Minimising insect mortality during grassland mowing: The potential of insect chasing devices
Insect chasing devices have a great potential to deter arthropods prior to mowing, thereby reducing mortality. The effectiveness of mechanical flushing bars is limited and depends on driving speed, vegetation structure and species composition. The blowing device is the most independent of external factors and therefore the most effective.

Aphids (Hemiptera, Aphididae) Chapter 9.2
Our study aimed at providing a comprehensive list of Aphididae alien to Europe. A total of 98 species originating from other continents have established so far in Europe, to which we add 4 cosmopolitan species of uncertain origin (cryptogenic). Th e 102 alien species of Aphididae established in Europe belong to 12 diff erent subfamilies, fi ve of them ...

Respiratory metabolism of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
The respiratory metabolism of different polyphenic forms of the pea aphid, including wingless and winged asexual females (virginoparae), sexual females (oviparae) and winged or wingless adult males, was investigated using a micro-respirographic method ...

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach
Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce

From Genes to Shapes: Exploring Local Adaptation in Carpathian Ox‐Eye Daisies
ABSTRACT Aim Historical processes have shaped the Carpathian biogeography, yet ongoing evolutionary forces continue to drive population differentiation. We aimed to test whether local adaptation in the Carpathian subendemic Leucanthemum rotundifolium correlates with genetic, morphological and environmental factors, and to assess how these patterns ...

Using the loess method to describe the effect of temperature on development rate
Temperature has a significant influence on development rates of insects and mites. Many parametric models were built to describe the temperature-dependent development rates.
