Testing optimal defense theory: Root resistance selection in chicory (Cichorium intybus) reduces foliar defense and alters aphid performance and feeding behavior

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 7951-7960, August 2026.
Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...

Interpretación morfológica de la anatomía genital de Agromyzidae (Diptera)

, 2014
We propose a morphological interpretation of Agromyzidae male terminalia. We also suggest nomenclature for bodies forms in its genitalia, in order to homogenize the criteria and define a fixed morphological scheme for genitalia, applicable to Agromyzidae

Diversity of flies visiting and pollinating flowers of the Southern African genus Riocreuxia (Apocynaceae: Ceropegieae, Anisotominae)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The subtribe Stapeliinae (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) contains ca. 720 species and, with fly pollination being ubiquitous in the group, appears to have diversified without shifts between major groups of pollinators. In contrast, the sister subtribe Anisotominae, which only has ca.

A Joint Pest Management Model for the Bean Fly Complex, Ophiomyia spencerella and Ophiomyia phaseoli (Diptera: Agromyzidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 882-889, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The common bean is an important crop in Eastern Africa for smallholder farmers, yet yields are often reduced due to pests, particularly Ophiomyia spencerella and Ophiomyia phaseoli. These species are partially sympatric and commonly known as the bean fly. Here, based on the similarity of their life history and developmental biology, field data

Insectary Plant Species Preferences of Predators and Parasitoid Families in a Mediterranean Horticultural Agroecosystem

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 803-815, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of insectary plants to provide alternative food and shelter resources for enhancing natural enemy activity has been established as a common practice in IPM. Candidate flowering plant species have been screened and evaluated for their contribution to enhance life parameters of beneficial insects.

Widespread Lateral Transmission in Fergusonina Galling Flies (Diptera: Fergusoninidae) and Their Obligate Nematode Mutualists Does Not Preclude an Overall Pattern of Cospeciation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
The biology of gall‐forming fergusoninid flies and their obligate nematode mutualists suggests strict vertical transmission of nematodes between fly generations. Using mitochondrial sequence data to associate fly and nematode haplotypes, we found widespread intraspecific horizontal transfer in multiple species.
