Performance of Fall Armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda Reared on Various Horticultural Crops

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The developmental performance and reproductive success of the Australian population of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were evaluated on five horticultural crops under laboratory conditions. Sweetcorn and bean supported rapid development, lower mortality, and higher fecundity (good performance); whereas capsicum, strawberry, and okra resulted in ...

The role of habitat simplification and seasonality in shaping interactions between ants, plants and herbivores in a neotropical savanna

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how chronic anthropogenic disturbances (CAD) and seasonal variation influence interactions between ants and plants with extrafloral nectaries (EFN's), with emphasis on the responses of ants, herbivores, and plants. Ant and herbivore diversity remained stable across seasons in the preserved cerrado, whereas the pasture had higher ant ...

Environmental stress influences reproductive success in male spider mites

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
This experiment explores how male juvenile food stress impacts reproductive traits in the haplodiploid spider mite Tetranychus urticae. Males exposed to juvenile food stress had lower reproductive success and females mated to these males also suffered reduced fitness as they were not able to produce optimal offspring sex ratios. The negative effects of

Chasing the perfida Albione: Anglo‐Italian productivity gap in the late 1930s

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents new estimates of Anglo‐Italian labour productivity levels in manufacturing in the late 1930s, derived using the standard single‐deflation approach. The findings confirm a substantial productivity gap between Italy and the United Kingdom at the aggregate level, alongside pronounced intersectoral heterogeneity.
