Long‐term population dynamics of western tent caterpillars: History, trends and causes of cycles
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.The length and in‐depth nature of this population study make it unique. It represents perhaps the most extensive monitoring of viral infection in a wild insect population. We have used laboratory and field experiments to test many hypotheses about mechanisms that potentially impact the dynamics of this cyclic species.

Evaluation of Finnish apple cultivars (Malus domestica Borkh.)
Agricultural and Food Science, 2020 The purpose of this research was to study apple cultivars obtained from Luke (previously MTT Piikkiö, Finland) in order to have good candidates for breeding within the central zone of Russia. The studies were carried out in accordance with the methods of cultivar study and artificial freezing by modeling damaging factors using a freezing chamber.

Plant Species Biology, EarlyView.Can calcium oxalate crystals protect plants against herbivorous insects? These Hazel leaves are consumed by caterpillars despite their high content of mineral druses (right image, arrows. Scale bar = 100 μm). This study illustrates what happens to crystals and caterpillars after the meal.

Frequency of a natural truncated allele of MdMLO19 in the germplasm of Malus domestica [PDF]
Molecular Breeding, 2017 Podosphaera leucotricha is the causal agent of powdery mildew (PM) in apple. To reduce the amount of fungicides required to control this pathogen, the development of resistant apple cultivars should become a priority. Resistance to PM was achieved in various crops by knocking out specific members of the MLO gene family that are responsible for PM ...

Comparative analysis of plant immune receptor architectures uncovers host proteins likely targeted by pathogens. [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: Plants deploy immune receptors to detect pathogen-derived molecules and initiate defense responses. Intracellular plant immune receptors called nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins contain a central nucleotide-binding (NB ...
