Occurrence of Chaetomidium arxii on sunn pest in Iran [PDF]
Chaetomidium arxii was recovered from dead, overwintering adults of Eurygaster integriceps in northern Iran. The species was identified based on morphological characteristics as well as sequence data from LSU and ITS-rDNA regions. This is first report on

Tissue-specific transcriptomic and endocrine signatures of obligatory reproductive diapause in Eurygaster integriceps [PDF]
Obligatory reproductive diapause is a hormonally regulated, developmentally programmed state occurring independently of environmental cues. Despite its prevalence in univoltine insects, the molecular regulation remains unclear.

A study to clarify whether sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps) increases amylase activity in wheat [PDF]
There is uncertainty as to whether amylase is injected into wheat kernels by the sunn pest (SP). There are conflicting results in the literature as to whether the amylolytic activity (AA) of insect-damaged wheat is increased.

Phylogenetic diversity of insecticolous fusaria inferred from multilocus DNA sequence data and their molecular identification via FUSARIUM-ID and Fusarium MLST [PDF]
We constructed several multilocus DNA sequence datasets to assess the phylogenetic diversity of insecticolous fusaria, especially focusing on those housed at the Agricultural Research Service Collection of Entomopathogenic Fungi (ARSEF), and to aid ...
