High‐Throughput DNA Barcoding Reveals Multi‐Trophic Networks of Plants, Leafminers and Parasitoids in a Tropical Dry Forest [PDF]

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 6, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tropical dry forests host highly diverse insect communities and complex trophic interactions, yet these networks remain difficult to resolve using conventional molecular or rearing‐based approaches. Here, we integrate long‐read DNA barcoding, non‐target sequence co‐amplification, and host plant taxonomy to reconstruct tri‐trophic interactions ...

Temperature‐Dependent Population Model of Apple Leafminer, Phyllonorycter ringoniella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) [PDF]

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 120, Issue 1, September 2025.
The temperature‐dependent population model of P. ringoniella was constructed. ABSTRACT The Asiatic apple leafminer, Phyllonorycter ringoniella (Matsumura), is a significant secondary pest of apple trees in Northeast Asia. To better understand its population dynamics, a population model based on temperature‐developmental relationships was constructed ...
