Effects of essential amino acids on phagostimulation and reproduction in adults of the Mediterranean fruit fly Efectos de amino ácidos esenciales en la fago‐estimulación y reproducción en adultos de la mosca de las frutas del Mediterráneo

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
The phagostimulation and reproductive effects of individual essential amino acids, without other nutrient except fructose, were investigated. Methionine, Arginine and Leucine display significantly higher phagostimulation strength than fructose. Arginine and Methionine showed a significant improvement in reproductive activity compared to other tested ...

Behavioural manipulation of the cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala L): Prospects for push–pull strategies in oilseed rape

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10551-10560, November 2026.
Behavioural manipulation of Psylliodes chrysocephala provides promising opportunities for sustainable pest management in oilseed rape systems. This review synthesises evidence on glucosinolates and their volatile isothiocyanate derivatives as phagostimulants and attractants, alongside the repellent or antifeedant effects of non‐host plants, plant ...

Ultramorphology, diversity and quantitative analysis of antennal sensilla in Diacamma ants (Formicidae: Hymenoptera: Ponerinae)

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology
Background Antennal sensilla are vital sensory organs that facilitate communication, navigation, and environmental adaptation in ants. Variations in sensillar organization are often associated with ecological and behavioral differences among species. The

Tritrophic Interactions and Parasitoid Community Structure of Gall‐Inducing Herbivores in Arid Desert Ecosystems of Northern Xinjiang, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study systematically elucidates the complex tritrophic networks among the keystone shrub Lycium ruthenicum, three gall‐inducing pests, and 13 associated parasitoid species in the arid desert ecosystems of northern Xinjiang, China, reporting the globally novel stem gall‐inducing behavior of Scrobipalpa erichiodes.

Morphology of Antennal Sensilla in Doeringiella Nobilis (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Journal of the Kansas Entomological Society, 2008
Abstract The distribution and morphology of antennal sensilla were investigated in females of Doeringiella (Triepeolus) nobilis (Friese) (Apidae, Epeolini) using scanning-electron microscopy. Sensilla campaniformia and three different types of sensilla trichodea were observed in the scape and pedicel.

Transcriptional responses of Aedes aegypti chemosensory tissues in response to volatile DEET and citronella oil

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 526-540, October 2026.
Aedes aegypti females were significantly repelled by both volatile DEET and citronella oil in comparison to control (ethanol‐exposed) mosquitoes. Global gene expression changes were largest in the mosquito mouthparts, with notable downregulation of the three subunits comprising the mosquito CO2 receptor (Gr1, 2 and 3).
