Behavior of Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) recki confronted to a combination of plants and food: pollen, Tetranychus urticae and Aculops lycopersici for companion plant use.

Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) recki feeds on pest mites on tomato plants and its introduction into crops via companion plants, Mentha suaveolens and Phlomis fruticosa, has been recently investigated. This study aims at assessing the predator arrestment behavior, through lab choice tests to determine the effects of (i) prey (Aculops lycopersici and Tetranychus urticae) vs Typha angustifolia pollen deposited on companion plant or Solanum nigrum, (ii) T. urticae vs A.

Article Synopsis
- In 2022, researchers observed gray bats with notable fur loss (alopecia), indicating potential health issues related to reproductive stages and other stress factors.
- In 2023, an experiment was conducted to assess alopecia's prevalence, severity, and associated ectoparasites in gray bats, with findings revealing no mites causing fur loss and different prevalence rates between genders.
- The study showed that lactating female bats tend to experience more severe alopecia compared to males, and no significant body condition difference was found between bats with and without fur loss, suggesting the need for further research on stress and nutritional support for these bats.
Epicutaneous house dust mite (HDM)-induced skin lesions feature early activation of T helper 2 inflammatory and pruritogenic pathways in HDM-nonsensitised dogs.

Department of Small Animal Medicine and Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, USA.
Background: Epicutaneously house dust mite-sensitised (HDM-S) healthy dogs are commonly used as canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) models; however, the exact mechanisms of HDM-induced AD immune activation in HDM-S and HDM-nonsensitised (NS) dogs remain unclear.
Objectives: To characterise the inflammatory and pruritogenic transcriptome of acute epicutaneous HDM-induced skin lesions at 6 h and 24 h in HDM-NS and HDM-S dogs; untreated skin at 0 h from each dog served as control.
Animals: Six HDM-S and six HDM-NS laboratory beagles.
Oral Administration of Expressing Mite and Cockroach Major Allergens Alleviates Progression of Atopic March in a Mouse Model.

Department of Biology, National Changhua University of Education, Changhua, Taiwan.
Purpose: Atopic march is defined as the development of atopic dermatitis in early childhood. We recently developed an atopic march mouse model through skin sensitization with aeroallergens from house dust mites and cockroaches. Using this model, this study aimed to evaluate the oral immunotherapy efficacy of harboring specific antigens on the progression of atopic march.
