Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Beauveria Bassiana Triggers Soybean Systemic Resistance and Causes Sublethal Effects in Spodoptera frugiperda

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The interaction of soybean plant and the endophytic microorganism Beauveria bassiana was evaluated by inoculating a single trifoliate leaf. The effects of this inoculation on the herbivory, larval development, and life traits of Spodoptera frugiperda were measured.

Height and phytotelm size affect the invertebrate communities of epiphytic bromeliads in the Amazon rainforest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...

Nutrient addition, but not vertebrate predator exclusion, shapes arthropod communities and herbivory in a temperate forest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We experimentally manipulated top‐down (predator exclusion) and bottom‐up (fertilisation) forces in a temperate forest understory to test effects on arthropod densities, body sizes and herbivory. Predator exclusion had no detectable effect on arthropod density, herbivory damage or body size, whereas fertilisation increased herbivory damage and ...

Anatomía foliar en Aegopogon

open access: yesLilloa, 1973
Este trabajo aborda la histología foliar de las especies y variedades que forman el género Aegopogon. Los resultados de este estudio demuestran que su estructura es del ?tipo cloridoide? y que es posible clasificarlos utilizando únicamente caracteres anatómicos.

The role of habitat simplification and seasonality in shaping interactions between ants, plants and herbivores in a neotropical savanna

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how chronic anthropogenic disturbances (CAD) and seasonal variation influence interactions between ants and plants with extrafloral nectaries (EFN's), with emphasis on the responses of ants, herbivores, and plants. Ant and herbivore diversity remained stable across seasons in the preserved cerrado, whereas the pasture had higher ant ...
