Association of Root Rot Disease With Common Bean Stem Maggot (Ophyiomia phaseoli) and Testing of Insecticides for Stem Maggot Control on Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in West Hararghe, Ethiopia

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bean stem maggot (BSM) and root rot are significant pests of common beans in terms of economic impact. The wounds caused by the feeding of BSM act as entry points to root rot‐causing pathogens. The objective of this paper is to assess root rot disease associated with stem maggots and evaluate insecticides for managing stem maggots on common beans in ...

Predation of salamander egg sacs by the water strider Gerris (Macrogerris) insularis Motschulsky (Hemiptera: Gerridae)

open access: yesEntomological Science, Volume 27, Issue 4, December 2024.
Water striders (Hemiptera: Gerridae) are well known to prey mainly on insects that fall on the water surface but also feed on other organisms. Here, we report on the predation on egg sacs of Hynobius nigrescens (Caudata: Hynobiidae) by Gerris (Macrogerris) insularis from field observation and a rearing experiment.

Genomic hotspots of chromosome rearrangements explain conserved synteny despite high rates of chromosome evolution in a holocentric lineage

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 24, December 2024.
Abstract Holocentric organisms, unlike typical monocentric organisms, have kinetochore activity distributed along almost the whole length of the chromosome. Because of this, chromosome rearrangements through fission and fusion are more likely to become fixed in holocentric species, which may account for the extraordinary rates of chromosome evolution ...
