Pest species diversity enhances control of spider mites and whiteflies by a generalist phytoseiid predator [PDF]

, 2010
To test the hypothesis that pest species diversity enhances biological pest control with generalist predators, we studied the dynamics of three major pest species on greenhouse cucumber: Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande ...

TREM2‐Mediated Cholesterol Efflux in Macrophages Inhibits Anti‐Tumor Immunity via Limitation of CD4+ T and NK Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Impaired anti‐tumor immunity is mediated by TREM2 + macrophages in non‐small cell lung cancer. TREM2 + macrophages prevent anti‐tumor immunity depending on the limitation of CD4 + T and NK cells. TREM2 promotes cholesterol efflux via ABCA1 to limit the production of CX3CL1 in macrophages.

First record of two eriophyoid mites (Acari: Eriophyoidea) on Cyperus rotundus L. (Cyperaceae) from Egypt

Persian Journal of Acarology
Eriophyoid mites offer a significant ecosystem service by weed control. They induce malformations (leaf rolling, erinea, galls, stunting growth, blistering), rusting, bronzing, damages of seeds, and transmit viruses to their host plants. During a survey

Soil Mite (Acari: Mesostigmata) Communities and Their Relationships with Some Environmental Variables in Experimental Grasslands from Bucegi Mountains in Romania

Insects, 2022
The main objective of the study was to analyse, for the first time in Romania, the relationships between five experimental grasslands and Mesostigmata fauna, considering: (1) the structural differences between mite communities; (2) the variations in some

Allelic Variation in Maize Malate Dehydrogenase 7 Shapes Promoter Methylation and Banded Leaf and Sheath Blight Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study maize chloroplastic malate dehydrogenase7 (ZmMDH7), is identified as a Rhizoctonia solani resistance gene in maize. ZmMDH7 is regulated by transcription factor ZmWRKY44 via pathogens challenge to elevate mitochondrial ROS and SA signaling pathway.
