Release and Establishment of Megamelus scutellaris (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) on Waterhyacinth in Florida [PDF]

, 2014
More than 73,000 Megamelus scutellaris (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) were released in Florida over a 2 to 3 yr period at 10 sites in an attempt to establish sustainable populations on waterhyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes Mart.

A genome‐wide phylogeny and the diversification of genus Liriomyza (Diptera: Agromyzidae) inferred from anchored phylogenomics

Systematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 178-197, January 2023., 2023
Phylogenetic relationships are reconstructed among the Liriomyza leafminers using phylogenomic analysis of nuclear gene loci obtained by anchored hybrid enrichment (AHE). Trees inferred using multiple data types and analysis methods are congruent and individual clade support confirms morphological species groups and relationships among them.

Diversification of myco-heterotrophic angiosperms: evidence from Burmanniaceae. [PDF]

, 2008
Background - Myco-heterotrophy evolved independently several times during angiosperm evolution. Although many species of myco-heterotrophic plants are highly endemic and long-distance dispersal seems unlikely, some genera are widely dispersed and have ...

Rhizosheath: An adaptive root trait to improve plant tolerance to phosphorus and water deficits?

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 45, Issue 10, Page 2861-2874, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Drought and nutrient limitations adversely affect crop yields, with below‐ground traits enhancing crop production in these resource‐poor environments. This review explores the interacting biological, chemical and physical factors that determine rhizosheath (soil adhering to the root system) development, and its influence on plant water uptake ...

Multifaceted DNA metabarcoding of guano to uncover multiple classes of ecological data in two different bat communities

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1189-1200, July 2022., 2022
Abstract DNA contained in animal scat provides a wealth of information about the animal, and DNA metabarcoding of scat collections can provide key information about animal populations and communities. Next‐generation DNA sequencing technologies and DNA metabarcoding provide an efficient means for obtaining information available in scat samples. We used

Trust your guts? The effect of gut section on diet composition and impact of Mus musculus on islands using metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
In this article, we assessed the differences in diet estimates and potential ecological and economic impact measurements according to the section of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small and large intestine) analysed. We aimed to test which section(s) provided a better diet representation and putative impact of a common inland invader.

Damage byNeochetinaWeevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Induces Resistance inEichhornia crassipes(Commelinales: Pontederiaceae)

Florida Entomologist, 2013
Induced resistance in invasive plants might influence herbivore performance or preference, and hamper herbivore-based biological control management. Specialist weevils Neochetina eichhorniae Hustache (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and N. bruchi Warner (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are two herbivores commonly used to control Eichhornia crassipes (Mart ...
