Did maize domestication and early spread mediate the population genetics of corn leafhopper? [PDF]
AbstractInvestigating how crop domestication and early farming mediated crop attributes, distributions, and interactions with antagonists may shed light on today's agricultural pest problems. Crop domestication generally involved artificial selection for traits desirable to early farmers, for example, increased productivity or yield, and enhanced ...

Maize Bushy Stunt Phytoplasma Favors Its Spread by Changing Host Preference of the Insect Vector
Plant pathogenic bacteria may influence vector behavior by inducing physiological changes in host plants, with implications for their spread. Here, we studied the effects of maize bushy stunt phytoplasma (MBSP) on the host selection behavior of the ...
