Development of an Artificial Liquid Diet for Allelochemical Delivery in Lycorma delicatula

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula White (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), is an invasive phloem‐feeding planthopper native to Asia, which poses a growing threat to US agriculture due to its broad host range and rapid spread since its 2014 detection. To better understand how L.

A Systematic Map to Identify Knowledge Gaps on a Vector of Citrus Greening Diseases: The African Citrus Triozid, Trioza erytreae (Del Guercio, 1918) (Hemiptera: Triozidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, citrus production areas are threatened by greening diseases, also known as Huánglóngbíng (HLB), associated with phloem‐limited gram‐negative species of the genus Candidatus Liberibacter. Those pathogens are transmitted by either the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), or the African citrus ...

Field Attraction of Natural Enemies to Methyl Salicylate Differs Between Annual and Perennial Cropping Systems

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is an herbivore‐induced plant volatile (HIPV) known to attract natural enemies of herbivores; however, its effectiveness as a semiochemical across diverse cropping systems and broad geographic regions remains unclear. In this 2‐year field study, we sampled natural enemies using MeSA‐baited and unbaited (control) yellow

Efficacy of baits and lures for weasel detection

Wildlife Society Bulletin
Small mustelids are difficult to survey due to their low density and cryptic nature. Population status of North American weasels (Mustela erminea, Mustela nivalis, and Neogale frenata) are believed to be in decline, but there are no standardized ...

Six Decades of the Sterile Insect Technique Applied to Ceratitis capitata in Israel: Evolution, Methodology and Socio‐Economic Perspectives

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata; Medfly) has been a primary agricultural pest in Israel for over a century. While chemical control remains the prevalent choice for its management, the integration of the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) into the management programme for this pest has been explored and implemented in various ...

Floral Trait Influence on the Foraging Decisions of a Fly Pollinator

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flies foraging for floral resources provide important ecosystem services through the pollination of myriad angiosperms, including many crop species. However, the specific floral cues used by fly pollinators to locate and discriminate among floral rewards and the preferences they may have for specific cues remain poorly understood.

Bait Response and Fruit‐Associated Abundance Patterns of Two Introduced Zaprionus Species in Tropical Orchards

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit‐associated drosophilids are expanding in fruit‐growing landscapes, but field information on bait response and fruit‐associated occurrence remains limited for recently introduced species. We evaluated Zaprionus indianus Gupta and Zaprionus tuberculatus Malloch (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in homestead orchards of the Agreste region of Paraíba,

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Olive Fruit Fly (Bactrocera oleae) Populations in a Mediterranean Olive‐Growing Landscape: An Eight‐Year Study From Samos Island, Greece

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae, Rossi) is one of the most significant pests in the Mediterranean olive groves, causing both quantitative and qualitative losses. Understanding its spatial and temporal dynamics is essential for effective and sustainable control of the pest.

Thermogenesis‐derived spatiotemporal microclimates guide pollinator movement to ensure pollination

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Alocasia odora's microclimatic heterogeneity guides Colocasiomyia fly movement within its inflorescence. During the female stage, midday heat in the upper spadix pushes flies down to the cooler female zone. During the male stage, nocturnal warmth in the upper part pulls flies upward and spathe constriction closes the lower female chamber.

Phenolic exudates from orchid seeds as nutrients chemically attract fungi

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Most orchid species require fungi for natural germination, but the molecular mechanism of this symbiosis is poorly understood. Cremastra appendiculata seeds secrete phenolic acids before fungal contact, acting as nutrient molecules to chemically attract its symbiotic fungus Coprinellus disseminatus.
