Herbivory by a phloem-feeding insect inhibits floral volatile production [PDF]
, 2012 There is extensive knowledge on the effects of insect herbivory on volatile emission from vegetative tissue, but little is known about its impact on floral volatiles.

Soybean induced resistance to Spodoptera eridania herbivory
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.SOD, CAT, APX, PPO, KTI, and MDA levels were higher in the resistant soybean. S. eridania herbivory increased H2O2 and MDA, but decreased SOD and PPO levels. S. eridania herbivory increased KTI activity only in the resistant variety. Isoquercitrin and daidzin were exclusive to resistant and susceptible soybeans.

Pandora neoaphidis transmission and aphid foraging behaviour [PDF]
, 2005 Pandora neoaphidis is an aphid-specific entomopathogen that produces infective conidia. As aphid movement increases, so does the likelihood of contact with conidia.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Extraguild prey reduces cannibalism and intraguild predation in Buchananiella whitei, while first‐instar nymphs dominate most predatory mites, with outcomes affected by body size and behavioral traits. Abstract BACKGROUND Cannibalism and intraguild predation (IGP) are common interactions among predators that can influence the effectiveness of ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.We compared two island populations of Bethencourtia palmensis and their culturable endophytic fungi, revealing distinct plant chemistries and a higher biopesticidal potential in the endophytic fungi from La Palma population along with high potential for the discovery of novel compounds.

Soybean Aphid in Minnesota [PDF]
, 2003 The soybean aphid (Aphis glycines) is an eastern Asian soybean pest that is rapidly invading the United States. A recent immigrant, it was first detected in nine midwestern states including Minnesotain the summer of 2000.

Take flight: predation risk induces wing polyphenism and dispersal in the aphid Myzus persicae
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Predator risk above a critical density induces winged morphs in Myzus persicae, promoting dispersal and reducing predation compared with wingless aphids. This density‐dependent phenotypic plasticity enhances survival but may compromise biological control by facilitating aphid dispersal.

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]
, 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’.

Influence of the aphid pathogen Pandora neoaphidis on the foraging behaviour of the aphid parasitoid Aphidius ervi [PDF]
, 2005 1. The parasitoid Aphidius ervi and the entomopathogenic fungus Pandora neoaphidis both require successful invasion of an aphid host to complete their life cycle. A shorter developmental period allows P. neoaphidis to out-compete A. ervi.
