Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

Oviposition Site Selection in Relation to Hatchling Feeding Performance in Two Sympatric Papilio Butterflies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated oviposition site selection and hatchling feeding performance in two sympatric swallowtail butterflies, Papilio xuthus and Papilio memnon (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), that utilize Citrus trees as host plants. Our study suggests that each species has unique relationships between maternal oviposition preferences and hatchling feeding ...
