The interaction of soybean plant and the endophytic microorganism Beauveria bassiana was evaluated by inoculating a single trifoliate leaf. The effects of this inoculation on the herbivory, larval development, and life traits of Spodoptera frugiperda were measured.

Nymphs of Mahanarva spectabilis produce a protective foam that supports survival, reduces plant damage, and contributes to adult population establishment. Proteomic profiling combined with protein sequencing and structural modeling revealed foam proteins enriched in functional domains associated with environmental resilience.

The Identification of a Quantative Trait Loci-Allele System of Antixenosis against the Common Cutworm (Spodoptera litura Fabricius) at the Seedling Stage in the Chinese Soybean Landrace Population [PDF]
Common cutworm (CCW) is an omnivorous insect causing severe yield losses in soybean crops. The seedling-stage mini-tray identification system with the damaged leaf percentage (DLP) as an indicator was used to evaluate antixenosis against CCW in the ...

Differential preference for oviposition — a potential indicator of antixenosis in maize genotypes against Sesamia inferens (Walker) [PDF]
231-238Host choice for oviposition by insects is an indicator of the antixenotic factors present in a plant. The expression of antixenosis in 20 maize genotypes against Sesamia inferens (Walker) was measured by studying its relative ovipositional ...

Abstract Wheat stem sawfly (WSS, Cephus cinctus Norton) threatens wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in the US Great Plains. Increased stem solidness improves resistance to WSS but developing solid‐stemmed cultivars requires time‐consuming and destructive phenotyping.

Influence of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Silicon on Soybean Growth and Development in the Field
ABSTRACT Applications of silicon (Si) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) to soils to increase plant resistance and plant growth and development are potential alternatives in soybean cultivation. Si and AMF promote growth and stress tolerance through increased absorption of essential micro and macronutrients, restriction of toxic ion uptake ...

Abstract This work documents the first occurrence of Etiella zinckenella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) infestations in soybean crops in Greece, and in particular within the Regional Unit of Drama, north‐eastern Greece. Larvae of this pest inflict direct damage by feeding on seeds and cause indirect damage by reducing crop marketability, resulting in ...
