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

Are Findings of Key Insect Metrics Generalizable Across Different Taxa in Malaise Trap Samples?
Malaise traps are increasingly used for global insect monitoring. However, it remains unclear whether patterns in total insect biomass from these traps reflect only changes in dominant taxa, or whether they reflect changes in other key community metrics and taxonomic groups.

Philaenus spumarius is the main vector of Xylella fastidiosa in Majorca, maintaining high infectivity on wild hosts and facilitating pathogen spread in almonds and vineyards. ABSTRACT Xylella fastidiosa (XF) is a gram‐negative bacterium naturally transmitted by xylem sap‐feeding insects that causes serious plant diseases.

Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...
