The smell of infection: Disease surveillance in insects using volatile organic compounds
Abstract Insects play crucial roles in nearly every ecosystem and provide a wide array of ecosystem services. However, both managed and wild insect populations face threats from parasites and pathogens, which require surveillance to mitigate. Current infectious disease surveillance methods for insects often involve invasive, time‐consuming and ...

Isolation and characterization of a baculovirus associated with the insect parasitoid wasp, Cotesia marginiventris, or its host, Trichoplusia ni [PDF]
A multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (MNPV) was isolated from Trichoplusia ni (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae that had been stung by the parasitoid Cotesia marginiventris (Cresson) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). The wild type virus was plaque purified by

Cortactin: A major cellular target of viral, protozoal, and fungal pathogens
Recent advances in research on various viral, protozoal, and fungal pathogens have deepened our understanding of microbial virulence strategies and human disease development. Cortactin, a key host protein involved in actin cytoskeletal dynamics, has emerged as crucial player in host–microbe interactions, with pathogens manipulating its expression and ...
