Dynamics of genetic variability in Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) during adaptation to laboratory rearing conditions [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Anastrepha fraterculus is one of the most important fruit fly plagues in the American continent and only chemical control is applied in the field to diminish its population densities.

Phylogenomic insights into helmet evolution in neotropical treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae): Conserved morphological complexity across five subfamilies

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Phylogenomic analyses of 2539 nuclear loci reveal robust relationships among major Membracidae lineages. Helmet shape complexity shows strong phylogenetic conservatism across genera, tribes and subfamilies. Pronotal modularity evolves across lineages, highlighting the developmental diversity of treehopper morphologies. Abstract We utilized genomic data

Over‐reliance on Completeness exposes ultraconserved elements datasets to non‐randomly distributed missing data

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Using nine arthropod UCE datasets, we show that the Completeness metric can substantially underestimate non‐randomly distributed missing data. Because Completeness only records whether a terminal is present per locus, it can mask concentrated missing data in particular taxa, leading to artificially inflated branch lengths and altered node support.

Intraspecific plant chemodiversity at plot level has contrasting effects on arthropod functional groups

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3732-3750, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant chemistry mediates interactions between plants and their environment. While intraspecific chemodiversity at the individual plant level is well studied, the effects of chemodiversity at the plant community level on arthropod interactions need more attention.

Microbe‐induced resistance involves priming of direct or indirect defenses according to the stage of herbivory

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 3256-3269, December 2025.
Summary Microbe‐induced resistance (MIR) encompasses a broad range of plant responses that mediate both direct and indirect defenses against herbivores. However, previous studies have addressed MIR in relation to either direct or indirect defenses in isolation, overlooking potential conflicts or synergies that may arise between MIR‐elicited defense ...

Sugar-conditioned honey bees can be biased towards a nectarless dioecious crop

Scientific Reports
The targeted pollination strategy has shown positive results in directing honey bees to crop flowers offering nectar along with pollen as reward. Kiwifruit is a functionally dioecious species, which relies on bees to transport pollen from staminate to ...
