Genome Sequence of a Small RNA Virus of the Southern Corn Rootworm, Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi Barber (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). [PDF]
The genome sequence of a novel small RNA virus, tentatively named Diabrotica undecimpunctata virus 1 (DuV1), was discovered from the transcriptome of the southern corn rootworm, Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi Barber. DuV1 has a positive-sense, single-

Male-killer symbiont screening reveals novel associations in Adalia ladybirds. [PDF]
While male-killing bacteria are known to infect across arthropods, ladybird beetles represent a hotspot for these symbioses. In some host species, there are multiple different symbionts that vary in presence and frequency between populations.

The ability of a solitary parasitoid, Dinocampus coccinellae (Schrank) to discriminate between a parasitized and unparasitized host, Coccinella septempunctata L. (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) was tested in the laboratory. AD. coccinellae female wasp was placed together with a host beetle and allowed to parasitize 3 successive times, and the time interval

Coexistence between similar invaders: The case of two cosmopolitan exotic insects
Abstract Biological invasions are usually examined in the context of their impacts on native species. However, few studies have examined the dynamics between invaders when multiple exotic species successfully coexist in a novel environment. Yet, long‐term coexistence of now established exotic species has been observed in North American lady beetle ...

Parasite microbiomes may influence host phenotypic manipulation by parasites. The presence or abundance of particular symbiotic microbes within a parasite affects the extent of host phenotypic change; for example, certain microbes may allow a parasite to induce more pronounced changes in host colour.
