Defensive Symbiont Genotype Distributions Are Linked to Parasitoid Attack Networks [PDF]
Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2025.Facultative symbionts are widespread in arthropods and can provide important services such as protection from natural enemies. Yet what shapes defensive symbiont associations in nature remains unclear. We show that the symbiont Hamiltonella defensa's genotype distribution strongly aligns with sharing the same parasitoids, rather than host plants ...

Divergence in Coding Sequences and Expression Patterns Among the Functional Categories of Secretory Genes Between Two Aphid Species [PDF]
BiologyDisparities in the functional classification of secretory genes among aphid taxa may be attributed to variations in coding sequences and gene expression profiles. However, the driving factors that regulate sequence evolution remain unclear.

Using deep learning to assess the toxicological effects of sublethal exposure of a novel green pesticide in a stored‐product beetle [PDF]
Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4319-4331, May 2026.This study employs an AI‐driven multidisciplinary approach to increase our understanding of the toxicological effects of sublethal concentrations of carlina oxide on Prostephanus truncatus. Sublethal exposure to the carlina oxide induced changes in motor patterns and thigmotaxis, highlighting its potential role in integrated pest management strategies.

Antibiosis to Metopolophium dirhodum (Homoptera: Aphididae) in Spring Wheat and Emmer Cultivars. [PDF]
J Econ Entomol, 2020 Abstract Yield losses caused by pests, including aphids, can be substantial in cereals. Breeding for resistance against aphids is therefore desirable for enhancing the economic and environmental sustainability of cereal production.

Aphids (Homoptera: Aphididae) on Winter Wheat: Predicting Maximum Abundance of Metopolophium dirhodum. [PDF]
J Econ Entomol, 2018 In Central Europe, the most abundant aphid infesting the leaves of small grain cereals is Metopolophium dirhodum (Walker) (Homoptera: Aphididae). Annual variation in its seasonal dynamics was evaluated using a 25-yr series of standardized weekly censuses of winter wheat plots. M. dirhodum made up >50 % of the aphids on the foliage. Date of immigration (

Field-Evolved Sulfoxaflor Resistance of Three Wheat Aphid Species in China
Agronomy, 2021 Sulfoxaflor belongs to a new class of insecticides which are effective against many sap-feeding pests. Sitobion miscanthi, Rhopalosiphum padi, and Metopolophium dirhodum are the predominant pests coexisting on wheat plants.
