Elevated temperatures diminish the effects of a highly resistant rice variety on the brown planthopper

Scientific Reports, 2021
This study compares the effects of temperature (constant at 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 °C) on adult longevity, oviposition, and nymph development of the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens, on susceptible and resistant rice varieties.

Nitrogenous Fertilizer Reduces Resistance but Enhances Tolerance to the Brown Planthopper in Fast-Growing, Moderately Resistant Rice

Insects, 2021
The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), is a key challenge to rice production in Asia. Outbreaks of planthoppers are associated with excessive fertilizer applications; consequently, we examined planthopper interactions with susceptible ...

Nutrition, ecology and nutritional ecology: toward an integrated framework [PDF]

Functional Ecology, 2009
Summary 1. The science of nutritional ecology spans a wide range of fields, including ecology, nutrition, behaviour, morphology, physiology, life history and evolutionary biology. But does nutritional ecology have a unique theoretical framework and research program and thus qualify as a field of research in its own right? 2.
