Effect of plant traps and sowing dates on population density of major soybean pests

open access: yesJournal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2012
A field trial was conducted to evaluate the role of certain field crops as plant traps in soybean fields. Maize, mungbean and sunflower were sown on the borders of soybean fields to investigate their ability to attract Lampides boeticus L., Bemisia ...

Vibrational noise disrupts Nezara viridula communication, irrespective of spectral overlap

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Insects rely on substrate vibrations in numerous intra- and interspecific interactions. Yet, our knowledge of noise impact in this modality lags behind that in audition, limiting our understanding of how anthropogenic noise affects insect communities ...

Infestation of Broad Bean (Vicia faba) by the Green Stink Bug (Nezara viridula) Decreases Shoot Abscisic Acid Contents under Well-Watered and Drought Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The response of broad bean (Vicia faba) plants to water stress alone and in combination with green stink bug (Nezara viridula) infestation was investigated through measurement of: (1) leaf gas exchange; (2) plant hormone titres of abscisic acid (ABA) and

Chemical composition of the headspace volatiles of intact cowpea pods and cowpea pods infested by Riptortus dentipes and Nezara viridula pests

open access: yesScientific African
Volatile organic compounds are released by plants in defense against herbivory feeding by insect pests. Pod-sucking bugs can cause 30–70 % yield losses in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) which serves as a major source of rich proteins and vitamins for humans ...

A transcriptomic and proteomic atlas of expression in the Nezara viridula (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) midgut suggests the compartmentalization of xenobiotic metabolism and nutrient digestion

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Stink bugs are an emerging threat to crop security in many parts of the globe, but there are few genetic resources available to study their physiology at a molecular level.

From Eggs to Guts: Symbiotic Association of Sodalis nezarae sp. nov. with the Southern Green Shield Bug Nezara viridula

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology
Abstract Phytophagous insects engage in symbiotic relationships with bacteria that contribute to digestion, nutrient supplementation, and development of the host. The analysis of shield bug microbiomes has been mainly focused on the gut intestinal tract predominantly colonized by Pantoea symbionts, and other microbial community members ...
