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 ...

Comparative study of architecture and geometry of the date palm male and female inflorescences [PDF]
The date palm, Phoenix dactylifera L. (Arecaceae), is a subtropical palm widely cultivated for numerous uses and ecosystematic services. The date palm is a dioecious species, which shows a marked dimorphism in inflorescence structure.

We investigated how temperature and relative humidity influence the parasitic fungus Hesperomyces harmoniae on the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis under controlled laboratory conditions. Abiotic factors significantly affect parasitism: High relative humidity increased parasite prevalence, development rate, and load, while both low and high ...

Long-term changes in communities of native coccinellids: population fluctuations and the effect of competition from an invasive non-native species [PDF]
1. We assessed the changes in abundance and community composition of native species of coccinellids (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) on deciduous trees that occurred between 1970s and 2010s, in the Czech Republic. 2.

Human activities have significantly modified habitats, resulting in a global biodiversity crisis. In this study, we leveraged the first national‐scale biodiversity survey based on airborne environmental DNA, comparing the effects of three human pressure indices increasing in complexity and scope – a binary urban–rural index, an index integrating land ...

Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi are major pests on wheat. Natural product‐based aphid resistance holds promise for the sustainable control of these pests. The current literature is discussed, highlighting knowledge gaps and challenges that need addressing. Abstract Cereal aphids, Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi, cause severe yield loss in
