Different Plant Viruses Induce Changes in Feeding Behavior of Specialist and Generalist Aphids on Common Bean That Are Likely to Enhance Virus Transmission

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV), bean common mosaic necrosis virus (BCMNV), and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) cause serious epidemics in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), a vital food security crop in many low-to-medium income countries, particularly in ...

An Effector TaCRVP From Tuta Absoluta Oral Secretion Impairs H2O2‐Mediated Plant Defense by Targeting Tomato SlCAT2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The Tuta absoluta salivary effector TaCRVP subverts tomato immunity by hijacking host catalase SlCAT2. Through a sophisticated dual mechanism, TaCRVP simultaneously promotes SlCAT2 tetramerization for activation and blocks its SlAdBiL‐mediated degradation for stabilization.

Plant Genes Benefitting Aphids—Potential for Exploitation in Resistance Breeding

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Aphids are phloem sap-feeding insects common as pests in various crops. Here we review 62 omics studies of aphid/plant interactions to search for indications of how aphids may manipulate the plants to make them more suitable as hosts, i.e.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Eutrichosiphum pasaniae (Okajima, 1908) (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Greenideinae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Eutrichosiphum pasaniae through Illumina platform. The circular mitogenome is 16,500 bp in length and composed of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal ...

Ant Diversity of the Xisha Islands: Community Structure, Exotic Species Colonization, and Ecological Functions in a Tropical Coral Archipelago

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
The first inventory of ants from the Xisha Islands of the South China Sea was compiled, revealing 21 species: 70% native and 30% exotic. Anthropogenic disturbance primarily drove exotic colonization, whereas island area showed weak positive effects on species richness. Most ants were omnivorous, with key mutualistic and seed‐dispersal roles.

Genomic Insight into Symbiosis-Induced Insect Color Change by a Facultative Bacterial Endosymbiont, “Candidatus Rickettsiella viridis”

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Members of the genus Rickettsiella are bacterial pathogens of insects and other arthropods. Recently, a novel facultative endosymbiont, “Candidatus Rickettsiella viridis,” was described in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum, whose infection causes a ...

Effect of female size on host selection by a koinobiont insect parasitoid (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2009
Body size is a main fitness component of insect parasitoids. We assessed the potential influence of maternal size of the parasitoid wasp Aphidius colemani Viereck (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) on its ability to parasitize the different instars of

Advances in research on autophagy in the maintenance of insect–microbe symbiosis

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a dual regulatory role in insect–microbe symbiotic relationships. Beneficial symbiotic bacteria in insects participate in nutrient exchange via the TOR pathway, whereas pathogenic microbes induce immune defense through the AMPK pathway. Autophagy‐related genes regulate development and pathogen clearance during this process.
