Variation in physiological host range in three strains of two species of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Knowledge of the host range of a biocontrol agent (BCA) is fundamental. Host range determines the BCA's economic potential, as well as the possible risk for non-target organisms. Entomopathogenic fungal strains belonging to the genus Beauveria are widely

Control of Woolly Apple Aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum) by Augmenting Earwigs (Forficula auricularia) in the Canopy of Apple Trees

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 1, Page 61-73, January 2026.
Apple trees provisioned with five earwigs and a refuge made a small but not significant contribution to woolly apple aphid control. ABSTRACT Woolly apple aphid, Eriosoma lanigerum (Hausmann), is a damaging pest of apple (Malus domestica F.) found in most regions of the world where apples grow.

Ecological plasticity and genetic diversity of the mango blossom gall midge, Procontarinia Mangiferae (Felt), in Reunion Island : O306F12 Ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Phytophagous insects that belong to the Cecidomyiidae family are among the most closely associated with their host plants. Phytophagous insects can specialize not only on a unique host plant but on particular parts of plants as well.

The Hidden Diptera Diversity in Aristolochia Trap‐Flowers: Revealing the Identity of Pollinators Through Taxonomic Knowledge

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1502-1512, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Although Diptera is one of the most diverse insect orders with a high potential for pollinating plants, it remains poorly studied and neglected. This is partly due to limited taxonomic efforts in species identification. For instance, despite being primary pollinators of trap flowers, species‐level identification in these systems remains scarce.

The magnitude of cryptic insect diversity in one tropical rainforest

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1163-1174, November 2025.
We detected 214 cryptic species out of a total of 2006 species (10.6%) examined from 22 focal insect taxa in 1500 ha tropical rainforest in Panama. The percentage of cryptic species varied greatly among assemblages (0%–19%), with half of the assemblages devoid of cryptic species and the highest proportions of cryptics in Pieridae and Formicidae ...

Dasineura asteriae Reprograms the Flower Gene Expressions of Vegetative Organs to Create Flower‐Like Gall in Aster scaber

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 11, Page 8217-8231, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Plant galls are abnormal growing tissues induced by various parasitic organisms, exhibiting diverse and complex morphologies. Typically, these galls differ significantly in appearance from their host plants. Here, we report that larvae of a parasitic fly generate unique, rosette galls on Aster scaber, a perennial herb. These galls develop from

Plant‐herbivore interactions in Atlantic Forest: A dataset of host plants and their gall‐inducing insects

open access: yesEcology, Volume 106, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Galls play a significant role in the plant–insect interactions in various ecosystems worldwide. Consequently, research on gall‐inducing insects and their host plants has garnered considerable attention in recent years, with a wealth of uncompiled data.
