Biocontrol against cabbage aphid Brevicoryne brassicae L.
IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology, 2016 The effects of the aphid parasitoid Diaeretiella rapae (M'Intosh), the predator Coccinella undecimpunctata L. and the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) on the cabbage aphid Brevicoryne brassicae L. were evaluated in this study. The effects of host densities on D. rapae parasitizing B.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Herbivore induction of the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system: major trends, biochemical bases and ecological significance [PDF]
, 2009 Like many other plant defense compounds, glucosinolates are present constitutively in plant tissues, but are also induced to higher levels by herbivore attack.

Digestive amylolytic and proteolytic activities of Brevicoryne brassicae (Hem.: Aphididae) on different canola cultivars [PDF]
نامه انجمن حشرهشناسی ایران, 2019 Brevicoryne brassicae (L.) is one of the most damaging pests of canola in Iran. Digestive amylolytic and proteolytic activities of adult aphids were evaluated on eight canola cultivars (Opera, SLM046, RGS000, Okapi, Delgan, Licord, H19, and Modena) using

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological control in high tunnel systems can be optimised by matching predator species to seasonal environmental conditions. We evaluated the predatory efficacy of syrphid flies (Toxomerus marginatus (Say), Eupeodes americanus (Fabricius)) and lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), Chrysoperla rufilabris (Burmeister)) across laboratory ...

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...
