providing favorable conditions for their development. The review aims to summarize the impact of urbanization on mosquito spreading and the associated risk of MBIDs. Furthermore, the review explores the role of mosquito-microbiota interactions in mosquito biology and how human-driven transformations affect microbial communities and mosquito behavior in urban areas.

Assessing vector competence of mosquitoes from northeastern France to West Nile virus and Usutu virus

Jean-Philippe Martinet et al.

Summary: This study investigates the vector competence of five mosquito species collected in northeastern France to West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV). The results show that Culex pipiens mosquitoes in France are capable of transmitting both WNV and USUV, and surprisingly, Aedes albopictus also transmits these two viruses.

Biological invasion costs reveal insufficient proactive management worldwide

Ross N. Cuthbert et al.

Summary: The global increase in biological invasions is putting pressure on ecological and economic systems. However, the lack of standardized measurements across spatial, taxonomic, and temporal scales makes it difficult to assess the effectiveness of current management expenditures. Geographic distribution of management costs heavily favors North America and Oceania, with most expenditures directed towards invasive alien invertebrates in terrestrial environments.

Dispersal ability and its consequences for population genetic differentiation and diversification

Daniel Suarez et al.

Summary: Dispersal ability plays a crucial role in shaping the genetic structure, population differentiation, and lineage diversification within species. This study on beetles and spiders in the Canary Islands reveals a positive relationship between population genetic structure and diversification. Non-dispersive lineages exhibit stronger population genetic structure, higher endemic species richness at the genus level, and greater proxies for diversification rate. These findings suggest that dispersal limitation influences species and lineage diversity across evolutionary timescales, with higher extinction rates in less dispersive lineages.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of invasive species on native communities and recipient ecosystems using functional diversity indices, showing that functional diversity of the recipient community may strongly vary at the onset of the invasion process and stabilize at intermediate and high levels of invasion. However, there is still a lack of research on functional changes during the lag phase of an invasion.

A clue to invasion success: genetic diversity quickly rebounds after introduction bottlenecks

Peter Kanuch et al.

Summary: The study on the bush-cricket Metrioptera roeselii found that establishment success in introductions is correlated with propagule size and introduction time. Larger propagule introductions had higher success rates, but genetic diversity was only partly correlated with propagule size. Over time, introduced populations became more similar to their founder populations, with differentiation in small propagule introductions disappearing.

Summary: This paper reviews the processes that contribute to the success of invasive species, highlighting the role of epigenetic and non-genetic mechanisms in creating trait variation within and among invasive populations. These mechanisms, such as exposure to environmental stress, hybridization, and whole-genome duplication, can lead to gene expression re-programming and epigenetic changes that contribute to phenotypic variation or novelty.

The microbiome and mosquito vectorial capacity: rich potential for discovery and translation

Summary: Microbiome research has shown significant impact on human and animal health, particularly in relation to mosquitoes and pathogen transmission. The gut-associated microbes of mosquitoes can influence various factors such as vector density, biting rate, survival, and vector competence, ultimately modulating vectorial capacity and providing new avenues for vector control strategies. Despite the potential, there are still gaps in understanding mosquito-microbe interactions that need further research to efficiently exploit their benefits.
