Was Dan Janzen (1977) right about aphid clones being a "super-organism", i.e. a single "evolutionary individual"? : new insights from the use of molecular marker systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Dan Janzen proposed in a paper in 1977 (loc. cit.), that a clone of aphids and for that matter dandelions consists, respectively, of one large ‘super-organism’.

From the predator to the prey: a case study of the vulnerability of Harmonia axyridis to aggressive competitors

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The level of aggressiveness of an individual is a factor that shapes intraguild predation (IGP) interactions. In Nabis americoferus, high aggressiveness leads to an increase in attack rate and IGP against Harmonia axyridis. Moreover, the absence of extraguild prey seems to exacerbate IGP. In docile N.

Colony and population genetic structure of the newly invasive white‐footed ant (Technomyrmex difficilis) in the United States

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The invasive white‐footed ant Technomyrmex difficilis has emerged as a rising pest in several regions, yet its invasion dynamics remain underexplored. This species outcompetes native ants and causes agricultural losses by tending pest insects, including aphids and mealybugs.

Estimating scale‐dependent covariate responses using two‐dimensional diffusion derived from the stochastic partial differential equation method

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to standardize spatially unbalanced data, project climate impacts and identify habitat for conservation. SDMs typically estimate the impact of local environmental conditions by estimating a dome‐shaped or non‐parametric ‘environmental response function’.

Polarization vision and the physiological basis for trichromatic vision in Philaenus spumarius: Understanding host‐seeking behaviour in insect vectors for Xylella fastidiosa control

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of vision in host‐seeking behaviour by Philaenus spumarius, the main European vector of Xylella fastidiosa, through an integrated anatomical, optical, physiological, and behavioural study. Our data highlight that the spittlebug uses visual cues, including polarized light, which may aid in detecting the polarized reflections ...

The propensity of different larval stages of lacewing Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) to control aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) (Homoptera: Aphididae) evaluated on Canola Brassica napus L. [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2014
Green lacewings (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) are considered among the most effective generalist predators of aphids. In the present experimentation, the use of 1st, 2nd and 3rd instars of the chrysopid Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) larvae against aphids ...
