Predatory Capacity and Reproduction of Cyrtorhinus lividipennis (Hemiptera: Miridae) Adults Exposed to Low-Temperature Storage and Fitness of the F1 Generation

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Low-temperature storage (LTS) is a way to adjust natural enemy development to meet field release needs and to protect natural enemies from the odds of long-distance transportation.

Effects of elevated CO2 on feeding responses of biological control agents of Pontederia crassipes

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 171, Issue 12, Page 998-1008, December 2023., 2023
Studies have shown that elevated CO2 will affect insect feeding guilds differently. Water hyacinth plants, Pontederia crassipes (Pontederiaceae), were grown under two CO2 concentrations (400 and 800 p.p.m.), with and without two biocontrol agents representing different feeding guilds, the leaf‐chewing Cornops aquaticum (Orthoptera: Acrididae) and the ...

Effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on survival and wing dimorphism of two species of rice planthoppers (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) under interaction.

open access: yesPest Management Science, 2020
BACKGROUND Anthropogenic climate change (ACC) may have significant impacts on insect herbivore communities including pests. Two of the most important climate-change related factors are increased atmospheric concentrations of CO2 , and increasing mean ...

Knockout of cryptochrome 1 disturbs the locomotor circadian rhythm and development of Plutella xylostella

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 30, Issue 4, Page 1035-1045, August 2023., 2023
The cry1‐knockout strain (Cry1‐KO) of Plutella xylostella was developed by using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. No daily temporal oscillation of cry1 was observed in Geneva 88 (G88) and Cry1‐KO, and cry1 mean daily transcription of Cry1‐KO was lower than that of G88.

Pest risk assessment of Elasmopalpus lignosellus for the European Union

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a quantitative pest risk assessment of Elasmopalpus lignosellus (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), the lesser cornstalk borer, for the EU. The assessment considered entry, establishment, spread and impact.

Communal rearing induces high predatory capacity in a solitary wolf spider and its potential in pest control

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Pardosa pseudoannulata is a solitary wolf spider and it is a major predator of pests such as Nilaparvata lugens in rice fields. The results showed that the survival rates of the communal‐reared and individual‐reared spiders were similar, but communal‐reared spiders were significantly more voracious.

Repellency Mechanism of Natural Guar Gum-Based Film Incorporated with Citral against Brown Planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Using of plant essential oil that coevolved as a defense mechanism against agriculture insects is an alternative means of controlling many insect pests. In order to repel brown planthoppers (BPHs), the most notorious rice insect pest, a new film based on

Stemborer‐induced rice plant volatiles boost direct and indirect resistance in neighboring plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 237, Issue 6, Page 2375-2387, March 2023., 2023
Summary Herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) are known to be perceived by neighboring plants, resulting in induction or priming of chemical defenses. There is little information on the defense responses that are triggered by these plant–plant interactions, and the phenomenon has rarely been studied in rice. Using chemical and molecular analyses in
