Limited sex differences in plastic responses suggest evolutionary conservatism of thermal reaction norms: A meta‐analysis in insects

open access: yesEvolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 394-411, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Temperature has a profound effect on the growth and development of ectothermic animals. However, the extent to which ecologically driven selection pressures can adjust thermal plastic responses in growth schedules is not well understood. Comparing temperature‐induced plastic responses between sexes provides a promising but underexploited ...

Benefits and costs of hosting facultative symbionts in plant‐sucking insects: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 30, Issue 11, Page 2483-2494, June 2021., 2021
Abstract Many animals have evolved associations with symbiotic microbes that benefit the host through increased growth, lifespan, and survival. Some interactions are obligate (essential for survival) while others are facultative (usually beneficial but not essential). Not all individuals host all facultative symbionts in a population, and thus there is

Occurrence of Chaetomidium arxii on sunn pest in Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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

Characterization of Lecanicillium psalliotae and Akanthomyces muscarium from Sunn pests (Eurygaster spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Sunn pests, which can cause significant yield losses on wheat and barley, are one of the pests whose population levels should be followed. Overwintering areas, which have an important place in the biology of the insect, provide an advantage in the ...

Biochemical characterization of digestive carbohydrases from Xanthogaleruca luteola and inhibition of its α-amylase by inhibitors extracted from the common bean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Xanthogaleruca luteola Müll. (Col.: Chrysomelidae) is a major urban insect pest on elm trees in Iran. Digestion in the alimentary canal of the elm leaf beetle is facilitated by some carbohydrases which are responsible for the digestion of ...

Chemical Ecology of Egg Parasitoids Associated with True Bugs

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Parasitoids representing some 15 families of Hymenoptera develop in insect eggs; three of these families, Platygastridae (= Scelionidae), Mymaridae, and Encyrtidae, are associated with Heteroptera. Several species of heteropteran egg parasitoids are or may be important for biological pest control.

Predictive Association between Trait Data and Ecogeographic Data for Nordic Barley Landraces

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 2418-2430, November–December 2010., 2010
Focused Identification of Germplasm (FIGS) is a new method to select plant genetic resources for the improvement of food crops. Traditional cultivars (landraces) and crop wild relatives (CWR) provide a valuable source for novel alleles in crop improvement programs, but conserved landraces and CWR often lack important documentation. Genebank collections
