Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

, 1996 The diamondback moth is the most destructive insect pest of brassica crops throughout the world. Reliance on chemicals as a control measure for the diamondback moth has resulted in the development of resistance to many insecticides.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plants are dynamic chemical factories that produce diverse specialised metabolites essential for growth, defence, and environmental adaptation. Metabolomes, shaped by genetic architecture, enable plants to respond to abiotic and biotic pressures, including temperature fluctuations.

EVALUATION OF BACTERIAL ISOLATES IN THE CONTROL OF Plutella xylostella L. IN BROCCOLI
Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2018 The diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella L.) is an insect that causes great losses in Brassica plantations, which may reach 100% loss in some cases. The most common method to control this pest is still the use of insecticide. However, its successive and

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Benzamides boost crop resilience by inhibiting poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) to enhance stress tolerance and, through their antimicrobial, herbicidal, and insecticidal derivatives, they offer broad protection for sustainable crop improvement. Abstract Benzamides have emerged as potent stress inhibitors and growth promoters in plant biotechnology ...

Gut Microbiomes of Two Bamboo Locusts Reveal Divergent Metabolic Potentials
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.We compared the gut microbiota of two bamboo‐feeding locust pests, Ceracris kiangsu and Ceracris nigricornis, using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing for six geographic populations of C. kiangsu and publicly available C. nigricornis datasets. Both species were dominated by Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, but showed significant differences in community ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.Induced defense chemicals in plants determine the community structure of different insect (herbivore) groups. In particular, specialists are endemic and generalists are non‐endemic in the wild because of the ecological roles of induced secondary metabolites.
