Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 516-533, October 2024.Temperature‐dependent, epigenetic impacts on life history components, after treatment with putatively epimutating drugs (3‐aminobenzamide [3AB] hypermethylating, and Zeb hypomethylating). Upward arrows depict increased fitness of treated females, whereas downward arrows depict fitness costs of treatment, relative to fitness of water‐treated controls ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 758-787, September 2024.Monitoring invertebrates in cereal fields in southern England over 50 years (1970–2019) showed an overall decline in abundance. For taxa at the order/family level, 47% declined in abundance, 16% increased and 37% showed no change. Most functional groups declined, expect for pollinators—whose abundance did not change overall.

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 116, Issue 3, July 2024.The larvae of the swede midge, Contarinia nasturtii (Kieffer) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), feed on the meristem of brassica crops, resulting in galls that disrupt seed and vegetable production. The salivary gland and midgut transcriptomes of third instar larvae were examined, providing evidence for cooperative extra‐oral and gastrointestinal digestion ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 3, Page 1240-1248, March 2024.The gene Rpfmd, which determines female sex in Riptortus pedestris, was first identified. This gene is essential for the development of female‐specific characteristics during the embryonic, nymphal, and adult stages, but it has no effect on males. The Rpfmd gene is an ideal candidate for homing‐based gene driver genetic control.
