Article Abstract
The bulb mite, Rhizoglyphus robini (Claparède; Astigmata: Acaridae), is a cosmopolitan pest with a broad host range, including commercially grown edible fungi in China. In this study, we recorded the development and reproductive traits of the bulb mite reared on four mushroom species: Agaricus bisporus Lange, Pleurotus ostreatus Kumm, Pleurotus pulmonarius (Fr.) Quél., and Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler at six constant temperatures ranging from 15 to 31°C and 80% RH. Developmental time for the immature stages was significantly affected by fungal species, ranging from 9.45 ± 1.83 d (reared on L. edodes at 31°C) to 26.39 ± 2.10 d (reared on A. bisporus at 15°C). Edible fungi species significantly affected intrinsic rates of natural increase (rm) at 31°C (varied from 0.23 to 0.28) as did the mite's net reproductive rates (R0) (103.78, 90.43, 70.77, and 97.45, respectively). Longevity, fecundity and female lifespan were dependent on host fungi.

Caliciopsis pinea is the ascomycete plant pathogen that causes caliciopsis canker disease on North American Pinus strobus (eastern white pine). Infections result in downgrading of lumber due to canker formation and overall loss of vigor in P. strobus, which is a critical cover species throughout its native range.

Background: Mixed-species, mixed-strain plasmodia infections are known to occur in humans in malaria endemic areas. It may be surprising that to date, the extent of this complexity has not been systematically explored in high-burden countries of sub-Saharan Africa, especially in the reservoir of asymptomatic infections in all ages, which sustains transmission.
Methods: Here we take a metagenomic lens to these infections by sampling variable blood volumes from 188 afebrile residents living in high, seasonal transmission in Northern Sahelian Ghana.

Gut-mitochondria is an emerging paradigm in understanding the pathophysiology of complex neuropsychiatric disorders such as Schizophrenia (SCZ). This bidirectional communication network connects the gastrointestinal microbiota with mitochondrial function and brain health, offering novel insights into disease onset and progression. SCZ, characterized by hallucinations, delusions, cognitive impairments, and social withdrawal, has traditionally been attributed to genetic and neurochemical imbalances.
