Do stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses share the same binding sites?

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Here, we tested if different stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses can compete for the same binding sites within the aphid stylets. We conducted sequential transmission assays of a potyvirus (ZYMV) followed by a cucumovirus (CMV) using Aphis gossypii as a vector and melon and pepper as test plants.

Toxicity of essential oils from Nordic plants against different pathogenic organisms and pests of cultivated plants

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Plant essential oils (EOs) represent a potentially effective, safe, and eco‐friendly alternative to synthetic pesticides that cause negative effects for human health and the environment. The present study evaluated in airtight glass chambers the toxicity of vapours produced by EOs obtained from sweet gale, balsam poplar, Labrador tea, jack pine, and ...

Yellow canopy syndrome of sugarcane: A review of current knowledge and future research directions

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Yellow Canopy Syndrome (YCS) is a complex issue affecting commercial sugarcane in Australia, first identified in Far North Queensland over a decade ago. It has spread across most cane‐growing regions in Queensland and poses a significant threat to the global sugarcane industry.

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 ...

Plant diversification impact on the oviposition response of a predatory bug in a laboratory set‐up

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Orius majusculus laid nearly twice as many eggs in cages with two different crop species compared with a single species. Depending on crop species, O. majusculus utilised different plant structures for oviposition. Crop diversification supports reproduction, and thus, is likely to have a positive effect on O.
