Leafhopper Injury to Legumes

open access: yesJournal of Economic Entomology, 1929
A brief report on preliminary studies, during 1928, of leafhopper injury to legumes. Among the 15 species of Homoptera tested in cages on various legumes, only Empoasca fabae (Harris) caused the injury, which was serious on alfalfa, red clover, white clover, non-pubescent soybean, peanut, and sainfoin.

Annual flower strips under the ‘Sweden Blossom’ initiative – how do they perform for pollinators, natural enemies and herbivores?

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 458-470, August 2026.
Pollinator‐targeted annual flower strips increase abundances of pollinators but also natural enemies and herbivores. Natural enemies and herbivores disperse in a taxon‐specific manner into nearby crops. Pest control by ground‐dwellers slightly increases in crop areas near the flower strips.

Prey Range and Voracity of Main Insect Natural Enemies of Pests in Corsican Clementine Orchards

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 851-862, August 2026.
To assess the biocontrol potential on the main arthropod pests of clementine orchards in Corsica, laboratory experiments were carried out using five potential predators. Their prey range and voracity were tested on three pest species. Then, a global predation rate index was calculated at the scale of the entire community of insect predators.

Development of PCR, LAMP and HRM‐Based Molecular Species Diagnostic Tools for Identifying Four Agricultural Pests in the Genus Helicoverpa (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 900-913, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Within the subfamily Heliothinae, the genus Helicoverpa comprises several highly destructive agricultural pests, including H. armigera, H. assulta, H. punctigera and H. zea. These species cause significant global crop losses due to their wide host range, long‐distance migratory behaviour, and potential for interspecific hybridization.

Breeding for resistance to insect-transmitted viruses in barley – an emerging challenge due to global warming

open access: yesJournal für Kulturpflanzen, 2009
Due to global warming longer periods of higher temperature in autumn and winter are expected which may result in an increasing importance of insect-transmitted viruses.

Sap-sucking Hemiptera, tending ants, and Sternorrhyncha predators on Acacia auriculiformis saplings fertilized with dehydrated sewage sludge [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Soil fertilization with dehydrated sewage sludge accelerates the recovery process of degraded areas, improving nutrient concentration, and favors the development of webs with pioneer plants such as Acacia auriculiformis and insects.

Response of Ants to the Leafhopper Dalbulus quinquenotatus DeLong & Nault (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and Extrafloral Nectaries Following Fire

open access: yesSociobiology, 2014
Previous investigations of mutualistic associations between ants and plants bearing extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) or between ants and trophobiont leafhoppers have studied these relationships separately, but nothing is known on how ant abundance responds ...

Leveraging Existing Biodiversity and Zoonosis Monitoring Infrastructure for Integrative Plant Pathogen Surveillance in Natural Ecosystems

open access: yesInsects
Outbreaks of emerging and re-emerging diseases in both animals and plants are increasing due to climate change, globalization, land-use change, and agricultural intensification.

Faunistic Study of Auchenorrhyncha in Olive Orchards in Greece, Including First Records of Species

open access: yesAgronomy
The study of Auchenorrhyncha species composition in Greek olive orchards is crucial due to the potential threat of Xylella fastidiosa invading the region. Recent studies have begun exploring agricultural landscapes, particularly olive and citrus orchards.
