Comparative Analysis of Mitogenomes in Leafhopper Tribe Deltocephalini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae): Structural Conservatism and Phylogeny

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2024.
In this study, we sequenced the complete mitogenomes of 14 species belonging to four genera of tribe Deltocephalini from China and compared them with the two previously reported mitogenomes for this tribe. Phylogenetic analysis of different combinations of protein‐coding and ribosomal genes using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference under ...

Global climate change‐driven impacts on the Asian distribution of Limassolla leafhoppers, with implications for biological and environmental conservation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
This study conducted a comprehensive analysis of the distribution of Limassolla based on different Shared Socio‐economic Pathways and climate scenarios, incorporating theories and methods from insect ecology, environmental ecology, and biogeography. The results indicated that Limassolla is mainly distributed in East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia,

Changes in Tea Plant Secondary Metabolite Profiles as a Function of Leafhopper Density and Damage

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Insect herbivores have dramatic effects on the chemical composition of plants. Many of these induced metabolites contribute to the quality (e.g., flavor, human health benefits) of specialty crops such as the tea plant (Camellia sinensis).

iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic analysis of defense responses of two tea cultivars to Empoasca onukii Matsuda feeding

Beverage Plant Research
Empoasca onukii Matsuda is a pest which severely damages tea plants. In this study, an isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-based quantitative proteomic analysis was performed to compare the leaves of two tea cultivars 'Huangjinya'

Genetic differentiation and phylogeography of Erythroneurini (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Typhlocybinae) in the southwestern karst area of China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2024.
In this study, the mitochondrial genomes of 10 erythroneurine species were sequenced, and sequences of four genes were obtained for 12 geographical populations of Seriana bacilla. The new sequence data were combined with previously available mitochondrial DNA sequence data and analyzed using Bayesian and Maximum‐Likelihood‐based phylogenetic methods to

Chromosome‐level genome assembly of the aster leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilineatus) reveals the role of environment and microbial symbiosis in shaping pest insect genome evolution

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 3, April 2024.
Abstract Leafhoppers comprise over 20,000 plant‐sap feeding species, many of which are important agricultural pests. Most species rely on two ancestral bacterial symbionts, Sulcia and Nasuia, for essential nutrition lacking in their phloem and xylem plant sap diets. To understand how pest leafhopper genomes evolve and are shaped by microbial symbioses,

Population structure and genetic differentiation of tea green leafhopper, Empoasca (Matsumurasca) onukii, in China based on microsatellite markers [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe tea green leafhopper, Empoasca (Matsumurasca) onukii Matsuda, is one of the dominant pests in major tea production regions of East Asia. Recent morphological studies have revealed variation in the male genitalic structures within and among populations. However, the genetic structure of this pest remains poorly understood.

Brochosomal-based defence against infection by the entomopathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana in the tea green leafhopper (Empoasca onukii)

Biological Control
Beauveria bassiana is an important fungal biological control agent against various insect pests including the tea green leafhopper (Empoasca onukii), but its field effectiveness is often limited due to low infection efficiency.
