Responses of Adult Hypera rumicis L. to Synthetic Plant Volatile Blends
Molecules, 2022 The behavioral responses of Hypera rumicis L. adults to varying blends of synthetic plant volatiles (SPVs) at various concentrations in lieu of single compounds are reported for the first time. For this study, Rumex confertus plants were treated with two

Oikos, EarlyView.Landscape heterogeneity is widely recognized as a driver of biodiversity, yet its consequences for above‐ground, foliage‐dwelling insect communities under active grassland management remain underexplored. Patch‐burn grazing (PBG), which rotates fire across patches within a grazed landscape, is designed to promote spatial and temporal heterogeneity by ...

, 2007 Curculionidae With about 4 600 genera and 51 0 0 0 described species, the family Curculionidae is an order of magnitude larger than any other in weevils and comprises in excess of 80% of all weevil species. Its stupendous species richness is a principal factor in the large size of the Phytophaga and in fact of all Coleoptera, thus in Haldane’s ...

Oikos, EarlyView.The export of emergent aquatic insects is a critical energy subsidy for terrestrial food webs. While urbanization is known to alter stream communities, its effects on the size structure of these insect subsidies and the subsequent consequences for riparian predators remain poorly understood.

Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.
