Metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses identify quinic acid protecting eggplant from damage caused by western flower thrips.

Pest Management Science, 2022
BACKGROUND Western flower thrips are considered the major insect pest of horticultural crops worldwide, causing economic and yield loss to Solanaceae crops. The eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) resistance against thrips remains largely unexplored.

Transcriptomic identification and characterization of genes responding to sublethal doses of three different insecticides in the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis.

Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2020
Pretreatment with sublethal concentrations (LC10) of three insecticides (chlorfenapyr, dinotefuran, and spinosad) enhanced tolerance to a lethal dose of the respective insecticide in the Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis.

Response of Protective Enzymes in Western Flower Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) to Two Leguminous Plants.

Environmental Entomology, 2020
The western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, is a major invasive pest of commercially important crops worldwide. We compared the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT) and the expressions of two putative ...

Thrips (Thysanoptera) of Coffee Flowers

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 2017
Thrips (Thysanoptera) are opportunistic insects that exhibit a wide range of life histories. Most species are either fungivorous or phytophagous, while a few are predators. In coffee agroecosystems, the presence of these insects is noticeable, especially when coffee is flowering.

Identification of Western Flower Thrips

1995
Western flower thrips (WFT) is distinguished from other Frankliniella species by the shape of antennal segment III, the size of the pronotal anteroangular setae, the position of the ocelli and interocellar setae, and the complete comb of posteromarginal setae on tergum VIII.

IPM of Western Flower Thrips

1995
Several management strategies have been developed for control of WFT based on the biology and behavior of the pest. The following IPM strategies are described for control of WFT: physical exclusion and screening considerations; cultural controls such as weed control around greenhouses, avoidance of continuous cropping, and disposal of plant residues ...

The male-produced aggregation pheromone of the bean flower thrips Megalurothrips usitatus in China: identification and attraction of conspecifics in the laboratory and field.

Pest Management Science, 2020
BACKGROUND Thrips, Megalurothrips usitatus, usually display aggregation behavior, which is probably mediated by a male-produced aggregation pheromone. Aggregation pheromones are species-specific, and can be used to develop commercial lures for monitoring

Selection of lethal genes for ingestion RNA interference against western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, via leaf disc-mediated dsRNA delivery.

Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2019
The western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, is a major pest that damages a wide variety of crops and vegetables. Following extensive use of insecticides, it has developed high levels of resistance to almost all groups of insecticides due to ...

Flower Thrips (Thysanoptera: Insecta) of Manipur

Indian Journal of Entomology, 2016
The present study reports the occurrence of 42 species of flower inhabiting thrips, belonging to 19 genera from the state of Manipur. The results reveal that out of 42 species 8 are endemic, and 7 are new records for Manipur, and host plants under 19 families harbour flower thrips.
