Interactions insectes-plantes [PDF]

Nature Sciences Sociétés, 1997
L'influence des modifications physiologiques de la plante en relation avec les facteurs environnementaux dans les relations plantes-insectes ont ete abordes durant ce colloque. Il s'avere que les reactions des plantes aux ravageurs relevent de processus complexes et souvent communs a de nombreuses especes vegetales et que ces reactions sont ...

Gall midges (Insecta, Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) associated with Clusiaceae in Brazil: richness and distribution

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
A literature compilation was done to gather information about Cecidomyiidae galls on Clusiaceae in Brazil. Botanical names were verified in the site “Flora do Brasil” as well as data on plant distribution and origin. Two herbaria were visited in order to

Two farnesyl pyrophosphate synthases, GhFPS1–2, in Gossypium hirsutum are involved in the biosynthesis of farnesol to attract parasitoid wasps

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
Sesquiterpenoids play an import role in the direct or indirect defense of plants. Farnesyl pyrophosphate synthases (FPSs) catalyze the biosynthesis of farnesyl pyrophosphate, which is a key precursor of farnesol and (E)-β-farnesene. In the current study,

First record of insect-plant interaction in Late Cretaceous fossils from Nelson Island (South Shetland Islands Archipelago), Antarctica

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023
Despite the enormous paleobotanical record on different islands of the Antarctic Peninsula, the evidence of insect activity associated with fossilized plants is scarce.

Small-Scale Habitat Conditions Are More Important Than Site Context for Influencing Pollinator Visitation

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The ability of insects to persist in urban greenspace depends on their ability to usefully interact with available plant resources. Greenspace design influences plant–insect interactions by: (1) limiting the plant-species pool available for interaction ...

The restoration of ecological interactions: plant-pollinator networks on ancient and restored heathlands [PDF]

, 2008
1. Attempts to restore damaged ecosystems usually emphasize structural aspects of biodiversity, such as species richness and abundance. An alternative is to emphasize functional aspects, such as patterns of interaction between species.

Historical records of plant-insect interactions in subarctic Finland

BMC Research Notes, 2022
Objectives Historical ecological records document the diversity and composition of communities decades or centuries ago. They can provide a valuable benchmark for comparisons with modern communities. Historical datasets on plant-animal interactions allow

Insecticide activity of a peptidase inhibitor isolated from Anadenanthera macrocarpa seeds against Anagasta kuehniella

Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2022
Protease inhibitors (PIs) are a part of the plant defense system and reduce the proteolytic activity of the digestive enzymes of insect pests. The current study aimed to isolate and characterize an inhibitor of trypsin (AmTI) within the seed of ...

The influence of surface energy on the self-cleaning of insect adhesive devices [PDF]

, 2012
The ability of insects to adhere to surfaces is facilitated by the use of adhesive organs found on the terminal leg segments. These adhesive pads are inherently 'tacky' and are expected to be subject to contamination by particulates, leading to loss of ...

Insect Feeding Assays with Spodoptera exigua on Arabidopsis thaliana

Bio-Protocol, 2020
Plant-insect interaction is an important field for studying plant immunity. The beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, is one of the best-known agricultural pest insects and is usually used to study plant interactions with chewing insects. Here, we describe a
