Transovarial transmission of a plant virus is mediated by vitellogenin of its insect vector. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2014 Most plant viruses are transmitted by hemipteroid insects. Some viruses can be transmitted from female parent to offspring usually through eggs, but the mechanism of this transovarial transmission remains unclear.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.The endosymbiont Wolbachia promotes homogenisation and delays the microbial community response of the parasitic wasp Asobara japonica after a significant environmental change. This suggests that key microbial taxa can mediate community shifts and has important implications for experimental design in microbial ecology, particularly in translating lab ...

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Evidence for high dispersal ability and mito-nuclear discordance in the small brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus [PDF]
, 2015 Understanding dispersal ability in pest species is critical for both theoretical aspects of evolutionary and population biology and from a practical standpoint, such as implementing effective forecasting systems.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, 27 January 2026.Rice gall dwarf virus (RGDV), transmitted biparentally by leafhopper vector to their offspring, exploits the capsid protein to induce inheritable ovarian apoptosis via insulin‐driven PI3K/AKT/FoxO signaling axis. This mechanism enhances infection but reduces female reproductive fitness, causing inefficient maternal transmission.

Insect I‐Type Lysozymes Function as Antiviral Proteases by Forming Biomolecular Condensates
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.Upon rice viral infection, the insect vector activates the Toll–MyD88–Dorsal signaling cascade, inducing i‐type lysozyme (Lyz‐I1) expression. Lyz‐I1 functions as an antiviral protease through its conserved catalytic dyad Glu/Asp (E/D), mediating cleavage of viral proteins at specific Lys (K) residues.

Characterization of rice black-streaked dwarf virus- and rice stripe virus-derived siRNAs in singly and doubly infected insect vector Laodelphax striatellus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Replication of RNA viruses in insect cells triggers an antiviral defense that is mediated by RNA interference (RNAi) which generates viral-derived small interfering RNAs (siRNAs).
