Prey preference and biomass consumption of Macrolophus pygmaeus (Hemiptera: Miridae) fed Myzus persicae and Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2007
The predation rate of the polyphagous predator Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambur) when offered two aphid species, Myzus persicae (Sulzer) and Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Thomas), was investigated.

Comparative transcriptomics and proteomics of three different aphid species identifies core and diverse effector sets

BMC Genomics, 2016
Aphids are phloem-feeding insects that cause significant economic losses to agriculture worldwide. While feeding and probing these insects deliver molecules, called effectors, inside their host to enable infestation.

Wing dimorphism in aphids [PDF]

Heredity, 2006
Many species of insects display dispersing and nondispersing morphs. Among these, aphids are one of the best examples of taxa that have evolved specialized morphs for dispersal versus reproduction. The dispersing morphs typically possess a full set of wings as well as a sensory and reproductive physiology that is adapted to flight and reproducing in a ...

Temperature variability homogenized thermal responses in an ectotherm community along a European longitudinal gradient

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change, through rising temperatures, greater variability, and more frequent extremes, is reshaping insect phenology and thermal niches, with profound effects for pest outbreaks. Predicting these impacts requires a clear understanding of species and communities' responses across geographic gradients.

Unmanned aircraft system-derived crop height and normalized difference vegetation index metrics for sorghum yield and aphid stress assessment

, 2017
. A small, fixed-wing unmanned aircraft system (UAS) was used to survey a replicated small plot field experiment designed to estimate sorghum damage caused by an invasive aphid.

Identification of Conditions for Successful Aphid Control by Ladybirds in Greenhouses

Insects, 2017
As part of my research on the mass production and augmentative release of ladybirds, I reviewed the primary research literature to test the prediction that ladybirds are effective aphid predators in greenhouses. Aphid population reduction exceeded 50% in

Evaluation of Acephate Metabolites Generated by Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Using LC–HRMS and Metabolomics Approach

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acephate is an organophosphate insecticide widely used. This pesticide can be metabolized into methamidophos, a molecule highly toxic. Both have demonstrated the ability to promote serious toxic effects on nontarget organisms and have been identified in surface waters around the world. Therefore, it is important to understand their behavior in
