Flea Beetle Control in Canola, 1985 [PDF]
Insecticide and Acaricide Tests, 1987 Abstract Plots were located near Humboldt, MN in Kittson County. Plots were 25 ft × 50 ft, replicated 3 times and arranged in a randomized complete block design. Granular insecticide was applied to each plot shortly after planting and incorporated lightly. Soils were clayey. Foliar applications were made when plants were in the cotyledon

Identification of cytochrome P450 monooxygenase genes and their expression in response to high temperature in the alligatorweed flea beetle Agasicles hygrophila (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) are a large class of enzymes that play essential roles in metabolic processes such as hormone synthesis and the catabolism of toxins and other chemicals in insects.

One Pathway Is Not Enough: The Cabbage Stem Flea Beetle Psylliodes chrysocephala Uses Multiple Strategies to Overcome the Glucosinolate-Myrosinase Defense in Its Host Plants. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2018 The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a key pest of oilseed rape in Europe, and is specialized to feed on Brassicaceae plants armed with the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system.

Identification and evolution of glucosinolate sulfatases in a specialist flea beetle. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractGlucosinolates, a characteristic group of specialized metabolites found in Brassicales plants, are converted to toxic isothiocyanates upon herbivory. Several insect herbivores, including the cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala), prevent glucosinolate activation by forming desulfo-glucosinolates. Here we investigated the molecular
