Common bacterial blight of bean: a model of seed transmission and pathological convergence
This pathogen profile summarizes the current knowledge on Xanthomonas phaseoli pv. phaseoli and Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans, two phylogenetically distant groups of strains that cause common bacterial blight of bean. Abstract Background Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans (Xcf) and Xanthomonas phaseoli pv.

We addressed the numbers, kinds and evolution of cerambycid plant cell wall degrading enzymes (PCWDEs) by surveying larval midgut transcriptomes from 23 species representing six of the eight recognized subfamilies of Cerambycidae. We identified 340 new putative PCWDEs belonging to ten carbohydrate active enzyme families, including two gene families ...

Effects of Bacillus thuringiensis on the pine weevil Hylobius abietis were evaluated for the first time. A Diptera‐targeted strain was most toxic and could enhance forest protection against H. abietis. Abstract BACKGROUND The pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) is a major forest regeneration pest causing high levels of seedling mortality and economic losses.

Intrasexual mounting in the beetleDiaprepes abbreviatus(L.) [PDF]
The weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus shows three kinds of same-sex mountings: males mount other unpaired males, males mount males already engaged in copulation and females mount other females. Four hypotheses were evaluated in order to explain same-sex matings by males: (i) female mimicry by inferior males, (ii) dominance of larger males which affects the ...

Plants use identical inhibitors to protect their cell wall pectin against microbes and insects
Whether polygalacturonase‐inhibiting proteins (PGIPs) play a role in defense against herbivorous beetles is unknown. Feeding assays with the leaf beetle Phaedon cochleariae on Arabidopsis thaliana pgip mutants were performed. Fitness was increased when larvae were fed on mutant plants compared to wild‐type plants.
