Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

A defensive symbiont and a plant virus confer direct and discrete phenotypes to a cereal aphid in a context‐dependent manner

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Different BYDV‐PAV isolates exert contrasting effects on aphid fitness, including reproduction and winged production. Different BYDV‐PAV isolates have contrasting effects on aphid dispersal patterns. Aphid feeding behaviour is modulated by the presence of endosymbionts and plant viruses.

Forest edges buffer effects of agricultural management on bee–plant interaction networks

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural management effects: Organic and conventional crop margins host similar bee and plant species, but network structure differs: organic farms exhibit higher interaction diversity, conventional farms higher connectance. Role of forest edges: Native forest edges stabilize bee–plant networks by providing continuous floral resources and suitable ...

Regenerative wheat management: The relative effects of farm practices on the biodiversity of invertebrates

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Wheat in North America harbours a diverse insect community (565 morphospecies were identified in this study), and pests represented <7% of specimens collected. Regenerative wheat management promoted insect diversity without increasing pest populations.
