The complete mitochondrial genome of a grasshopper endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet plateau, Uvaroviola multispinosa (Acrididae: Oedipodinae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The grasshopper Uvaroviola multispinosa (Acrididae: Oedipodinae), is an agricultural pest to pasture and limitedly distributed in Qinghai-Tibet plateau of China. The complete mitochondrial genome of U.

Gonadulin and Insulin‐Like Growth Factor Involved in Rhipicephalus microplus Reproduction

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Insulin‐like growth factor (IGF2) in ovaries of Rhipicephalus microplus partially engorged females. Ovaries from females at different feeding stages were used to detect IGF2. ABSTRACT Gonadulin and insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) are neuropeptides synthesized by the central nervous system (CNS) of arthropods.

Extraction and Analysis of Grasshopper Potential Habitat in Hulunbuir Based on the Maximum Entropy Model

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Grasshoppers have profound effects on both grassland ecosystems and livestock production. Despite commendable efforts made by China in grasshopper control, completely eradicating or preventing them still remains a distant prospect.

A Rangeland Grasshopper Insurance Program

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1995
The incidence of benefits and costs from controlling rangeland grasshoppers on public grazing lands poses problems of economic efficiency and distributional equity. Public grasshopper control programs operate like public disaster assistance.

From leaves to defenders: How the amount and dispersion of leaf damage affect extrafloral nectar production and ant‐mediated protection in wild cotton

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Extrafloral nectar mediates interactions among plants, ants and herbivores; its contingency on damage amount and within‐plant uniformity is poorly understood. Here, we explore these factors in wild cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Herbivory amount drove increases in extrafloral nectar induction per nectary, whereas within‐plant variability in damage ...

Flooding affects fluctuating asymmetry but not growth of a riparian orbweaving spider

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
In a mesocosm experiment we assessed the impact of flood on aquatic insect emergence and on spider development using geometric morphometric analysis of fluctuating asymmetry. We observed 45% higher emergence in flooded mesocosm throughout the season. Spiders did not grow bigger but exhibited ~15% lower fluctuating asymmetry than in controls.

Using citizen science as a research prioritization tool to detect co‐occurrences of the invasive species Harmonia axyridis

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We studied co‐occurrences and potential novel interactions between the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis and local biota (plants, arthropods and fungi) across Argentina using citizen science records. We detected co‐occurrences (mainly Asteracea and Aphididae) and previously unreported interactions (predation, parasitism, interspecific mating and ...
