Characterization of ORF127 of Helicoverpa armigera nucleopolyhedrovirus
It has been shown that Ha127 in the genome of Helicoverpa armigera nucleopolyhedrovirus (HaNPV) has homologs in some other baculoviruses and encodes a putative protein of 192 aa. In this study, a sequence analysis showed the transcription initiation site in Ha127 gene at nts 188 upstream of the translation initiation codon ATG and a potential leucine ...

ABSTRACT Plants can perceive specific elicitors in the oral secretions (OS) of herbivorous insects and respond by increasing their defences. Whether plants can discriminate among similar herbivorous insect species and differentially modulate their defence responses against them is largely unknown.

Chemiluminescent Tags for Tracking Insect Movement in Darkness: Application to Moth Photo-Orientation [PDF]
The flight tracks of Manduca sexta (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) flying toward a 5 watt incandescent light bulb were recorded under low light conditions with the aid of a camera-mounted photomultiplier and a glowing marker technique.

ABSTRACT Insect‐derived molecular cues can prime plant defences against herbivore attack. The genes that are sensitive to priming, and how their expression changes on the scale of days, have not been fully resolved. Moreover, priming may affect interactions with insects that are not the source of the priming cue.

Many insect pigments are localized in subcellular pigment granules, and transport of pigment precursors from the cytoplasm is accomplished by ABC proteins. Drosophila melanogaster has three half-transporter genes (white, scarlet, and brown, all affecting

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Coevolutionary arms races between plants and insects, in which gains of novel plant defences select for counteradaptations in herbivores, are key drivers of biodiversity.

Bifenthrin Baseline Susceptibility and Evaluation of Simulated Aerial Applications in \u3ci\u3eStriacosta albicosta\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [PDF]
Striacosta albicosta (Smith) is a maize pest that has recently expanded its geographical range into the eastern United States and southeastern Canada. Aerial application of pyrethroids, such as bifenthrin, has been a major practice adopted to manage this

Potential climate warming effects on the distribution of an invasive alien pest species
Drosophila suzukii (SWD) has low resistance to heat waves. The incidence of SWD differed between Illyric‐ and Pannonian climate zone. Desert days (frequency) only increased in the Pannonian zone. Abstract Climate warming can be a powerful driver for the establishment and further spread of alien species by lowering the abiotic resistance of native ...
