A study of population growth of Sitophilus oryzae L. and Sitophilus granarius L. in single and mixed culture in wheat and rice : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Science at Massey University [PDF]
, 1983 Biological interactions between organisms which contend for the same resource, have been of interest to ecologists since the days of Darwin. Although this sort of association is evident for many animal-versus-animal and plant-versus-plant situations, one

The landscape and evolutionary dynamics of derived lncRNAs in insects
Communications BiologyLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) function as crucial regulatory elements in eukaryotes, yet have remained largely unexplored across diverse insect lineages. We present a comprehensive analysis of lncRNA atlases across 115 insect species, identifying 647,691
