Transcriptome profile of cup-shaped galls in Litsea acuminata leaves. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
BACKGROUND:Insect galls are atypical plant tissues induced by the invasion of insects. Compared to the host leaf, gall tissues lose photosynthetic ability, but have higher soluble sugar content.

Herbivory‐Induced Stomatal Opening Triggers the Dispersal of an Invasive Insect Herbivore

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The invasive leafminer Phthorimaea absoluta uniquely manipulates plant defenses by inducing stomatal opening in tomato. This response, mediated by the stomatal regulator IQM1, enhances the release of the repellent volatile benzaldehyde. This volatile triggers the dispersal of adult moths, facilitates colonization of new hosts, and leads to rapid ...

Beyond a Technocentric Transition: A Diverse Economies Perspective for Social Justice in Circular Economy Business Models

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy, dominated by capitalocentric, technocentric, and eco‐modernist discourses, risks perpetuating systemic injustice because of its limited consideration of the social and of what is possible. In this article, we examine how social justice can be embedded into circular business models (CBMs)—key drivers of the circular ...

Irrigation and fertilization of Chrysothamnus nauseosus (Asteraceae) affect the attack and gall growth of Rhopalomyia chrysothamni (Cecidomyiidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Ecology, 2022
The quality of the environment and the host plant influence the development of the galls as well as the performance of gall inducing insects. The effect of nutrients and water availability on the development of galls induced by Rhopalomyia chrysothamni (

A formulation‐driven plant‐derived nanoemulsion for root‐knot nematode control in tomato: efficacy across pot and greenhouse conditions

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanoemulsion for root‐knot nematode control in tomato: formulation concept, proposed mode of action, and efficacy under pot and greenhouse conditions. Abstract Objective Nanoemulsion‐based delivery systems offer a promising approach to improve the stability and biological performance of plant‐derived nematicides.

Host‐induced silencing of the Minc09294 effector gene impairs Meloidogyne incognita and M. Enterolobii infection

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host‐induced gene silencing of the effector candidate Minc09294 significantly impairs Meloidogyne incognita parasitism, markedly reducing gall formation, reproduction, and the development of specialized giant cells, with partial cross‐species effects on M.

Automatic insect identification, counting, and monitoring techniques: a review

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Automated insect monitoring increasingly integrates optical, acoustic, infrared, radar, electrostatic, and biosensing technologies with artificial intelligence. No single approach is universally optimal; reliable deployment depends on task‐specific validation, representative datasets, robustness under field conditions, energy autonomy, connectivity ...

Galls as habitats: the inquiline communities of insect galls

open access: yesBasic and Applied Ecology, 2000
Summary Gall makers can be considered microhabitat engineers, because their galls provide both a food resource and a habitat that can be exploited by herbivorous and omnivorous organisms that do not feed on the galling insect. We compiled literature data on inquilines of insect-induced galls for 112 galler systems in order to examine physiological ...

Insect galls in three species of Copaifera L. (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae) occurring sympatrically in a Cerrado area (Bahia, Brazil)

open access: yes, 2018
The aim of this study was to characterize galls of three species of the Copaifera genus (C. sabulicola, C. luetzelburgii and C. depilis), which occur sympatrically in a Cerrado area from Bahia state.
