Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Tomato plants control leaf sodium levels to limit damage by Spodoptera littoralis larvae

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Sodium is an essential element for animal growth and survival. Here we test the hypothesis that plants exposed to insect feeding can translocate sodium from the feeding site to other plant organs as a defense strategy against phytophagous insects, which need sodium in their diet.

Screening for Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) Resistance in Early‐Maturing Tropical Maize Adapted to Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

Rhizobia–Bean Symbiosis Increases Root Herbivore Attraction and Growth via Volatile Signals and Enhanced Nutrition

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The symbiosis between nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia and plants is considered mutually beneficial, yet its indirect effects on other organisms remain understudied. We examined how rhizobia symbiosis in Phaseolus vulgaris influences the behaviour and performance of Diabrotica balteata larvae. Specifically, we tested larval preference for nodulated (R+

Drought and Herbivory Have Selective Transgenerational Effects on Soybean Eco‐Physiology, Defence and Fitness

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybeans, one of the most important legumes, face multiple stresses including drought and herbivory. But the potential transfer of the interactive effects of these stressors onto the transgenerational plants has not been understood. We hypothesised that progeny from stressed parents will have enhanced ecophysiology and defence traits through ...
