ON THE GRAPE LEAFHOPPERS IN KYUSHU

open access: yesKyushu Plant Protection Research, 1963
Erythroneura apicalis, NAWA (nom. jap. Futaten-hime-yokobai) has been known as only one Japanese species of grape leafhopper. In 1961, however, one of the authors recognized another leafhopper, Erythroneura suzukii MATS. (nom. jap. Suzuki-hime-yokobai), attacking grape leaves in Fukuoka district. This may be a new record of damage caused by the species,

Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

A horizontally acquired pantothenate gene drives vitellogenin's benefit to whitefly symbiosis persistence

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This diagram illustrates that the horizontally transferred panBC influences the level and localization of vitellogenin (Vg) by facilitating pantothenate production and juvenile hormone (JH) biosynthesis. In turn, Vg shields symbionts by suppressing autophagic degradation in bacteriocytes.

Surveying: Leafhopper populations [PDF]

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1965
Rapid and accurate surveying for grape leafhopper population levels is essential to a decision for necessity of insecticide treatment within an integrated pest control program. These Tulare County studies indicate that counting the nymphs on only two leaves per acre gives as accurate an estimate of the population as did counting the nymphs on fifty ...

Regenerative wheat management: The relative effects of farm practices on the biodiversity of invertebrates

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Wheat in North America harbours a diverse insect community (565 morphospecies were identified in this study), and pests represented <7% of specimens collected. Regenerative wheat management promoted insect diversity without increasing pest populations.

First Detailed Record of Jikradia olitoria (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in the Swiss Southern Alps and Evaluation of Its Current Potential as a Vector of 16SrV‐Phytoplasmas

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Jikradia olitoria Say is a Nearctic leafhopper that was recently reported in several European countries. Given its role as the vector of phytoplasmas associated with Grapevine Yellows diseases (GYD) in its native range, its presence in European vineyard agroecosystems could represent an important phytosanitary risk.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.
