Re-description of the sperm morphology of Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae)

open access: yesTissue and Cell, 2018
The corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis, which is one of the most important vectors of maize diseases, had the morphology of its spermatozoa described more than 40 years ago. However, the description is imprecise, requiring certain rectifications. Hence, we re-describe the sperm morphology of this species using light microscopy and transmission electron ...

Egg Parasitoids of the LeafhoppersDalbulus maidisandDalbulus elimatus(Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in Two Maize Habitats

open access: yesFlorida Entomologist, 2014
Maize plants with similar numbers of Dalbulus maidis (DeLong & Wolcott) and Dalbulus elimatus (Ball) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) eggs were exposed to egg parasitoids in seasonal and perennial maize habitats. Both leafhopper species were parasitized by Paracentrobia tapajosae Viggiani (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae), Anagrus breviphragma Soyka ...

Behavioral constraints on local adaptation and counter‐gradient variation: Implications for climate change

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 13, Page 6688-6701, July 2020., 2020
Our study provides unique insight into how behavior is modified to avoid costly reproductive attempts. Our results suggest a temperature tolerance constraint that shapes reproductive behavior and distribution. This suite of reproductive traits does not appear to coevolve with the latitudinal gradient in a coordinated fashion.

Phylo‐biogeographical distribution of whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Insecta: Aleyrodidae) mitotypes in Ecuador

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 11, Issue 6, June 2020., 2020
Abstract The Bemisia tabaci complex in Ecuador was studied with respect to phylogenetic relationships and eco‐geographical distribution. Whitefly samples were collected from natural and agricultural environments in nine provinces of Ecuador (latitude, 2° N–5° S; longitude, 78°–81° W).

Effects of Phloem-Feeding Pest, Dalbulus maidis on Morphological Expression of Drought-Tolerant Traits in Maize

open access: yesStresses, 2022
Drought is amongst the most important stressors affecting maize production globally. Existing strategies to offset drought impacts are centered around the rapid development of drought-tolerant cultivars through plant breeding. However, under both current

Sampling Methodology of a Key Pest: Technique and Sampling Unit for Evaluation of Leafhopper Dalbulus maidis Populations in Maize Crops

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
Maize (Zea mays) is the most consumed food in the world. The leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis, (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is one of the most important maize pests, and due to its direct and indirect damage, it can cause losses of up to 100%. Sampling plans are

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.
