Geometric design of antireflective leafhopper brochosomes

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
In nature, leafhoppers cover their body surfaces with brochosomes as a protective coating. These leafhopper-produced brochosomes are hollow, buckyball-shaped, nanoscopic spheroids with through-holes distributed across their surfaces, representing a class of deployable optical materials that are rare in nature.

Biochemical analysis of metabolites in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) conferring resistance to Leaf hopper Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2023
The cotton leafhopper Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida) has emerged as a major threat, causing significant yield losses (40-60%). To address this, we aimed to identify cotton genotypes with superior biochemical traits for leafhopper resistance ...

The genomic basis of evolutionary novelties in a leafhopper

Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2022
Abstract Evolutionary innovations generate phenotypic and species diversity. Elucidating the genomic processes underlying such innovations is central to understanding biodiversity. In this study, we addressed the genomic basis of evolutionary novelties in the Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter ( Homalodisca ...

Host plant resistance promotes a secondary pest population

Ecosphere, 2020
Insecticides can cause secondary pest outbreaks that weaken the benefit of chemical pest control. These detrimental nontarget effects motivate the use of alternative pest management strategies such as host plant resistance and intercropping.
