Characteristics and Molecular Mechanism of Slow Vegetative Growth in Hexaploid Transgenic Poplar 741 With an Insect‐Resistance Gene

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4552-4567, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Polyploid plants frequently exhibit altered vegetative growth, yet the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study reveals that hexaploidisation of triploid insect‐resistant poplar 741‐line Pb29 significantly reduces growth rate, leaf area, photosynthetic capacity and organic matter accumulation.

Temperature‐Dependent Shifts in Multiple Indirect Defensive Interactions on Black Cherry

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
This study examined how temperature mediates multiple tri‐trophic defensive interactions involving black cherry (Prunus serotina) seedlings. Warmer temperatures altered the strength of some interactions—modifying the relationships between leaf domatia, mutualistic domatia‐dwelling mites, and foliar fungi—while other relationships, like the interactions

Hyphantria cunea (Drury) (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae)’den izole edilen bakterilerin insektisidal aktivitesi [PDF]

, 2017
The fall webworm (Hyphantria cunea) is a polyphagous pest with numerous host plants. In the present study, the bacterial flora of H.cunea was investigated to identify new organisms that can be used as microbial control agent against the pest.

Anything you can eat, I can eat better: Evidence of generalism from species to individual level in an insect herbivore

Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Most insect herbivores specialize on a few host plants; however, there are a minority of highly generalized species capable of feeding on hundreds of hosts. Generalism could emerge as a property of the species as a whole, while individuals would still exhibit greater specialization at more specific organizational levels.

Diet C:N ratio and temperature influence the performance and colouration of tobacco hornworms

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 708-716, August 2025.
Melanization can help insects deal with environmental temperatures, but melanin synthesis can depend on nutrient availability. We tested whether the diet C:N ratio and temperature influence Manduca sexta performance and colouration. Larvae performed better at the warmer temperature of 27°C compared to 18°C and had a lighter colour when fed a low ...

In-depth transcriptome and physiological function analysis reveals the toxicology of sodium fluoride in the fall webworm Hyphantria cunea

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Fluoride is an environmental pollutant that severely injures various organisms in ecosystems. Herein, the non-target organism, fall webworm (Hyphantria cunea), was used to determine the toxicological mechanism of NaF exposure. In this study, H.

Biology and management of the fall webworm, Hyphantria cunea (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) [PDF]

, 2017
The fall webworm, Hyphantria cunea (Drury) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), is a widespread defoliator that is native throughout the continental United States, as well as southern Canada and northern Mexico. It has been introduced accidentally into many parts of

Nutrition of host plants influence the infectivity of nucleopolyhedrovirus to polyphagous caterpillar, Hyphantria cunea

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture
Plants play an important role in interactions between insect herbivores and their pathogens. The ability of host plants to modify the infectivity of entomopathogens in herbivorous insects has been widely documented.
