Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1896-1909, June 2026.Abstract Molecular identification of insect food webs can accurately reveal complex trophic interactions and serve as a foundation for understanding ecosystem functioning and advancing biodiversity conservation. This process typically involves DNA library construction, high‐throughput sequencing and subsequent steps, including data assembly, annotation,

Cost of parasite exposure depends on host ontogeny 寄生接觸的代價依賴於宿主發育階段
Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 592-603, June 2026.The cost of parasite exposure varies across host developmental stages, demonstrating that ontogeny influences the expression of non‐consumptive effects (NCEs). Mite exposure resulted in consumptive effects in fly eggs and NCEs in early‐stage pupae; mite longevity was comparable when provisioned with pupae or water but increased when provisioned with ...

The roles of olfaction and vision in host-plant finding by the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella
, 2006 The relative roles of olfaction and vision in the crepuscular host-finding process of a major lepidopteran pest of cruciferous crops, the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella are investigated in a series of laboratory and semi-field experiments.

Virulence of the plant-associated endophytic fungus Lecanicillium muscarium to diamondback moth larvae [PDF]
, 2019 Plutella xylostella (diamondback moth) is a prominent pest of brassicas which is now resistant to most insecticides. Despite years of research, the range of available products used in biological control of diamondback moth is still somewhat limited.

Imported insecticide resistance in diamondback moth
New Zealand Plant Protection, 2000 Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine whether resistance in an Australian population of diamondback moth could be conferred to a local susceptible population of diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) Bioassays with larvae showed a 715fold difference in response at the LC50 to alphacypermethrin between the resistant imported and local ...

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT The Australian Crop Mirid (ACM), Sidnia kinbergi Stål (Hemiptera: Miridae), is highly polyphagous and is endemic to Australia. It is widely distributed across Australia and New Zealand and feeds on a wide range of agricultural crops. ACM has traditionally been a pest of forage crops and legumes but has recently emerged as a key pest of several

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.ABSTRACT Plutella xylostella, diamondback moth, is a major invasive worldwide pest. In Australia, a local Plutella known as P. australiana is almost morphologically indistinguishable from P. xylostella. Therefore, we developed a PCR–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) assay targeting the mitochondrial COI gene to differentiate the two ...

A single hot event that does not affect survival but decreases reproduction in the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Extremely hot events (usually involving a few hours at extreme high temperatures in summer) are expected to increase in frequency in temperate regions under global warming.
