Epizootiology of the Fungal Pathogen, \u3ci\u3eZoophthora Phytonomi\u3c/i\u3e (Zygomycetes: Entomophthorales) in Field Populations of Alfalfa Weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Larvae in Illinois [PDF]
, 2017 The influence of the fungal pathogen, Zoophthora phytonomi, on larvae of the alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica, was studied in three alfalfa fields in Illinois. Disease epizootics occurred in all three fields and disease onset was ob- served within a fairly

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Host Sex Discrimination by an Egg Parasitoid on Brassica Leaves
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2011 Egg parasitoids are able to find their hosts by exploiting their chemical footprints as host location cues. In nature, the apolar epicuticular wax layer of plants that consists of several classes of hydrocarbons serves as the substrate that retains these contact kairomones. However, experiments on chemical footprints generally have used filter paper as

Host and symbiont genetic contributions to fitness in a Trichogramma-Wolbachia symbiosis. [PDF]
, 2018 The fitness effects associated with Wolbachia infection have wide-ranging ecological and evolutionary consequences for host species. How these effects are modulated by the relative influence of host and Wolbachia genomes has been described as a balancing

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry

Effects of landscape context on herbivory and parasitism at different spatial scales [PDF]
, 2003 Local community structure and interactions have been shown to depend partly on landscape context. In this paper we tested the hypothesis that the spatial scale experienced by an organism depends on its trophic level.
