Insecticide‐contaminated honeydew: risks for beneficial insects
Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 2, Page 664-678, April 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT Honeydew is the sugar‐rich excretion of phloem‐feeding hemipteran insects such as aphids, mealybugs, whiteflies, and psyllids, and can be a main carbohydrate source for beneficial insects in some ecosystems. Recent research has revealed that water‐soluble, systemic insecticides contaminate honeydew excreted by hemipterans that feed on plants ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 15, Issue 1, March 2022., 2022 Abstract Most of the hundreds of citrus varieties are derived from spontaneous mutations. We characterized the dynamics of single‐nucleotide mosaicism in a 36‐yr‐old clementine (Citrus ×clementina hort. ex Tanaka) tree, a commercial citrus whose vegetative behavior is known in detail. Whole‐genome sequencing identified 73 reliable somatic mutations, 48%
