Comparative Analyses of Gut Microbiomes in Hycleus cichorii (Coleoptera: Meloidae) Adults Reveal Their Distinct Microbes, Microbial Diversity and Composition Associated to Food

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
The study analyzed the gut microbial diversity and composition of H. cichorii with different dietary habits and genders. The results showed that an elevated richness in food composition corresponds to a higher diversity of gut microbial species in the host. It suggests that food plays a significant role in the composition of the gut microbial community,

Occurrence of a population of the root‐knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, with low sensitivity to two major nematicides, fosthiazate and fluopyram, in Japan

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 2, Page 698-706, February 2025.
This study indicated that significantly differences of sensitivity to fosthiazate and fluopyram between two Meloidogyne incognita populations, are due to different histories of nematicide use and a related factor is detoxifying enzymes. Abstract BACKGROUND The root‐knot nematode (RKN), Meloidogyne incognita, affects food production globally and ...
